I don't cook with salt so it has to be other things I am eating. I very rarely use processed foods (boxed, etc). I am single cooking only for me, not a big cook but willing to try. Any ideas on basic things to eat that are not totally gross? Ways to cook them?
I also exercise (minus this week, got the flu) for an hour, walking four miles, everyday

You need to be put onto meds to get rid of the salt in your body (my mother doesn't eat a lot of sodium either, but was put on meds for the same thing). Be forewarned that these pills make you pee often, but you will lose a little bit of weight and your blood pressure will go down significantly! High blood pressure puts you at risk for heart and kidney problems. If you are not already on medication you should go to the doctor asap!

When I was diagnosed with high blood pressure about 14 years ago the first question the doctor asked me 'what age did your parents die'. They were both still alive at the time, my dad was 88 and my mum was 78. I have never ever taken salt with or on my meals, it is something I have always done and yet I have high blood pressure, so I really do not think that salt has anything to do with it. I could be wrong of course as I am not a medical person, all I know is that I never take salt with anything. I have to take tablets for the rest of my life now and I have to be honest I do not feel any different on the tablets or off them.

I have been working really hard to get a lean body. I go to the gym every day, watch what I eat, but still could not get the body I wanted. That was until I found this body cleansing stuff. I was able to get the great body I wanted in 9 days. I did a 9 day cleanse and lost 15 pounds and 17 inches, 3 inches from my waist! I had been working so hard for over a year to get this, and this program gave me what I wanted in 9 days. I found out that many body builders use this to get ready for competitions because the protein in the shakes builds muscle and the cleanse helps to get rid of the toxins stored in the fat cells. When the toxins are removed, the fat cells shrink and you definitely can tell in the way your clothes fit! I recommend this product for anyone wanting to get a better looking body quickly. I found out about it at this toll free number 1-877-587-4647. It is expensive but it works! You can get cleansing info at this website http://GetAnewBod.com

Try using sea sult as an alterintive because it has less sodium and it tastes a lot better then the table salt. We actully use it in my house all the time its about the only salt we buy

Your blood pressure may not be tied to your diet. It doesn't sound like you eat that badly. It could be stress.
