 Re: Sodium Nitrates? | |
They aren't good for you b/c they are linked to cancer like the pp said. I don't have a sodium tolerance issue. I have very low blood pressure and when I deny myself sodium I don't feel *right* I add deli ham and bacon to my menu options and have not had problems. When I can I avoid them...but where I am, I can't seem to find some options that still don't have sugar. Sodium Nitrates are used as a preservative and they are hard to avoid altogether
