Or do you automatically sprinkle salt on your food? If you do, you should try shaking the salt habit and get to know the real taste of food. Sodium is very important in the normal functioning of our bodies. It is required for maintaining blood pressure, controlling fluid levels in the body and transmitting nerve im- pulses.

Why should this excessive intake be of concern? Because of the link between sodium consumption and high blood pressure. Sodium is one of the factors known to affect high blood pressure. Some people can consume high levels of sodium without apparent effect on blood pressure, while lower levels of con- sumption can affect blood pressure in others. Those whose blood pres- sure is affected by sodium consump- tion are called "sodium sensitive". At present there is no good way to predict who will develop high blood pressure. Therefore moderation of in- take is a good preventative measure for everyone to take. For those who already have high blood pressure, see your doctor for a referral to a dietitian for individual counselling. Here are some tips for cutting back. 1. When you shop - Beware that as the level of pro- cessing of food increases, the amount of calories) fat, sugar and sodium usually increases as well. Try to choose the less processed form of a food. Even try buying in- gredients to make your own soups, casseroles, sauces and baked goods. Also, curtail your purchase of high- ly salted snack foods eg. potato chips and pretzels. 2. In the kitchen - Reduce the amount of table salt, onion salt, garlic salt, and boullion cubes you add to foods during cook- ing. Use less salt in your recipes or use herbs and spices instead. In other words re-educate your taste buds. 3. At the table - Taste food before you salt it. if you still need salt, try just one shake instead of two. Or better yet, season with lemon juice, vinegar or seasonings. These small changes in your food choices, can add up to a big differ- ence in your salt intake, and help keep your family on' the path of sen- sible eating.
