    • Abstract:
      This study was undertaken to estimate daily salt intake by measuring urinary electrolyte excretion in 203 healthy children with age of 0-17 years. Daily sodium excretion increased steadily with advancing age from 7.56 +/- 4.02 (mean +/- S.E.) (mmol/die) in infancy to 43.7 +/- 22.6 at 1-3 years, and to 164.70 +/- 74.70 at 15-17 years respectively. The corresponding values of daily potassium excretion were 13.93 +/- 6.30, 7.12 +/- 4.70 and 30.90 +/- 31.20 mmol/die at the respective ages. When expressed per kg body weight sodium excretion proved to be the highest at 5-7 years of age, while the maximum of potassium excretion was seen during infancy. As a result, the sodium to potassium ratio increased significantly from 0.62 during infancy to 6.50 at age of 1-3 years without consistent change later on. No significant difference could be detected in electrolyte excretion between the groups with normo-or hypertension. The marked elevation of daily sodium excretion and sodium to potassium ratio occurring after one year of age may be accounted for by the introduction of adult type feeding pattern.
