Re: Salt intake

[Guest guest]

I was thinking about you last night while I was eating my dinner Caroline.

Korean's have a dish they call " samgyopsul " . It is simply sliced pork with lots

of fat on it, cut up and fried. They wrap it in lettuce and eat it. They often

dip the cooked pork in things like sea salt or sea salt and sesame oil to

enhance the taste. It is good and healthy and another way to get in some sea

salt. I did mine in just the sea salt and then wrap in the lettuce (leaf lettuce

not head lettuce).

Tomatoe juice sounds like a good one to put extra salt in. I just bought

some in fact but I think it's pasteurized. Doubt I could find any around

here that isn't. I am already adding plenty of sea salt to foods plus

dipping my wet fingertip in it while drinking lemon juice. Hope I'm getting

enuf.

That sounds delicious! I'll try it with well-cooked soft pork or puree it

since I'm having chewing problems currently. I used to dip raw veggies in

saltimbaco, an Italian dip made of olive oil, salt & pepper. So that would

work too but I can't eat the raw veggies on the diet & can't chew them

anyway now. A person could ingest a lot of sea salt that way tho. I'll try

the pork idea, but won't be eating it everyday is the problem. Putting the

salt into garlic/lemon drink will help I'm sure.

Thx

Sodium is an essential mineral for balancing water levels in our bodies and regulating nerve impulses and muscle contractions. Too much of it can promote high blood pressure. Used wisely, however, and salt actually provides health benefits. For example, it's used for iodine fortification in many developing countries where iodine deficiency is the main cause of potentially preventable mental retardation in childhood, as well as causing goitre and hypothyroidism in people of all ages.

Typical salt intakes in western countries are 9g a day – around double the ideal level recommended by the World Health Organization.

Up to 75% of our salt intake now comes from processed foods such as bread, ready-meals, soups, breakfast cereals and snacks.

A further 15% is added during cooking and at the table.

Just 10% is found naturally in foods.

One quarter of adults have high blood pressure and a third of those don't know it – high blood pressure sufferers often don't display any symptoms.

If you are eating organic or home grown raw or mostly raw... you will most likely not have to worry about your salt intake. The problem is that too many eat more salt then they realize. And then add more cause they think they aren't getting any or enough.
