The aim of this project was to determine whether the average intake of sodium, potassium, and iodine of Lifelines participants in 2020 has changed compared to 2006-2007 as the result of initiatives and policy changes.
Note that the additional urine analyses are linked to the urine samples collected during the third assessment.
