Y'all need to remember, that to eat low sodium, it is imperative to stay away from most restaurants.
I know......it's not fair is it?

Some restaurants are accommodating. We have one here whose owner has a husband with CHF, and she was wonderful about putting together a meal for Joe. It wasn't easy, because many things are pre-seasoned. But it did work out well.

Hey Cooker!
2 things -
First, congrats on your weight loss.
Second, I think you're smart to be questioning the soup. Anything we do repetitively like 2 cans of soup/day while dieting is cause for review.
I personally don't care much for salt. Seems to me everything pre-made has too much of it. I like to cook from scratch to avoid it.
My favorite quick "home cooked" chicken soup consists of low sodium organic chicken broth (the kind in a milk carton container), a whole cooked chicken from the grocery store, fresh carrots & celery. Strip the meat from the cooked chicken and combine it all in a pot and call it your own. Just delicious.
Peace,
Ruth

My salt intake has to lower because of high blood pressure and water retention. It's shocking to see how much sodium is in foods. I was surprised to see that milk has sodium.

Mmmmmm, treat yourself to some wild rice with that soup. I like to spoon the rice right INTO the soup when serving. Yum, I'm getting hungry now.
