    How to do it

    1. Taste before you add salt at the table.
    2. Season with herbs, garlic, lemon or spices first.
    3. Glance at the salt line on labels for bread, sauces and ready meals.
    4. Log salty days next to your leg check-ins if you like.

    Easier version

    Swap one salty snack or sauce a week.

    Why women include it

    Some women notice how salty meals sit with them and like to keep a note. Herbs and lemon are an easy way to add flavour.
