1.0 out of 5 stars
Commercial effort,
By A Customer
This review is from: Get the Salt out: 501 Simple Ways to Cut Salt out of Any Diet (Paperback)
This book will not help readers who really need to understand what No Salt means. It's recipes are off the wall and its textbook appearance is a turn off, especially since most of the material is basic. Recipes have too much sodium and even use some salt in many of them. For instance, her "Annette's Oatmeal Waffles" recipe has about 200mg of sodium per waffle. Too high for heart patients or those with hypertension. There are occassional assists concerning where to find certain foods and condiments, but that's as far as it goes. The author's designated authority is her M.S. and her CNS (certified nutritional scientist), but she had no R.D., which puts her out of the nutritional loop as far as authority. Her connection with the Pritikin group makes her effort suspect as a commercial venture.

Get the Salt Out is a Great Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Get the Salt out: 501 Simple Ways to Cut Salt out of Any Diet (Paperback)
This book was so easy to read and follow that I did not feel that I was on a restricted diet. The book identified lots of hidden sources of salt that I had no idea existed and made me feel that I was in safe hands following the author's advice.

Excellent Book to Prevent High Sodium Conditions- Goes Far,
By A Customer
This review is from: Get the Salt out: 501 Simple Ways to Cut Salt out of Any Diet (Paperback)
I thought this book was extremely innovative..The author identifies numerous sources of hidden sodium in the environment..from water softeners to various preservatives and seasonings in fast food itself..She also points out, unlike any other book I have ever read, that stress can affect our body's retention of sodium..So this book delivers alot more than those other cut and dry and simplistic American Heart Association resources. Gittleman is always ahead of the crowd and this book is no exception.
