guess who doesn't have cancer? its me! apparently i've chipped a rib and every time i breathe it pulls the chip away from the rib so it can't heal and hurts lots. thats a relief. i've celebrated by buying more fags.

My girlfriend managed to bring hers down in a couple of weeks just by reducing salt in her diet.

i've got no sense of smell so i salt the fuck out of every meal just so as i can taste something. if its a choice between high blood pressure and tasteless food its not really a competition.

Don't want to have a heart attack.
Benecol! And.....erm....vegetables!
Don't use salt until you've had 6 bites of your food. If, after the 6 bites you still think it needs it, use half what you would and then have 12 bites. That's how I weaned my dad off salt.

we used to make the popcorn and see how salty we could make it. when you put five times as much salt in as you're supposed to its amazing. getting giddy off evil amounts of salt is strange.

Try the 6 bits/12 bites thing, it worked for my pa. I'm not a dietician, my family just come to me for medical advice because I've read some books.

I season most things, but I also eat a lot of vegetables, comfortably more than 5 portions a day.

I normally have onions and carrots in just about everything I cook, and a glass of fruit juice, so I'm on 3 already.
Then just a couple of extra veg, it's not too difficult.

I also wonder why they don't just eat a few vegetables now and again.

I forgot to buy new salt for a while and now I don't bother putting it on much.
A bit of pepper is good on steak but it certainly doesn't need any salt, not unless you've bought the bland tasteless crap they tend to sell in supermarkets.

I just find salt brings out the flavours. Especially on the fat.

lamb really needs as well. get a good handful of sea salt and rosemary and rub that into the fat of belly lamb and that's more or less heavenly.
