Hi, It is not useful for you, 3350mg of Sodium in 100 gm is too much. Even it is exceeding Indian RDA given by ICMR also. As per ICMR, RDA of Indian male is 2100mg/day, RDA of Indian female is 1900mg/day. Strictly it should be avoided as per information given by you.
Next Steps
Due to excess amount of Sodium, it should be avoided.
Health Tips
Excess amount of Sodium may lead to high blood pressure and obesity.

Hi.
It’s not healthy , so avoid it. If you’re vegan by choice - then stick to natural foods and whole proteins.
Most processed foods are high in sodium , artificial colours and preservatives - so don’t include such food in your daily diet.
Next Steps
Include vegetarian proteins like tofu, soya, nuts, pulses & legumes.
Health Tips
Avoid taking any medication or supplement without expert advice or prescription.
