  • Today we're going to talk about controlling high blood pressure, 10 high sodium foods to avoid. Now, when I ask most of my patients if they have a high salt diet, they usually say, "No, I hardly even add salt to my food." But what most people don't know is that most of the salt that we eat comes from pre-packaged foods and from restaurants.

My blood pressure is coming down from 220/100 to 150/ 87, body weight dropped from 98 kilograms to 76, cases to bathroom at night dropped from 8 to 2 trips.

    I've noticed over time that alot of vegetarian food options whether it was at a vegetarian restaurant or vegetarian grocery foods were either extremely high or somewhat higher in sodium. So although it might be meatless the sodium content makes it off limits for those with hbp. Keep that in mind.

I use to just eat ketchup straight from the package because I like the taste!! Thank you so much for the informational video!! You are very thorough and explain well. My diet will get better in regards to limiting my salt intake and watching product labels. Thank you, ma'am!!

I eat at 12p.m. (snack on fruit, peanuts, raisins, salad etc.) in between and dinner at 6 p.m. I may eat another healthy snack no later than 8pm so, I am mixing my meals with intermittent fasting. Just google "500 calorie meals" and go for it. I feel great and EVERYONE has been asking me; "What are you doing?" I use to weigh 300lbs now I am down to 243lbs, and down from a size 3xl-4xl in shirts to 1xl and from a 50-52 inch waist in pants to 42 inches.

    Excellent and informative video. Now, please upload a video on how to eat the lowest amount of salt eating similar foods. I need to put into practice (for single people) on the go who need to avoid unwanted salt in our diets. How can I do that? Our food industry is based on giving us what we want, but they know darn well they're killing us. I need to escape this narrative to live a healthy long life through smarter eating choices. Men don't know how to properly create "meal plans" that will save our lives that will keep us alive and well for our families. Please show me HOW to do this! Saying no is one thing, but YES to what..... Thank you.

That's why macaroni and cheese is not a wise food choice, or at least eat on small portion.very rarely.

    From my experience dealing with food I used to have a lot of trouble dealing with the salt intake i was a complete Savage when i was younger and ate way too much sodium like Chilli Dogs with Dorito Chips,Corn Dogs with Fries,Pizza with Onion Rings,fried chicken with spaghetti and roman noodles all the time. But then as i got older my late grandma lecturing me about eating healthy and start getting your life together and made me understand that yes you lost your mom i get it you are sad and grieving over her lost but you are not alone in this because you still got your family and people who really love you. So she put me on a diet and also my late aunt started cooking healthier foods and because of their motivation to get myself right i Begin to exercise at the park while i was meeting new people. And thats when i found my church family and they helped strengthening my faith in God and i kept my heart,mind,body and soul on the positives and it made me realize is that yes life can be hard but you gotta do whatever it takes to move on just to have peace and have the will power to stay happy,alive and witnessed another day to give the Lord the Praise.
