a little explanation of Low Sodium Diet :
A low-sodium diet is normally recommended for people with high blood pressure and heart failure. A low-sodium diet essentially means a drastic reduction in a person's salt intake from the daily diet, as salt is mainly composed of sodium. Sodium is an essential mineral that keeps the body fluids balanced in the human body. The normal accepted level of sodium for an individual is 1,500 to 2000 mg per day, and anything in excess of these values could be dangerous and lead to complications of the heart and kidneys.
Fast foods like hamburgers, French fries and processed foods (potato chips and frozen food) are high in sodium. A person adhering to a low sodium diet must avoid these foods. Dietitians also warn against the consumption of cured meats like sausage, ham, and bacon, as high quantities of salt are used for their preservation. One of the unhealthiest medium of high sodium for both children and adults is soft drinks. Soft drinks are not only high in sodium, but have absolutely no nutritional value and cause more damage than any good.
Foods low in Sodium
Unprocessed food like fish, vegetables, lean meats, and grains are low in sodium. There are a lot of soup-based foods that are low in sodium content which are available both in stores and online. Some of the other food products that are low in sodium are unsalted butter; herbs like cinnamon, cloves, and oregano; skimmed milk, sugar, honey, and barley prepared in unsalted water. Tea, coffee and club soda also contain low levels of sodium.
It is important to note that it is not just salt in the natural form that is high in sodium. For example, sodium benzoate is a variety of salt that is produced artificially and used as a preservative to kill fungi, bacteria, and yeast. Sodium benzoate too should be avoided as it contains high levels of sodium. It is very important for people to develop the habit of reading food labels in stores to make the best choices for a balanced diet.
For people with high blood pressure, it would be wise to consult a dietitian for a sample low-sodium menu on a daily basis. This can help a great deal because a dietitian can create an effective personalized low-sodium meal plan based on the person's requirements. In most cases, people adhering to a reduced sodium diet are able to effectively lower their sodium levels, and maintain healthy blood pressure levels. Let us now get an idea of what constitutes a low sodium meal. A typical breakfast would include fresh fruit, a cup of skimmed milk or coffee, and low-sodium cereals or wheat bread. Lunch could include low-sodium wheat crackers, skimmed milk, a small cup of unsalted peanuts, and spinach salad. Dinner consisting of boiled potatoes, fresh steamed vegetables, fresh melon or fresh melon juice, and grilled chicken could make an ideal low sodium meal.
