Impact of salt intake reduction on CVD mortality in Costa Rica: A scenario modelling study.

The ENN 2009 and an analysis of sodium availability in Costa Rican homes, using the HBS methodology from the 2004 and 2013 national household surveys of income and expenditure [ 16 ], showed an increasing trend, and that it is therefore more conservative to assume it has not changed. 2.3 Counterfactual scenarios: Recommended salt intakes in the Costa Rican population Recommended sodium intakes in Costa Rica are represented by two different sets of goals: The first is based on the "National Plan for the reduction of salt/sodium consumption in Costa Rica 2011–2021 [ 11 ]", and complies with the goal set by the WHO of reaching a salt intake of 5 g per person/day for an energy intake of 2000 kcal/d [ 7 ].
