Salt Alternatives

Reducing your salt intake requires a change in habits. The following information may be helpful in directing this change:

Read labels to determine the amount of salt or sodium in foods.
Avoid foods high in sodium such as canned soups (unless labeled low-sodium).
Consider using fresh or dried herbs rather than salt to enhance the flavor of foods.
Use a squeeze of lemon or lime to flavor salads or to marinate foods.

This is a sodium-substitute product that I really like:
If you want a fantastic way to add taste to your food or drinks, try
the new True Lemon and True Lime products (check out
www.truelemon.com) Just carry the little packet with you to sprinkle
on foods in place of salt. This versatile sodium substitute (sodium
free) also comes in a shaker and can be added to chicken, fish,
vegetables, salads, as well as to flavor drinks. I'm sure there are
many more uses - let me know at srpark@saltrax.com if you come up
with any more uses!

For more information about reducing your sodium intake please refer to the book,
How to Keep Track of Your SALT Intake, which is available for purchase through this web site.
