Spare Us the Salt! Oregonians Paying a Hefty Price for Hidden Salt
Date:11/6/2008

hat fresh proteins have not been 'enhanced' with unnecessary, salt-containing water or seaweed extracts, look for a sodium content of 70 mg or less per serving.

-- Know your numbers -- Aim for a general guideline of 500 mg of total sodium per meal and 200 mg per snack. Foods with 140 mg or less per serving are considered low sodium.

-- Don't supersize -- Beware of misleading portion sizes that may hurt efforts to count for calories, fat and sodium; be realistic about what you or your family members will consider a "serving" and calculate accordingly. When shopping, bring a calculator if need be.

-- Watch your sweet tooth -- Sweets such as puddings, candy bars, soda, graham crackers and even ice cream can pack a major sodium punch!

-- Skip fast food -- Just one fast food meal could have an entire day's worth of sodium.

-- Toss the shaker -- Use salt alternatives like herbs when seasoning foods. Forgo adding salt to water when cooking pasta.

-- Re-train your palate - The more salt you eat, the more you crave. Try cutting down on sodium intake for a 2 - 4 week period and you'll teach your palate to enjoy less salt while reaping the health benefits.
