Cut sodium in the kitchen—without cutting flavor. We show you how.

By Marsha McCulloch, M.S., R.D.

We’ve gathered low-sodium seasonings and cooking tips from nutrition experts and people following low-sodium diets.

We’ll show you how to:

  • Pick spice blends and salt substitutes
  • Add flavor without salt
  • Add tasty, low-sodium ingredients to recipes to keep your sodium intake in check

Buy Salt-Free Blends
Salt-free herb and spice blends add flavor without added sodium, but check the ingredient lists of store-bought blends for the sodium amounts. If you’re still unsure what’s in a seasoning, call the company’s toll-free number or visit the company’s Web site for more information.

  • Mrs. Dash Seasoning Table Blend
  • Lawry’s Salt-Free 17 Seasoning
