unlike potassium which maintains fluid and electrolyte balance inside the cell‚ sodium is a major part of the body’s fluid and electrolyte balance system because it is the chief ion used to maintain the volume of fluid outside cells. Sodium also helps maintain acid-base balance and is essential to muscle contraction and nerve transmission. The DRI recommended intakes for sodium for adults ages 19 to 50 years old is 1‚500 milligrams per day. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) for sodium for adults
