Instead of “improving” them with salt, use herbs and spices (garlic, onion, pepper, oregano, rosemary, turmeric) for cooking.
Check the labels: if a product contains a lot of sodium per serving, it is best to eat it on special occasions, not for dinner.
If you suffer from kidney disease, be careful using salt substitutes containing potassium: they may not be suitable for you.
3) Red meat and cold cuts for dinner (larger quantity, lower quality)
The goal is not to “ban” them, but to understand their impact: red meat, and especially processed meat (sausages), is associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease if consumed in large quantities and frequently.
Additionally, processed meats often combine:
High sodium content
Extras
Less healthy fat
