Bevrs....what kind of salt do you use? I use only sea salt and it has decreased my water retention significantly. There is only one kind that I find that tastes good and also works well. I get it in my grocery store but health food stores have it as well. It comes in a 26oz blue container and it's called, "Sel De Mer Fin" by La Baleine. I use the fine crystals (it's just like salt). I've reccomended this to other people who were having water retention and they have all stopped using the regular table salt and love this salt. It really works good for water retention. I haven't used anything else for years. When I eat something someone else has cooked I usually blow up like a baloon from the salt. Hope this info is helpful to someone!

Hi Val,
I don't use salt. Bad for the blood pressure! In recipes, I always cut it down to a quarter of what the recipe calls for -- or leave it out altogether if I can.
I seldom eat any prepared foods, canned foods, etc., because the salt content is incredible. Not good, not good. Hubby too is real concerned about salt; he's almost 70, and it's imperative that we both keep our blood pressure down.
Thanks for your post.
Bev

You can check it out with your doctor but I'm pretty sure you can use this salt even with your problems. I know Sam (my guy) has started using it because of his blood pressure. Ask your doctor about it. I agree with prepared foods they are loaded with bad salt.
