Since using the nutrition tracker, I've been learning alot about the salt in foods. I've also noticed that when I use someone else's recipe, I still need to do the nutrition counts, because the particular brand of food item may be way higher in salt than they used. I made a great shrimp recipe from the database, but the salt counts were way lower than when I made it because the shrimp brand I used was different. Just something to think about.

I have to watch my intake of sodium due to inherited hypertention. It is a challenge for me due to all of the process foods we consume. The best way I battle this issue is to prepare my meals myself and buy fresh fruits and vegetables.

Sodium is a concern for us also. We've started using the salt substitute called "NuSalt". We use it in cooking, baking, etc. So far, so good.

Trust the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.

I was about to add a recipe to my new recipe collection and noticed that there's no "low sodium" health concern listed. It seems to me that this is a MAJOR health issue and should be a category that people can reference looking for recipes like this. Does anyone know how can I contact someone who administers the recipe database?
