The intervention group was educated in a single session to use the nutrition information panel on food labels to choose products which com-plied with the Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) guideline of <120 mg sodium/100 g food.The control group continued on their usual diet. At 3 months mean urinary sodium excretion was unchanged in the intervention (174mmol/24 h and 175mmol/24 h) and control group (167mmol/24 h and 161mmol/24 h),with no differences between groups.
