Why is the sodium content so high?

Not sure. Maybe to help improve the flavor since it has no sweetener. That is just a guess though. Maybe contact the manufacturer for a real answer. But on a side note I have been on this protein for more than 1 year with no complaints. The price is right too. Pea protein can be expensive. The flavored ones taste good, but have stevia in them. Sorry I did not have a better educated answer.

The can with 100% olive oil has 260 mg sodium.. The Low sodium can in Water has 45mg. Sardines are great for you. Love them

That customer was very confused and if you looked at the comments in the review that was cleared up. It does not contain sodium chloride. It was also discussed in detail in this question:

It does not state "low sodium" on the container. There are 430mg of sodium per tablespoon. 140 mg or less per servings I believe is considered "low," so my answer would be that it is NOT Low Sodium.

"No added salt" is the most accurate answer. The ingredients listed are just sardines and water, and that is one reason I prefer this brand. However, to me there is a mild saltiness in the taste of the sardines and the broth which is often part of the flavor of any seafood. The amount of sodium per can according to the label is 45 mg, or 2% of DV.

I have no answer as I didn't know it had. Yes, a lot of sodium, but in a big pot of rice not so much. Not good for that one mug of broth though.

The sodium content is 290mg, 12% daily value, that is per serving. There are two servings in a single cup.

Either way it isn't good for you. It has high levels of sodium, I love it but try not to eat it often.

Mary, I don't have a can at this time to check, but my wife and I are aware of salt issues and didn't detect noticeable sodium in our cans of Salmon.

There is confusion between the words SODIUM and SALT. Sodium is an alkaline mineral, and is a must for good health. Salt, the kind in the majority of our foods, and that most use in their home, is not the same as sodium, and is not healthy. Please go to YouTube, and type in: Sodium Versus Calcium Bentonite - Unique Healing by Donna Pessin.

There is no sodium listed on the ingredient label. If this is a critical issue, I would recommend calling the company; go to the company website.

The label says 0mg of sodium. I should also say that I can't really recommend the product. Its has a different flavor than the bacon grease that I have saved from my own cooking. Your experience may be different.

If you notice on the nutritional analysis of cheese they have a lot of sodium. Salt is the most predominate flavor of cheese. Maybe you don't like cheese.

If you look at the other Q & As, someone asked how many mg of sodium these have and one person answered 35mg while another answered 70mg. So they may have just doubled the sodium recently? I dunno, I usually order another brand and was thinking of giving these a try, but am not interested in salt-bombed 'dines either :)

This version has less than the Nongshim Spicy Chicken version and a lot less than another top-rated brand-name bowl that's here on amazon. So while sodium in ramen is always going to be a little high, this has relatively less. If you're worried about sodium, don't put the veggies in and don't put in all the powder into your soup. That gives you greater control over your sodium content.

Two grams of saturated fat isn't high in my book, you need a little bit of fat in your diet. They don't sacrifice flavor. That's probably why it's "so high" it's not bland or chalky like ON or Muscle Milk.
