Farr Better No-Salt Options

Use these ideas instead of salt

We need to cut back on our daily sodium intake to keep our vital organs healthy. I have been experimenting with no-salt options to fulfill the salty taste we are accustomed too. Mix and match my no-salt seasoning ideas into the Farr Better Recipes_®. Some of these taste better with certain ingredients than others.

Have fun with this. Because so many people are allergic to spices, I wanted to keep this option open so you can choose what’s best to accommodate your dietary restrictions. Let me know what you think.

Detailed information from The Healthy.

The USDA’s Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that people aged 14 and up have no more than 2,300 mg per day of sodium, which is similar to the American Heart Association (AHA) recommendation. That might sound doable at first, but do you have any idea what 2,300 mg of sodium looks like? Are you sitting down? That’s actually just a teaspoon of salt. Unfortunately, most Americans are eating more than 3,400 mg sodium per day. 75% of our sodium intake comes from processed and prepared foods that are already made. Quote From Self

National Kidney Foundation. Diets high in sodium increase blood pressure levels. High blood pressure damages the kidneys over time and is a leading cause of kidney failure.
