The government lies.
It doesn't matter when or where you read this, it's always true.
Yes and no. It depends on the part of the government in question.
Take the Government Accountability Office. I pretty much trust anything they put out. The same goes for NASA, and until this year, NOAA.
OSHA also tends to get a pass.
Homeland Security or the FBI? My sodium intake becomes dangerously high.
And that's even before Trump returned to power.
Perhaps switch to black salt?
The expression is, take it with a grain of salt.
https://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/take-with-a-grain-of-salt.html
The subtext being that the FBI and Homeland Security lie so much, that if you take everything they say with a grain of salt, you'll be at risk of dying from too much salt.
They say "Take it with a grain of salt." and not "Take it with a grain of Sea Salt.".
So I am just saying - Use black salt for the grains and you get less Na per grain.
Black salt is nice, but it's not low in sodium, it's just high in iron.
I am not going to try understanding your reasoning behind saying that nor try to explain ratio and proportions.
