If you suffer from high blood pressure, or are just trying to get healthier by cutting back on your salt intake, check out these 4 great tips for low sodium cooking. Try incorporating them into your diet, and you'll feel better in no time!

Use lots of spices
Instead of thinking of a low-sodium diet as a set-back, think about it as a chance to try all the amazing spices you've been longing to try. Salt is a flavor enhancer, so if you bring more flavor and spice to your meal, you won't miss it!

Have fun with vinegars, oils, molasses, jams, and marmalades
Store-bought condiments often contain a lot salt. Instead of reaching for the BBQ or Ketchup, add a dash of a flavored vinegar or oil, molasses, and even a homemade fruity jam or marmalade.

Add extra citrus!
Instead of relying on salt, add fresh lemon or lime juice to your meal brighten up the flavors. This trick works great for steamed vegetables, grilled chicken, hearty pastas, and more.

Make it appealing to the eye
Always remember, we eat with our eyes first. So, be sure to present your low-sodium meal in an attractive way. Use your favorite plates, nice glassware, and add a few garnishes to the final preparation.
