Mainly find too much sodium in processed foods, as in preparing perishable foods salt is used for two reasons, one is to enhance flavor and preserve food. But the food industry also adds other substances to their products that contain sodium, such as additives, either for conservatives, stabilizers, emulsifiers, thickeners and gelling agents, or as flavor enhancers or sweeteners.
Foods high in sodium:
◦ salt
◦ preserves and canned food
◦ processed foods in general
◦ processed meat
◦ sausage
◦ pates
◦ smoked
◦ junk food
◦ dried pasta and rice mixes
◦ processed and precooked soups
◦ sauces and salad dressings
◦ sports or energy drinks
◦ bread
savory snacks
◦ mature cheese
◦ seasonings
◦ refreshments
◦ margarine and butter
Are you surprised? In many of these foods do not feel the salty taste. However, the salt is hidden there. That is why we must achieve a balance in these foods or, preferably, avoid to avoid an overdose of salt.
