What is this thread all about?
Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
Earlier today, I remembered how much the Obamas railed against salt in food.
It made me wonder if I should be eating MORE salt.
After all, they want you sick and malnourished.
So please, tell me the truth about salt. Actual sodium chloride, not the meme kind.
I've cut down since 10 years ago. It did affect my blood pressure, I use sea salt or himalayan, and I will buy salted butter. If I eat anything processed now it tastes like it is just made of salt, I can't taste anything ing else. Like sugar or high fructose cornsyrup, it is in everything. I don't care what the O's said, or did not say. There is far too much salt in our diets, and no need for it. In the old days, salt was used to make sauerkraut, pickles, etc. And the natural fermentation provided probiotics. Mammals that eat meat don't need it, herbivores do need it,and we have salt blocks they can lick at. All the processed foods are jacked up with salt and sugar, and kids especially get used to that taste, and will complain if they are given whole foods and a salt shaker to use if they have to. I have a cellar full of prepper food, and I know that its processed, so, if I have to, we will live on that. The worst culprit is frozen food, more salt in that than anything, even canned.
Redmond Real Salt. It's natural sea salt from the salt flats in Utah. In fact someone here suggested it. I ordered mine from Swanson vitamins but you can find it other places. I think it's supposed to be better than ionized salt like Morton.
One kid has POTS and requires sodium chloride tablets daily.
I think processed salt is bad ... natural salt, like sea salt & the pink one have lots of minerals in them.
That's all I use now. If I use regular salt, just a tiny bit... my fingers swell and my joints ache.
If you are male salt is a death sentence I do best when hovering around 1000-1800mg a day. Plenty of armchair nutritionists love to say sodium is harmless but if you carry even 30lbs extra of weight (whether it be muscle or fat) you are setting yourself up for discomfort and unnecessary health issues
While the AHA did make the hypertension scales way more strict to put even more people on toxic drugs (hypertension stage 1 right now was normal in the 90s) the salt thing is real.
Eating incredibly processed foods, too much cured meat, etc is not a good choice. Look at the sodium counts on fast food, it is awful. The cabal definitely wants to poison us.
Remember there is a reason plenty of libtards say Obama was actually right leaning. The poison pill of socialized health care was not enough for them. I hate Barry too but had he and his husband not been morons, maybe the health initiatives would have worked? Instead they just starved school children and fat shamed adults
