One can calculate it easily. One teaspoon is approx. 5 GRAMS. Each Gram contains 1000 milligrams. Therefore one teaspoon is equivalent to approx. 5000 milligrams. 100 mg is approx 1/50 of a teaspoon.
If in milliliters:
One teaspoon is equal to 5 mg/5 ml therefore 100 mg or 100 ml is equal to 20 teaspoons. Let me further say you that mg means milligrams and ml means milliliters.

A teaspoon is a unit of volume and a milligram is a unit of mass. The two units have nothing to do with eachother. Therefore the question has no answer without knowing what substance is in question.
I am limited to 2000 milligrams of sodium a day, what does that equate to in teaspoons
Depends on the concentration of the liquid. For example 160mg/ 5 ml means 160mg per teaspoon but 0.5mg/5ml means 0.5 mg per teaspoon.
