@gwladj76 NIH is aware. I find the only way to control sodium is to cook for myself with known ingredients. Absolutely nothing prepackaged. Admittedly I am fairly used to “scratch” cooking. I stopped adding salt. I eat out very rarely which may not be an option for you.

@ailsas It's those family get-togethers to celebrate an anniversary, birthday, whatever. Many are too busy to cook a home meal, or too feeble to do so. I make a lot of my own meals from scratch, adhering to CKD guidance. My wife doesn't contribute much around the house, preferring to watch TV all day - literally. So, I'm on my journey, mostly fighting alone, trying to keep our home functioning. I have several interests (hobbies), cooking is one of them. With so much to do (maintenance- daily chores), sometimes it is overwhelming and exhausting. It's good NIH is aware, but I'm surprised they have not issued guidance to the food industry. Maybe, that day is coming.
