Have you ever wondered why smooth and unblemished skin is a thing reserved only for celebrities and internet-figures? In other words : people with more money. That is because healthy skin is not something you are born with but strive to perfect it while you compete with adolescence and external factors as you grow. Money is just a catalyst. A very effective one. Combined with exorbitant skin-protection, enhancement creams and surgeries too expensive to pronounce, you probably have the shorter end of the stick. But here’s the recipe for clear skin that extends far beyond a healthy exterior to benefit your entire body while cosmetic products can only do so little.

THE SALTY TRUTH ABOUT SODIUM
Sodium is a double edged sword. Too much of it can create fluid retention and high blood pressure and too little can disrupt nerves and the body’s meticulous fluid balance. Cardiologists heavily recommend a low sodium diet to compromised patients due to its sensitive relationship with stroke, heart attack and kidney failure.
Cardiologists and health specialists highly suggest keeping your daily salt level to 2300 mg of sodium a day (equivalent to a teaspoon of salt).
Salt has become an omnipresent entity throughout culinary history. It's difficult to remove such an influential ingredient from our lifestyle due to its influential hold on the food market. However, taste is a repairable sense formed from habit. Decreasing sodium content from your daily life allows you to unlearn your tolerance for high salt levels.
Involving more fresh fruits, vegetables and meat into your diet repairs your need for excess sodium. Preservatives contain a lot of sodium so any item that stays 'fresh' in the fridge for longer than a few days should be consumed minimally. The DASH diet is highly accredited among cardiologists. It's a systematic diet regimen that cuts off excess sodium, cholesterol and fats to decrease blood pressure. Check out our past articles for more detail!
There are plenty of substitutes for salt that work even better with certain types of food. Herbs, spices, lemon zest, lime and vinegar are tastier options than plain old boring salt. Since sodium is such an influential element in modern diets, It takes 6-8 weeks to fine-tune your taste. A slow withdrawal from the eleventh element of the periodic table is harsh at first but ultimately beneficial in the long run. Keep going!
