Salt craving

[mali42]

I know I have far to much salt than is good for me and wondered if anyone else craves it as well,
If I have a packet of plain crisps I always add salt.

I don't have high blood pressure which I know to much salt can cause
I googled it and there are links to Addison's disease.

Should I be worried ?

I absolutely love salt too - but blood pressure etc is okay.

No idea why!

Hi Stella
It seems we are the only salt addicts on here
I might mention it next time I am at the doctors if I remember.

I shouldn't worry too much, Malcolm. Ask your GP if it'll put your mind at ease, but I love salt too, and there's nothing wrong with my blood pressure! Heaven knows we get BP checked often enough to be certain of that one! I have to confess that there's a particular member of our extended family who very occasionally cooks a meal for Tommy and me. She uses no salt at all, and I can't eat the meal until I've made an excuse to sneak out to the kitchen and bring some back in with me!
Best wishes,
Gillie.

When I was pregnant I couldn't get enough salt! All I wanted to eat was chip-shop chips drenched in salt, and McCoys salt & vinegar crisps!

Perhaps you should be worried!
