Which is a safe way to improve the taste of a low-salt diet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Use lemon juice and suitable herbs
A low-salt diet limits sodium, so flavour should be improved without adding high-sodium ingredients. Lemon juice, garlic, ginger, pepper, coriander, mint, and suitable herbs or spices can provide aroma and taste when medically appropriate. Pickles, packaged salty foods, and extra table salt may increase sodium intake and defeat the purpose of the diet. Therefore, option A is correct.
