Guest guest Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 ___________________ Dear Victoria, here are some additional choices for organic sodium... *Salt- salt does not contain any organic mineral, vitamin, enzyme or nutrient. It dries the body out up to the hair and scalp. It induces water retention in the lower limbs. It displaces calcium and induces calcification, hardens the walls of veins, arteries and nerves and irritates the nervous system. It develops high blood pressure and is a leading cause of heart and kidney disease. Sodium Chloride paralyzes the 260 taste buds in the mouth. What to do about it:We know that we need salt to live but we need to remember that salt and sodium are not the same thing for our health. Organic sodium is essential and if we look at nature and what is offered naturally to us as food, we see that the proportion of sodium to potassium is almost very little sodium for large amounts of potassium.One of the vegetables the highest in sodium is celery. For 100 gr. of celery, we have 126 mg. of sodium and 341 mg. of potassium.100 gr. of boiled green beans will give us 4 mg. of sodium for 151 mg of potassium. But the same vegetable in a baby food jar will contain 213 mg. of sodium for 93 mg. of potassium. As seasoning, we can use herbs high in organic sodium: dill, celery seeds, fennel seeds, parsley, dulse, kelp, cilantro, ginger etc… Bilberry is high in sodium.Eating plenty of vegetables and fruit, drinking mountain water will provide us with the organic sodium we need as well as other buffering minerals.

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Hi! Joy That's for the reply, this was ver informative. Over the last few days I have omitted salt from my diet, and found that it was not necessary. I will try the herbs which you recommend, and see how they taste. I used cheese in one of my pasta dishes over the weekend, cheese has a lot of salt. Thanks again, ver informative reply.
