Agree with all of the above, just wanted to mention unsalted butter. We used it a lot for my grandma.
Also Accent(msg) has less sodium that table salt. There are also low sodium sea salts. We used both of these during the transition phase especially.

I noticed my BP rising, and have seriously cut my salt intake.
I picked up The No-Salt Cookbook, and have found some useful recipes where they use other things to add flavor.
I am going to cook more myself but it the eating out that is a killer. We ask the waiters to ask the cooks not add salt but there seems to be plenty in the dishes brought out. BTW, the lack of salt I can get over as just watching what I eat has made me able to taste anything more than a smidgen.
It is a new life for me, figuratively and literally and I’d like to extend the time with my new wife. ![[flirtysmile.gif] flirtysmile](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/c/ce2642e7caade9035e3a3b13c8b8d2b3ddb2b4c9.gif)
Mexico, the next two weeks, but that is mostly fish for us.
Thanks all, every suggestion is appreciated.,
When dining out now, I always request that the kitchens avoid salt and vermin (my version of vegan).
That tends to be very effective, as such requests become increasingly common.
Of course, the no-gluten and vegan requests tend to get honored much more strictly.
