How to reduce your sodium intake

Five simple actions for a healthier, lower sodium eating pattern:

Fill your plate (and stomach) with fresh fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are naturally low in sodium and contain potassium which may help reduce blood pressure and risk for other medical conditions.

Select herbs, spices and fresh lemon or lime juice to season your foods. Choosing sodium free seasonings provides plenty of flavor without the negative effects of salt. Give yourself time to adjust to the new tastes.

Enjoy more home cooked meals. Restaurant meals tend to be very high in sodium. By doing more home food preparation you can significantly decrease your overall salt consumption.

Stop eating when you are satisfied. In the Japanese city of Okinawa they refer to this as “Hara hachi bu.”  This translates to “eat until you are 80 percent full.” By decreasing your overall portion of food consumed, you will decrease your salt intake. The people of Okinawa have the lowest rates of heart disease, cancer and stroke. And they have one of the largest centenarian populations!

Stop being a bitch on the internet.

I’m sorry did I miss the headline where Mozambique’s previous generation came out on top after a globally devastating world war, and they had a bunch of fat happy peacetime babies, propelling their now-boomed population to an economic superpower status where there’s so many jobs and hard work is rewarded with fair pay for a balanced family life? Are they about to invent another Internet?

Are their families just trying out and starting up businesses? Can their kids save up for a brand new car by working at the local factory or restaurant?

Wowee it’s amazing the gems you can find on this planet if you look hard enough!

The only notable Mozambique that comes to mind is the one that would make sure these neo-gilded-age crapbags stay down after selling all of us out, generation after generation, including poor boomers who didn’t get so lucky.

Oh, Mozambique? The Mozambique that is “disappearing” journalists who try and investigate the dirty “counter-insurgency” operation happening in the north of the country because the Moz government is intent on allowing Total to loot it’s energy reserves at the expense of the local populace?

Yeah, Clyde… that sounds totally 1st world to me. Totally not a country still at the beck and call of the Global North’s exploitation at all.
