Her concern was the potassium/sodium deficiencies it can cause. Changing the formula of the salt substitutes may help that.
I take a mild diuretic and I try to stay low-carb, so I don’t eat bananas and other fruits high in potassium as they carry a lot of carbs as well. When I saw her last month, my potassium level was ONE ‘tick’ below normal, so she suggested the supplement.
Thank you.
Someone mentioned Morton Salt Lite...I may look into that, but I really like Lawry’s season salt with eggs.
I don’t use a lot of table salt.
Big issue for me is that it is in various recipes, and I don’t think the salt substitutes work well in cooking...
No offense but you’re doctor is crazy imo. Potassium is easily depleted and has so many benefits you don’t want it to be low as most are.
