Two ways I do this. First is to use sodium-rich vegetables such as
celery, zuchinni, etc. There are also tangy herbs which may be used
fresh from the garden and, if you like it, kelp. The other is to use
very small amounts of sea salt in lieu of table salt. IMHO the sea
salt's complexity of elements makes it acceptable and a "must have" in
my diet. I am not familiar with Cordain but perhaps the reference was
to sodium chloride (which is a killer, I feel).
