I think that salt is good but since I ahve high blood pressue it is something I dont indulge in it that often. Alot of processed foods we eat are high in salt naturally they dont need to add additional sal to the mix. I think alot of the salt substitutes
are not that great anyway. I like to use sea salt as a replacement.

I try not to use a lot of salt but I still do. Sometimes the food just needs it. Food we eat already has a lot of salt in it before it hits our tables, but I still sprinkle more on. I should get better about it. Most of the time I try to use garlic, basil, or other spices to season the food, but a little salt brings out the flavors.

i love salt. thats why i also love junk foods because of its salty taste. right now, i am trying my best to avoid them coz its really bad for our health. we might get kidney stones from them. right?
just a piece of advice, try not to eat too much. or even if you do drink lots and lots of water to balance the water-salt balance in our body. *wink*
