I don't proselytize to others to not use salt, its just like being a vegetarian for me, I need to do this for my health, so its what I am doing.

Good homemade food is fresher & better-tasting than store-bought or restaurant where they have to load on the salt to try to get some flavor. I used to cook w/no salt, now just a modest amount; after reading about this new research I'm thinking about going back to no-salt food prep. One gets used to it pretty quickly. I remember when many folks would sprinkle on
extra salt onto their fries, eggs etc--I guess it's a positive sign that I don't seem to see that much anymore.
