Reply to "Salt"

Depends...

I was anti-salt because I had a family history of edema (and my mother confused swelling and weight gain)...so, I usually ate very little salt, suffered from light headedness, dizziness, very low BP, some joint pain, and weakness.

Then I read some posts here and upped my sodium intake...it helped...I eat salty nuts, soups, some canned soups, powdered soups in other foods like rice, pasta etc...all of that helps a lot.

I also drink a lot of fluids including homemade lemonade...

It is a balancing act...

I void chips, fried and fatty foods when and if I can (except for veggie chips...love those)...

Thus I don't suffer from too much swelling or other problems but I do get my salt.

You will find you balance...take practice
