Taco Bell & Sodium
There are a lot of menu items which are rich in salt. Excess in your eating plan can contribute to the following health ills:
1. Increase in blood pressure.
2. Bloating, swelling.
3. Water retention which registers false pounds on the scales.
4. Increased thirst.
5. Most foods which contain excessive amounts of salt also are mined with fat grams.
There are some menu selections which can fit into a healthy weight loss plan based on calorie values, as well as salt content - but if we just look at the amount of salt, the selections are narrowed significantly.
