sodium intake

I am 54 yr old male with chf am having hard time as I also have crohns disease. I crave salt like crazy but on my sodium levels it is normal to low side. I take in a lot of salt because of the cravings.  How can I stop this vicious cycle?

Dear Bob,

You should limit fluid to 1500 mls per day and 2 grams of salt.

You may try using different spices and lemon as an alternative to salt.

Best of luck.
