Researchers assessed the effectiveness of a smartphone application for measuring sodium consumption.
By Pooja Toshniwal PahariaAug 21 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM In a recent study published in Nutrients, researchers assessed the effectiveness of a smartphone application for measuring sodium consumption.
About the study The present study explored digital estimation via a smartphone application as a potential alternative to urine sample collection to assess dietary sodium consumption. The application has three color codes, i.e., green, yellow, and red, denoting low-calorie, moderate-calorie, and high-calorie foods, respectively.
Serological creatinine levels were monitored using isotope dilution-type mass spectroscopy, and eGFR values were derived from the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation. The mean intake of sodium intakes, as determined using the phone application and using the one-day urinary sodium levels, were 2,021 and 2,858 mg per 24 hours, respectively.
