Low salt/low fat is the wrong approach!
The problem with the American diet is sugar, grain products and starchy vegetables. All the carbohydrates.
My lovely and I are on a high fat, high salt, very low carb nutrition plan. We have lost 200 pounds together and she has reversed her type 2 diabetes. She no longer injects insulin or takes the very expensive diabetic prescriptions at all. Our blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol levels are all within normal ranges with no statins. My lovely does take one small dose of high blood pressure medicine per day.
This is all under a MDs recommendation and supervision.
We have been mislead about nutrition for years and it is fattening us and the pocketbooks of the pharmaceutical industry

A low carb low sugar diet is definitely beneficial for folks with diabetes. However, heart conditions like congestive heart failure, are not the same disease.
It's great you've been able to get healthy, but your medical advice to others is severely dangerous. As my father had congestive heart failure, it concerns me when folks post on the internet that a low salt low fat diet is not beneficial or healthy and that all you have to do is eliminate sugar and carbs. Please keep the medical advice to yourself.
So it is ok for other people to express their *medical advice* only if you agree, thanks but no tganks....
I am 5 bypass heart surgery survivor I have done the research and I will stand by my own experience. I was not giving medical advice I was telling my experience. Just like everyone else has done on this thread. So Mister Toes Back off.

Nobody else has expressed medical advice. Everyone else has simply made suggestions on how to flavor in a low salt diet.
However, your very first statement was addressing the OP's medical need for a low salt diet and you then proceeded to tell the OP that his doctor's instructions were bad and that he is being misleaded into something that is not good for him.
As I said, I'm glad your health is on track, but comparing diabetes to heart disease is not helpful. Leave the medical advice at home and just address the question asked - how to make a low salt diet taste good.
P.S. I am not a Mister.
