Introduction: High sodium intake contributes to arterial hypertension; the relationship between high blood pressure and human aging is stronger among populations with high sodium intake.
Objectives: The aim of this research is to compare subjective and objective methods on the estimate of the consumption of sodium.
Methods: This is a retrospective investigation along with secondary topics from the raw data base. The subjective method used was result of the score of the application of a questionary about the sodium intake, where the sodium consumption report was converted into daily mg of sodium intake. The objective method was the result of the urine excretion of hypertensive persons older than 50 years during 24 hours. The topics were analyzed by the software SPSS using the Spearman correlation.
Results: The main results did not show a significant linear correlation between the values of the sodium intake reported in the questionnaire and the values of the sodium (Na) 24 h collections.
Conclusion: New studies possibly will elucidate the present results among the divergence faced with other studies.

The incidence of type 2 diabetes has risen globally, in parallel with the obesity epidemic and environments promoting a sedentary lifestyle and low-quality diet. There has been scrutiny of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) as a driver of type 2 diabetes, underscored by their increasing availability and intake worldwide, across countries of all incomes. This narrative review addresses the accumulated evidence from investigations of the trends in UPF consumption and the relationship with type 2 diabetes incidence.

This population-based, nationally representative cross-sectional study assessed the daily salt consumption status and its associated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors using weighted data from the STEPwise approach to noncommunicable disease risk factor surveillance conducted in 2018 in Bangladesh. It included a non-institutionalized adults' population of 6189 men and women aged 18-69 years. Their daily salt consumption was estimated using the spot urine sodium concentration following the Tanaka equation and reported according to the standard nomenclature proposed by the World Hypertension League and partner organizations involved in dietary salt reduction.

Although long-term high dietary sodium consumption often aggravates hypertension and bone loss, sodium in the intestinal lumen has been known to promote absorption of nutrients and other ions, e.g., glucose and calcium.
