It is your body telling you it needs a particular substance. Things I can't stand normally I ate when I was pregnant. My vegetarian cousin craved rare, bloody meat when she was pregnant with twins because her iron was low.



That being said, even though they make me sick, I still occasionally crave something in a Big Mac. I no longer act on those cravings though. In that case I think it is addiction speaking - though to what exactly I could not say. Is it the fat, the sugar? Or something else?

I was thinking of pica - I remember one pregnant woman eating laundry soap. Those types of cravings are hard to ignore.

My neighbours kids came over asking for a cup of soy sauce. I gave them what's left in the entire bottle due to the salt content no long being part of what I can eat.

Now I have to de-sodium the rest of everything.

If so what the trade off, usually when sodium is lowered something else get elevated.

1 slice of bacon has 137.4mg of sodium (oh, who can only eat 1 slice), so Bsuds how much is 1 slice of low sodium Costco per/slice... just out of curiosity.

Please provide proof that sodium is not one of the main contributor to hypertension.
