Salt adds flavour—but too much can lead to bloating, high blood pressure, and imbalance in the body. At Sattvic Grains, we believe in mindful eating that supports long-term vitality.
🌿 Simple Ways to Reduce Excessive Salt Intake:
🔸 Use rock salt (sendha namak) – It’s gentler on the body and preferred in Ayurveda.
🔸 Flavour with herbs & spices – Ginger, cumin, coriander, and lemon add taste without sodium.
🔸 Avoid packaged snacks & pickles – These are often loaded with hidden salt.
🔸 Cook fresh, eat fresh – Home-cooked meals let you control salt levels.
🔸 Rinse canned foods – If using canned beans or veggies, rinse them to reduce sodium.
🔸 Taste before you salt – Often, food is flavorful enough without extra seasoning.
🌱 Ayurvedic Insight:
Excess salt aggravates Pitta and Kapha doshas, leading to water retention, skin issues, and irritability. Favour light, cooling foods and balance with bitter and astringent tastes.
📿 Sattvic Tip:
Try seasoning your dal or sabzi with roasted cumin, fresh coriander, and a squeeze of lime—it’s flavorful, sattvic, and heart-friendly.
Make sure to get iodised rock salt. Or keep switching to table salt in between.
