Dietary Salt Substitutes.

Cardiologists regularly tell patients to replace salt with dietary salt substitutes to lower their blood pressure.
It doesn’t just lower blood pressure, it also lowers strokes, heart attacks, and death.
It's advisable to switch  to dietary salt substitutes is a doable behavior modification. They’re low cost and easy for people to use..You don’t have to make big changes to your lifestyle
Most salt substitutes are made of potassium chloride, which tastes much like sodium chloride. 
In fact, for many people they’re similar enough in flavor that they find it easy to switch.
But if the taste of the potassium chloride doesn’t work for you, there are so-called lite salt replacements. 
They’re often called low sodium, and contain a blend of sodium chloride and potassium chloride. 
These salt substitutes have a more salty taste, yet have less sodium chloride than traditional table salt. 
Bear in mind, however, that these lite salt replacements do contain a degree of sodium chloride and you need to exercise discretion.
Salt substitutes contain potassium, which, for most people will help further to lower blood pressure. 
However, some people need to avoid the extra potassium found in salt substitutes. 
Anyone who has kidney disease or is on certain hypertension medications should not increase their potassium intake unless it’s approved by their physicians.
If you can’t use salt substitutes, or don’t like them, you can create flavor-rich foods with herbs and spices.  
Try herbs like rosemary, thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, cilantro, sage, and celery seed.  
A squeeze of lemon juice on foods can provide that extra zip you need without the extra sodium.

"Never underestimate your substitute products"
