How much salt should I intake?

So there I am, trying to surf the internet for an amazing recipe to try for the blog and I came across this cranberry orange muffin recipe that I absolutely love to make. Well, the website provides nutritional information per serving, which is really nice, and I was enlightened to the fact each serving contained 229 mg of salt. It made me realize, wow, I don't know how much salt intake I actually need each day. So, I thought maybe you all were wondering as well if you didn't know. While we all  know the government has been warning us about it's dangers of causing high blood pressure, I never really have conversations about it with anyone. It's always just someone saying, "Well I like it. I don't care. I'mma keep usin' it. No regrets, yo." 
I needed to know so here is some current information for your enlightenment as well. 

Oh, and definitely look forward to cranberry orange muffins soon on the blog!
