I can't believe my eyes, Bill. Are you having a salad for lunch? No hamburger?
Get used to it, Mary. I'm off hamburgers for good health. Most fast food is loaded with sodium.
I know. But why are you suddenly interested in lessening your salt intake?
My doctor says I should cut back on sodium-rich foods to lower my blood pressure.
Do you have hypertension? I would have thought you were too young.
Actually, my blood pressure isn't that high yet, but they say it increases with age.
Well, I'm glad you're starting to pay more attention to your diet.
I want to lower my risk of heart attack and stroke, too.
So do I. That's why I've been trying to lower my cholesterol level.
I've noticed you've been munching away on lots of fruits and vegetables recently.
