By law all packaged food in Australia must have a nutrition label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>Base your diet on fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Common sources of salt in our diet<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>High salt foods include: deli meats, seafood without bones (ie prawns, mussels), bread and other baked foods, salted butter, margarine, yellow cheeses, almost all sauces and condiments and most canned and packaged foods unless specifically labelled as being low in salt. Some drinks, such as energy drinks, are also high in salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This can certainly make eating and meal planning very challenging and almost everyone is going to lose a number of their favourite foods when directed to reduce their salt intake.&nbsp;There are also few good options when it comes to takeaway. Often people assume that it will be easier for people with a sweet tooth but biscuits, cakes, chocolate and other sweet foods usually have high levels of salt too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What should I eat?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Base your diet on a good foundation of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and dried legumes (peas and beans). Protein sources will depend on whether or not you eat animal products but could include lean meat, poultry and fish, unseasoned tofu, some white cheeses and eggs as well as the protein you\u2019ll get from legumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frozen fruits and vegetables can be very handy substitutes, are usually low in salt and retain their nutrients well. They can be great to have on hand especially since very few canned products are low in salt and you may struggle to find other convenience foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;69e77f7f157a2&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69e77f7f157a2\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"637\" height=\"480\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/hepatitissa.asn.au\/communitynews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/oniongarlicspices-med.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-174\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hepatitissa.asn.au\/communitynews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/oniongarlicspices-med.jpg 637w, https:\/\/hepatitissa.asn.au\/communitynews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/oniongarlicspices-med-600x452.jpg 600w, https:\/\/hepatitissa.asn.au\/communitynews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/oniongarlicspices-med-300x226.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 637px) 100vw, 637px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Fresh herbs, spices and aromatics such as chilli and garlic can add lots of flavour without salt.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Add flavour with fresh or dried spices (not spice mixes as these are usually high in salt), fresh herbs, lemon or lime juice, vinegar, ginger, chilli and garlic.
