Hi, I also have a sodium issue, but my blood pressure has been very high, so with my doctor I have cut salt out of my diet as much as possible. I cook with Mrs Dash, i don't add any salt to my food, I do use sea salt if i have to, and i choose things that have a lower sodium, i know its hard but it is workable.
