研究设计2017年对马来西亚6家大型超市和零售连锁店以及相应品牌的官方网站销售的707种不同口味和包装的方便面进行横断面调查。结果在707种不同包装和口味的方便面中，只有62.1%（n=439）在食物标签上提供含盐量。每100克方便面的平均（+/- SD）盐含量为4.3 +/- 1.5克，比马来西亚归类为高盐含量（每100克>1.2克盐）的食物的盐含量高出近四倍。每包方便面的含盐量介乎0.7至8.5克。61.7%的方便面超过了太平洋减盐目标，11.8%超过了世卫组织建议的每日盐摄入量。
Objective To determine the salt content in instant noodles sold in Malaysia.Study design A cross-sectional survey was done involving 707 different flavours and packaging of instant noodles sold in six hypermarkets and retailer chains in Malaysia and the corresponding brand's official websites in 2017.Methods The salt content (gram per serving and per 100 g) was collected from the product packaging and corresponding brand's official website.Results Of the 707 different packaging and flavours of instant noodles, only 62.1% (n=439) provided the salt content in their food label. The mean (+/- SD) salt per 100 g of instant noodles was 4.3 +/- 1.5 g and is nearly four times higher than the salt content of food classified in Malaysia as a high salt content (>1.2 g salt per 100 g). The salt content for instant noodle per packaging ranged from 0.7 to 8.5 g. 61.7% of the instant noodles exceeded the Pacific Salt Reduction Target, 11.8% exceeded the WHO recommended daily salt intake of
