Great pasta sauce, pickles, etc. RE: Salt Free and Low Sodum Foods Post by camo_angels (690) | (03/09/2006) Profile | Contact For tortilla chips, my husband bought some corn flour tortillas with low sodium, and I cut them up and dried them in the oven at 250 for an hour. Not as salty, but works great with salsa or cheese, and my little boy liked them too. About 12 8" tortillas made a gallon storage bag; just look for the least expensive, because bagged chips are ALWAYS too expensive! Watch what kind of cheese you buy too, american is one of the worst for sodium, but most have the labels for you to compare. Be sure to stay away from caffiene if possible, because that will make you retain and sodas can have a lot of sodium.

Our store has been open for a few months now and just about everyday new customers come in and express how relieved they are to have a store like this. I and the owner spend vast amounts of time researching for new products and locating companies and so on. We're here to help so if you know of anyone living in or around our area,tell them to give us a shout! Thanks!

To use canned tuna or chicken, rinse the liquid off under the faucet in a large strainer or collander. Frozen or fresh vegetables are salt-free. Avoid all deli-type meats, cured meats like bacon, ham, corned beef, etc. Instead, use fresh, lean meats like beef, pork, chicken, fish, turkey. Avoid prepared baked goods. Learn to read nutrition labels for sodium content and compare brands, types, and possible substitutions. Ask your medical professional for a number of grams of sodium you are allowed and remember there are 1000 miligrams in each gram. You may be able to have more than you think. Mrs. Dash makes some really good salt-free seasonings. My favorites are the extra spicy and the table blend. It takes some real concentration at first, but it soon becomes second nature. Good luck! QMJ RE: Salt Free and Low Sodum Foods Post By Rana (Guest Post) (12/23/2004) Do you have a Sav-A-Lot grocery store? The one we have here has canned vegetables and beans for the same price as Aldi, but they offer no-salt-added varieties, too.
