Tips To Reduce Sodium
February 17th, 2009 | 
Author: Here some tips what you should do if you want to reduce Sodium from your daily living :
| Salt | Omit salt or reduce salt by ½ in most recipes (except in products with yeast). Cook foods without adding salt. Don’t put the salt shaker on the table. |
| Frozen or canned vegetables | Choose frozen vegetables without sauces or use no-salt-added canned goods. Rinsing canned vegetables will help reduce sodium. |
| Seasoning Salt or spice mixes with salt | Use salt-free seasonings and spice mixes. Use herbs, spices, lemon juice, or vinegar to flavor food instead of salt. Seasonings high in sodium include catsup, chili sauce, chili powder, bouillon cubes, barbecue sauce, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and meat tenderizers. |
