Replace salt with herbs

Consuming excessive amounts of salt disrupts the balance of blood, which makes it difficult for the kidneys to eliminate water and this could potentially cause kidney diseases. Yet an alarming number of Western diets still overindulge in intake of salt. 

It is advised by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to limit their salt intake to one teaspoon per day, or 2,300 mg. Care must be taken while eating high sodium in pre-cooked processed foods as well.
