You could switch to "Mortons Lite" salt. It has only 50% of the sodium of pure salt. It seems that we need very little sodium. I've made an effort to diminish my salt intake and it does help in sustaining consistent weight loss. You automatically cut your salt in half by using the "Morton's Lite".

1busymomma's technique of cooking eggs in the bacon grease is right on. I do that too and then do not salt the eggs. Use a lot of fresh ground pepper instead. It is most satisfying. You can buy excellent fresh whole peppercorns as an excellent price at www.penzeys.com. I'm not affiliated with them; I just love their products. Excellent spices.

Try using more herbs. They are somewhat salty and can replace a great deal of added salt in dishes.

And focus on using fewer shakes of salt, even "Mortons Lite" salt. If you do, you can cut your salt intake considerably.

Good Luck!
