1) Read labels! Do not assume anything. It's surprising where high amounts of sodium can be found. I discovered that a hoagie roll I liked to use had 1000mg of sodium. Then I was adding high sodium deli meats and cheese. Check out the difference between a can of tomato sauce and a can of tomato puree. Then buy the puree. 2) Before eating out, visit their website and read the nutrition data. It's surprising how much salt is in the food. For example: Arby's has a new "Super Reuben" that has 2430mg of sodium. That's an entire days worth in 1 sandwich! The fries add plenty more. 3) Force yourself to consume less salt. In the beginning you won't like it because food tastes bland. Over time your taste buds will adjust. — Anonymous
