Salt Intake and Salt Need
Abstract
IN medieval England, salt was so precious that to be placed "above the salt" at table was a mark of favor and rank.1 By contrast, in modern society a household must be wretched indeed in which the low-liest individual cannot add salt to every mouthful of food. This widespread use of salt has received surprisingly little attention from nutritionists: indeed, in most nutritional surveys salt is not mentioned or is noted only in passing.2 Because of the increasing evidence that salt ingestion is related to the development of hypertension in human beings3 4 5 6 7 there is need for a general assessment of . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
