Aye, once you have to give up salt (sodium) and really start reading labels, looking around and whatnot for that purpose (blood pressure, heart disease), you end up learning about “splitting the sugars” in labeling and keep going down the rabbit hole. Oh gosh now you’re reading about additives, and…

Cutting sodium out of my diet caused a removal of all those other preprocessed things which in turn has lead to more fresh vegetables, fruits and nuts every day and healthy weight loss. What started out as a necessity has become a “hey, this is actually nice” eating life without added salts and sugars, along with increased fibre and nutritional value.
