The Mrs. Dash® Brand
According to the 2005 USDA Dietary Guidelines, our daily diets should include no more than 2,300 mg of sodium. However, the average daily intake is 4,000 mg. Reducing the amount of sodium in your diet can help reduce blood pressure, risk of heart disease and the tendency to get headaches.
One simple step to help reduce the amount of sodium in your diet is to use seasoning like Mrs. Dash® Seasoning Blends. All of Mrs. Dash® products are made with flavorful combinations of 14 natural herbs and spices that are salt-free with no MSG.
By choosing any of Mrs. Dash®'s 12 Seasoning Blends or 4 new 10-Minute Marinades, you can take a first step in reducing the amount of sodium in your diet and enjoy a healthier heart.
