Balancing Protein and Sodium
Protein has a number of important roles in the body including satiety, maintaining muscle mass, balancing blood sugars and making hormones and enzymes. We need sodium to live, but too much causes problems. Understanding the sources and ideal intake of these important nutrients is helpful for our general health and specific health concerns. Participation encouraged for people living with chronic kidney disease (GFR 30-60), high blood pressure, heart disease, edema or for those just interested in eating well for health.
