To help Clarissa cut back on salt, the best choice would be a food that is naturally low in sodium and minimally processed. Fresh fruits and vegetables are excellent options. For instance, a fresh apple or a salad made with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes (without added dressing or salt) would be ideal. These foods not only have low sodium content but also provide essential nutrients and fiber.
If you are considering specific food items, opting for whole grains like brown rice or quinoa (without added salt) would also be a good choice. Avoid processed foods, canned goods, or foods with added sauces, as these tend to have higher sodium levels.
