    One thing. Stop adding salt to your food. Once you do that you will begin to notice the tremendous amount of salt that is already added to most processed foods and you’ll learn to choose your foods more carefully. Salt will cause you to retain fluids and swell your body, as well as raise your blood pressure. Good luck.

    One major thing to do is reduce your salt intake, and that includes all sodium in prepared foods that come in containers of any sort from your grocery store. The maximum amount of salt you should be eating is between 2 and 2.5 grams (2000-2500mg) per day. That’s about a level teaspoon. Fill up on vegetables and fruit rather than carbohydrates like sugar and starches. Get your weight into the safe BMI range (check out your BMI at http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/) by eating fewer calories and exercising more. A drop of 1000 fewer calories a day (e.g., 500 fewer food calories and 500 extra exercise calories) will result in a weight loss of 2 pounds a week.
