Strategies, Tips, and Tricks for a Low-Sodium Lifestyle
Most of you know that sodium is a big trigger for a lot of people with Meniere’s disease, and for those people, eating a low-sodium diet can really help to improve your symptoms. It certainly did for me.
The only problem is that switching to a low-sodium diet can be really difficult because there’s so much sodium in everything these days.
This video covers the strategies, tips, and tricks that I use regularly to happily maintain my low-sodium diet.
With a little bit of planning you will be able to make the change smoothly and without sacrificing on flavor.

Also balsamic vinegar can be very helpful in sticking to a low sodium diet.. Can be used on hundreds of foods & snacks and in recipes as well…
Glenn
Great point Charles. I use balsamic vinegar all the time!

I find that eating high potassium foods seem to help, banana, avocado, oranges, etc.

I think the videos would be more helpful to some of us who struggle with hearing difficulties if they were CAPTIONED.

Heywayne, I’m sorry you didn’t see the closed caption button, but all of my videos are captioned. You just have to press the CC button. You can actually do it on any youtube video and it will automatically generate captions based on the speech to text conversion. But I go in and manually enter all of my captions so they’re correct.
