EatLowSodium now markets over one hundred low sodium foods at its online store

USA, Hallandale, FL (SANEPR.com) July 1, 2008 -- Patients of various ailments such as hypertension, diabetes, and Meniere’s disease follow a low sodium diet. While most unprocessed foods such as fresh vegetables and fruits have naturally low sodium, a lot of processed, canned products have high amounts of sodium. The sodium level is so high in certain canned products that it presents a serious problem for many, especially for those who have to be on low sodium diet.

It is not easy to find low sodium versions of some of these foods. For instance, snacks, canned soups we find in supermarkets typically contain 400 milligrams of sodium and more (many over 1,000 milligrams per serving). This is where EatLowSodium.com stepped in:

EatLowSodium began listing low sodium versions of foods that we would normally find high in sodium while shopping at supermarkets and grocery stores. The list contains products such as salt free ketchup, low sodium cereals, baked beans, protein powders, sodium free peanut butter, mustard and many others. The list tops over 100 products and aims to be the largest list of low and no sodium foods in the Internet.

The site founder Umit Demir commented that the site lists products that have less than 150 milligrams of sodium per serving. Most products on the site have no sodium. “We also make sure we do not add products that can be harmful for other healthy diets in our list. For instance we exclude items that are high in carbohydrates, gluten or fat,” added Mr. Demir.

The site plans to enlarge the list and include over 500 products for low sodium dieters by the end of the year.
