It is hard to imagine cooking without salt, but it remains useful for the body only when consumed in moderation. Gradually, its amount in the diet has to be reduced.

It is believed that one should not consume more than 5 grams of salt per day, either in live form or present in prepared foods.

However, you can replace salt without depriving yourself of gastronomic pleasure. Here are some products that will successfully cope with this task.

1. Sun-dried tomatoes, which are healthy for the body because they contain vitamin C. They also taste a little salty and are also rich in fiber.

You can add them to salads and omelettes, dough, cottage cheese, etc.

3. Dried bell peppers and carrots can also take on the role of salt.

4. You won’t go wrong if you decide to use seaweed, which is also a source of iodine.

5. And of all the ingredients that most closely resemble salt in taste, this is Adyghe salt. Only in comparison with table salt, one tablespoon of it contains more seasonings and spices and much less salt itself.
