Sodium & Your Blood Pressure Poster 18" x 24"

Cutting back on salt is one of the fastest ways to lower your numbers. This clean, modern 18" x 24" poster combines everything patients and clients need to know about sodium and blood pressure in one place — the daily sodium limits, the American Heart Association blood pressure categories, and a simple lower-sodium shopping guide. At a glance, it shows the key numbers — 2,300 mg daily limit for most adults, 1,500 mg ideal with high blood pressure, and 3,400 mg the average American actually eats — alongside the AHA “Know your numbers” chart from Normal through Hypertensive Crisis. The Build a lower-sodium plate section pairs “Choose more” foods that are naturally low in sodium with “Choose less” foods where the salt hides (deli meats, canned soups, frozen dinners, breads, cheeses, and salty condiments), plus an intro to the DASH eating plan for lowering blood pressure. Perfect for clinics, dietitians, health educators, and worksite wellness, and a professional fit for exam rooms, health fairs, and classrooms. For general education only — not a substitute for medical advice. Sources: American Heart Association; USDA. Mockups not to scale; frame not included.
