after reading this I am still confused to the comparison of 1 teaspoon of salt to mg. equivalent. What is the daily requirement of salt.
Added by admin: recommended daily intake of salt for humans to consume is 2.4 grams of salt ( 2.4g = 0.14 tbsp ( tablespoon )), as they say, and you should have no more than 6 grams of salt per day apparently.

I am still confused as to how much salt by teaspoon equals 1 mg.

Added by admin: 1 tsp of salt weights 5.7 grams. One 1 gram = 1000 milligrams. And 5.7g = 5700mg , so the 1 teaspoon of salt weights 5700 milligrams. If it’s for ordinary consumption of salt intake I would stick with the grams only.
All rounded; 1 cup (us) measure of salt is 273 grams per salt amount. 1 cup = 48 tea spoons, 273 devided by this 48 tsp’s number pops out the ~5.7 grams per tsp of salt weight ( 5.69g or 5.688g ) x 48 is the 273g ( weight of cup of salt )! But it’s easier/better to use the calculator to save the time.
I will add mg’s into this salt calculator for you, if you like. Let me know Verla if you would like that. Maybe it would be practical? Thanks…
