    You also notice that a lot of food is over-salted.

    Junk food is still amazing, but I appreciate “good” junk food a lot more now. Like pastries from a good bakery instead of packaged stuff from the convenience store.

      I often crave salt after cutting it out of my cooking. Figured I’d get plenty on lapses. Found out recently that drinking a broth was a nice treat. Not the healthiest solution, but one that works when eating too little salt.

        If you’re cooking/making your own food the majority of the time, you’ll have a hard time adding too much salt. Unless you’ve got hypertension or some other contraindication, the risk of hypernatremia is negligible and bloating/fluid retention shouldn’t be much of an issue either

        Do you salt your broth?

        Anyway, you need to add salt if you’re not eating processed food
