Can a pinch of salt make a big difference in a diet?

Question

I hate eating my meals so plainly, so can a pinch of salt make a big difference in fat loss?

Answer 1

Salt is primarily a problem for people with high blood pressure or people with kidney disease. It is not really a factor in weight loss UNLESS you are retaining water. If you have a tendency to retain fluids, salt will make the problem worse. Obviously, if you are retaining water, you are carrying around the weight of the water, too.

Answer 2

adding salt doesn't add calories/kilojoules, however keep in mind that approximately 1/4 of the weight of table salt is sodium. And most adults EASILY exceed the daily recommended amounts of sodium (1500-2000 mg), so be careful. There is also iodized salt which contains iodine (to prevent goitre), better than sea salt.

Answer 3

Yes why not
just add a pinch of salt on one of your wounds
and u will regret what u did
(as u will be feeling o diet full of pain)

Answer 4

Sea salt is good for you.One quarter of a tea spoon a day will provide a lot of minerals and trace metals we are of need.

Answer 5

As long as it is just a pinch, that is fine, just don't overdo it. A pinch is very small. Just don't use a tablespoon. That would be too much.

Answer 6

yes i was taught that u do not need to add salt because there is already enough in the food for recomended daily intake which is around 200mg

Answer 7

salt will cause your body to retain more water than it needs...try herbs and spices instead fro taste improvement, they're a lot safer and have positive beneficial results on your health as well

Answer 8

no , just take it in moderation.
