Does anyone else have a real 'body' longing for salt? I have never used a lot, don't cook with it usually, but since being on Lt I find myself really wanting something salty! Nowt so queer as folk I guess!!
Have you tried the flapjacks, they have a diostinct salty taste lol, probably not what you are craving but might help..![]()
Anne,
Thank God it wasnt just me!!!
Do you have low blood pressure?
I have huge cravings for salt when on TFR, it drives me nuts! I think it has a lot to do with the amount of water we are drinking as when its flushed thru the kidney it also removes a lot of the salt from your body too. I contacted LT about it and they were less than useless for advice so Im afraid its a case of putting up with it. Got to say the salt craving is far stronger than any cravings for food!
love T.x
