JoAnn, With that little amount of sodium in your diet, you might actually be needing a little bit more. Try putting a dash of Maldon sea salt on one food at one meal daily, keep up the water, and see if the puffiness diminishes. One thing I learned when I was pregnant is that "good" salt, in moderation, does NOT cause puffiness (provided your water intake is adequate); in fact, a salt *deficiency* can actually cause the puffiness that people generally associate with too much salt. It is important not to have too much sodium, but it is also important to not have too little. You might also increase potassium, iodine and other "salty" minerals by adding a strip of kombu seaweed to broths and soups. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
