  abstract = {{T}hiamine deficiency is a public health issue in {C}ambodia. {T}hiamine fortification of salt has been proposed; however, the salt intake of lactating women, the target population, is currently unknown. {W}e estimated salt intakes among lactating women (<6 months postpartum) using three methods: repeat observed-weighed intake records and 24-h urinary sodium excretions (n = 104), and household salt disappearance (n = 331). {U}sual salt intake was estimated by adjusting for intraindividual intakes using the {N}ational {C}ancer {I}nstitute method, and a thiamine salt fortification scenario was modeled using a modified estimated average requirement ({EAR}) cut-point method. {U}nadjusted salt intake from observed intakes was 9.3 (8.3-10.3) g/day, which was not different from estimated salt intake from urinary sodium excretions, 9.0 (8.4-9.7) g/day ({P} = 0.3). {E}stimated salt use from household salt disappearance was 11.3 (10.7-11.9) g/person/day. {U}sual (adjusted) salt intake from all sources was 7.7 (7.4-8.0) g/day. {A}ssuming no stability losses, a modeled fortification dose of 275 mg thiamine/kg salt could increase thiamine intakes from fortified salt to 2.1 (2.0-2.2) mg/day, with even low salt consumers reaching the {EAR} of 1.2 mg/day from fortified salt alone. {T}hese findings, in conjunction with future sensory and stability research, can inform a potential salt fortification program in {C}ambodia.},
