The guideline for sodium for packaged products are no more then 1mg sodium per 1 calorie. So, something with 100 calories per serving, should have no more then 100 mg of sodium per serving. For condiments, depending on the one and the use, I am more lenient, allowing up to 4/1 or sometimes more.
The numbers you present for sodium is in grams (not mg) and in ml, not calories.
.72 grams is 720 milligrams (mg). Now you have to find the calories and then you can make the correct comparison. I am guess this is going to be very high in sodium
Many of the food sites we use and recommend ship to over 150 countries. These include vitacost, iherb, Amazon.
The best two out there are Pacific low sodium and Kitchen Basics unsalted.
