Healthy salty snack recommendations?



Recommended Posts

I'm almost 4 months post op and have a condition that makes my blood pressure on the low side. My doctor told me to add salt to my diet. I do that but it's still not up enough. I added roasted, salted cashews as a snack. They're so delicious that I'm eating too many. Probably 1/2 cup at one sitting. So I'm trying to find a healthier/less fattening alternative. Any ideas?

What about just adding more salt to what you are already eating and not trying to find a snack to add?

Thanks for the replies. I do already add a lot of salt to what I'm eating. As I lose weight, I'm having to add more and more. I decided to add V8 juice because it's heavy on the sodium. If I want something to crunch on, I'm going to try edamame with added salt. I appreciate your thoughts.

Try getting the low salt V8 variety and add Mrs Dash or "Slap Yo Mama", That's a Cajun seasoning. Oh maybe Italian or Taco seasoning. No need to be boring. And if you're feeling really Froggy, Hot Sauce.🔥 LOL

Try pickles. Zero calories, tons of sodium. And crunchy.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
