Leave us alone , government.
Abolish the EPA, FCC,FDA for starters.
Freedom = capitalism = prosperity.
Socialism = government control = starvation = oppression = slavery.
Running our lives. Its not like government bureaucrats don’t have anything better to do with their time!
Nanny State ping!
My vet recommended more after they did blood tests in the hospital after my accident. She wasn't too worried about if my remaining kidney could handle it. She was worried that my sodium level was so low.

Please, LORD - get the government out of:
My shower
My toilet
My health care
My Salt Shaker
My fast-foot restaurants
My grocery basket
My retirement funds
My children’s education
My gas tank
My lawnmower
My ATV
and my WALLET!!!!
Well, Now that health care is provided for “free”, courtesy of Uncle Sam, you better DO what he TELLS you to do, or ELSE.
Don’t agree with that? Then ABOLISH, REPEAL, DEFUND, and STOP the MONSTROSITY of OBAMACARE!!!!
Americans advising Govt to stick their heads up their a**es.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Time to go buy more salt.
Hmmmm! What are they telling the other half...........
Isn’t that the job of the medical profession instead of government. Will salt now become available only by prescription?
salt = flavor. At 1/2 teaspoon a day you might as well chew on solyent green.
Dear Govt.,
Piss Off!
Sincerely,
Gigster
I don’t do well without salt, but I take Potassium to balance things. I’m 56, and my doctor told me to keep doing what I’m doing after looking at my last blood test. That means staying on my meat and eggs diet with lots of salt, no fruits, no sweets, no snacks and only low glycemic veggies. No food pyramid for me.
Healthy Choices: Less government + more freedom
Allegra advising goverment to mind their own damn business.
"Sir, it says here in 2012 your Cholesterol was 200.1 and you were 5 lbs over the national recommended weight for your height. Service denied..."
If you stay away from processed food, I think the vast majority of people would be fine with the amount of salt they cook with.
It’s things like canned soup, frozen meals, Hamburger Helper, canned broth and the like that have ridiculously high sodium.
Simple guideline to healthy eating - ingredients shouldn’t have ingredients.
Why would they suggest such a tiny maximum amount for the entire population of senior citizens??? It is so small, most people will utterly ignore these warnings.... and what about that percentage of the population which gets severely LOW blood pressure if they restrict sodium from thier diet?
The U.S. population is telling the U.S. government to drastically cut their spending of taxpayer funds.
I’ll take a contrarian position here - I think we do eat too much salt and this here is only a recommendation - not a tax or a regulation. And I agree that the big culprits are processed foods as well as restaurant foods. You’re much better off with foods you make yourself with fresh (or frozen) ingredients.
