and picked up my regiment of drugs.. Mg, so many! I also got a pamphlet about eating low sodium and low sugar food. Salt is pretty much a killer, I guess. I hardly used it for my food, with the exception of Soy Salt, and I know a brand at Japantown that has no sodium at all. Guess I will stock up! Finding foods that are not packed with Sodium will not be easy. If its not hard to find, it will be expensive.

Seems the health food systems in this country are making a ton of bucks over food that is more healthy, than the norm. Its no wonder so many of us in this country are considered obese, or have high blood pressure, simply due to the way our food is sold. Well, guess I will have to be more careful in the future if that is even possible.
