                                According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), most Americans consume more than 70% of their daily sodium intake from packaged and prepared foods, not from table salt. While Diet Pepsi is a processed beverage, its sodium content is relatively low compared to many other items in a typical diet.
