I apologize, Coryn. I had not seen this analysis. That could also depend on
what brand you use or if you made your own. Vegetable broth is something I’m
not too familiar with? Does anyone know a good low salt brand, for if you
have to buy it?

Snip,
I think you read the recipe too hastily. It is 1/4 tsp. sea salt to a final 8
cups of soup ( 6 servings @ 1 1/3 cup per serving). The recipe is low sodium.
The recipe sounds absolutely delicious Axel, I’m going to try it real soon.
Thanks!

Yes, I know. But that is a bunch of sodium for a little cup of soup! I will try
it with low sodium broth and no salt. It sounds delicious!!

2000 mg. of sodium a day is considered low sodium.
Just for your information.

Gee, I don’t mean to preach and I used to hate the pain-in-the-ass people who
preached to me but they were right. You sound a lot like the way I used to
be except I was in the Navy. I went for years like that. Nobody asked me but:
My pearl to you is that if you don’t take the time to take care of your body
now, time will be provided for you. How much hair can you cut if you’re
laying on your back with a rock on your chest or you can’t walk because one side
of
your body doesn’t work. I got the rock, my over-achiever neighbor got the
half dead body. Give yourself 5-10 minutes an hour for hydration and a bathroom
break. Lecture over, sorry.

Very minimal in fact.<<
I was referring to the 749 mgs of sodium for 1-1/4 cup serving size.
Wow, Belinda, you are grumpy today. Thanks a bunch.

enough water…that is true. Being a hairstylist (and one who is
booked solid for months in advance) sometimes I don’t get
luxuries like lunch or water breaks or sitting down…heck I go
potty first thing in the morning (6am) and don’t go again until I
get home at 4pm. NO time. I swear I have a bladder the size of
Lake Erie! My body is conditioned for that though because that
has been my life for the last 22 years. I do what I can…but
water gets put on the back burner sometimes (a lot). I end up
drinking most of my water at night and then do the “middle of the
night trip to the bathroom” thing. I will work on it though
because you are right…it is a big part of the swelling problem.
My feet only swell up at night after being on them for 12 hours
straight. Blah, blah, blah….man can I ramble…
And you need to learn to “snip” your replies.
Can you have a bottle of water at your station that you can at

least sip on inbetween customers? It takes two seconds to grab a
drink.

1/4 teaspoon for an entire pot of stew is NOT a lot of salt.
Very minimal in fact.

If you’re not swelling from illness, Drink more water. Our bodies hold water
because we don’t drink enough, at least, that’s the case with me. I used to
cut way back on salt but once I read about drinking more water and shifted to
sea salt, I can eat all of the salt I want.

the same qualities with a grin.
I’ve got a kelpie/aussie mix who pokes me enough (she likes to
poke you with her nose)

You’ve got it for a good rule of thumb. I ended up getting a book for about
$5.00 that listed the calories, carbs, fat, protein, etc for common foods and
you may want to do that. Every food has a different protein count. Of
course, they usually list them as 4 ounce portions so you’ll still have to do
the
math–LOL.
