Therefore, the intake of jatoba pulp should not be excessive because 100 g contain 468.15 mg of sodium, which represents about 30% of the adequate daily intake (1.5 g/day) according to the DRI (2005).
Camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia) has only 11.13 mg sodium/100 g (Akter et al., 2011), since it is not common for natural foods, such as fruits, to contain large amounts of this mineral. The pulp of mango (28.91 mg/kg), kiwifruit (25.02 mg/kg) and mangosteen (24.25 mg/kg) has also lower sodium contribution than that found in the jatoba pulp and in it seed (251.49 mg/100 g)
