I am curious about anyone that follows a low sodium diet.
What do you eat, what do you not eat?
My dad has emphysema and has been in rehab/hospital for the past 8 weeks (for a bad bout of pneumonia). He comes home today!! His doctor told him he needs to follow a low sodium / low sugar diet. Mainly because he is on so many meds and they tend to make him retain water.
We went out and bought a bunch of good food for him (from the list his doctor gave him). But I am curious to know more.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Tara
P.S. He is a big salt eater - but he is willing to change (thank god) and he knows he will feel better if he does.
