Salt Control
Salt-good or bad for your health?
Here we go again about listening to health reports that are advocating “reduce your salt intake”.
Well, I agree with that because daily intake of products laden with salt will cause problems, for example, you will see swelling in your legs and retention of water. Not to mention the effect on stress and blood pressure, it’s a good idea to consider in an integrated wellness program.
Unfortunately, when salt is consumed, sometimes women take medication of water pills
which play havoc with your system and sometimes cause you to feel dizzy and unbalanced. The flip side is that you then have some weight loss because of the water pounds.
But let’s make a change. Buy “lite salt”. A big improvement and it still contains important iodine for your body. I’ve been using it for years. It’s part of my healthy aging strategy.
Once again, if we only use salt in moderation we are fine. And getting used to less salt truly makes no difference in taste after a week of doing it. You will actually prefer the difference.
But again, this is a new habit, and it is one step at a time. Bottom line, be mindful. Pay attention. Think about what you are eating throughout the day.
