I think the three-pronged approach proposed so far is a good approach in terms of public education, collaboration from the food industry, reducing the sodium content, and the ability to actually monitor effectiveness so that we know the strategy is working. I think this is important in terms of a coordinated strategy, because if the public does not know about the importance of sodium, even though the food content may be reduced, they may simply add it back in.
