This toolkit, sodium tracker, and cookbook in one gives you solid health information and 60 low-sodium recipes for favorite comfort foods. With the book's step-by-step approach, eating less salt has never been more achievable.

With this book, you'll learn how to:-Monitor your current sodium intake -Reduce the high-sodium products in your pantry, refrigerator, and freezer -Read and understand food labels -Know which popular foods are "salt traps" -Keep sodium in check while eating out -Plan healthy, lower-sodium weekly menus without sacrificing flavor |
