It’s been a while since my last post. Quite frankly, I’ve been extremely frustrated and haven’t wanted to admit that it’s not all about the Low Sodium Diet that I did so well earlier in the year losing the fluid that had accumulated. During the Spring I noticed I was gaining fluid weight again. I was […]
Sodium/Salt Awareness activists, and I, believe everything we eat and do assists us in changing a person’s behavior and think differently. The way we challenge people is by enabling people to interact with others who are in the same situation, assist in developing skills such as sodium tracking, charts, reasons why sodium should be watched, and providing […]

I have found numerous websites that relate to nutrition, foods, and health in general, but the one site that I kept coming back to was http://www.nutrition-and-you.com. It seemed to be the simplest to understand and it kept repeating some the same definitions of words that I’ve heard, but never quite really understood. So, most of […]
I believe it’s common knowledge to everyone of you “My Facebook Friends” and friends in general that we connect “Face to Face” or “Phone to Phone” that I was born with Congenital Heart Problems, as well as a wide range of other medical issues. For the most part of my younger life I spent a […]
