Thoughts From Cathy~ For The Love Of Salt
For The Love of Salt
By Cathy Collar
Okay, I admit it. I am a saltaholic. There I have said it,
but I am not ashamed of it. I LOVE the taste of salt. I do not have high blood
pressure. I do not retain fluid and I am generally a very healthy person, so
therefore when I decide, and it is MY decision, to use salt on my food I should
not be criticized for it. In fact when I was pregnant with my 3rd
daughter I cut back on my salt intake like any good little mommy to be should.
The results were a severe blood pressure drop that caused very annoying dizzy
spells every time I stood up. Not knowing what was causing this problem I of
course went to my doctor who abruptly told me that even though he would not say
this to very many pregnant women I NEEDED TO EAT MORE SALT. So of course I did,
in the very healthy form of tomato juice. No more dizzy spells after that. I
also remember getting leg cramps during high school basketball practice and
having to take sodium pills for that. So I will eat my salt and be very happy
that I can without any adverse side effects. I did check pluses and minuses for
salt consumption for “Normal” people. We all need salt or actually sodium in
our body for it to function normally.
Our body needs a small amount of
sodium to help maintain normal function of nerves and muscles, especially in
relaxation and contraction and keep normal blood pressure. Also sodium
functions as a proper hydrator, Lower level of sodium in our body results in
dehydration. Insufficient sodium can also cause an imbalance in pH level of
blood and bad muscle function. The daily intake of sodium for a healthy adult
is 2,400 mg, but this may differ with each person.
So, I am going to continue to salt
my food, even after it has been cooked and use seasoned salts when I cook.
Those people who think this is wrong or BAD for me can just eat with someone
else. To all of my salt lover
friends out there let’s raise our salt-rimmed margarita glass and salute our
tasty seasoning, SALT!

Tessys Tales :The Bad Decision
Tess the Mess
Hi! It’s me Tess popping in to let everyone know that I am feeling better! I feel so good that I think it is time for mom to take me back out to the farm so that I can run and play and hunt!
But I haven’t convinced mom and vet Angie yet. I have done everything I can think of to let them know I am fine. I am gaining weight. I don’t feel like I need to eat all of the time, even though I do still gobble down my canned dog food as quick as I can. I gobble it down mainly so no one else will steal it from me, even though there isn’t anyone else in the back yard when I am being fed you never know when something’s gonna sneak up on ya.
Mom makes me take this yucky medicine. First she pries my mouth open and drops two pills in my throat. Then she tells me to swallow them. There isn’t much else I can do because she holds my mouth shut until I do. After that she gives me my canned dog food, but she pours this icky powder on the top of it, so I have to eat through it to get to the good stuff. I hate taking my medicine!
I was a bad girl yesterday but it wasn’t my fault. That stupid squirrel was to blame. I was sitting in the yard watching the birds in the trees, when it jumped up on the fence! It hopped and skipped and made mocking clicking sounds at me. I had to get that squirrel! I ran to the fence but was violently jerked back by my tie out. I had to get off! I know this trick. If I grab my color with my mouth and pull it up then I can use my paw and sometimes I can get the clip on my tie out to open. After a little work I got it and I was off! The stupid squirrel was still on the fence, so I went straight for him, unfortunately, he got away cheating by climbing up the tree. It didn’t matter though, cause I was FREE! I jumped the back gate and headed out for a good long run, but I forgot that the two little dogs, Missy a Chihuahua, and Reiley a Lhasa Apso, were in the backyard and they both told mom that I had escaped. I ran to the next block down, but there were a bunch of other dogs there and they told on me also.
I spotted mom’s big car and changed direction. I didn’t think she saw me, but I ran as fast as I could just in case she did. I smelled something really good so I headed downtown. It wasn’t very far away, but I was getting really tired. I must not have been as well has I thought. I knew I needed to go back home and rest. Just then I saw mom drive by my in her big car. She was hollering my name. As she stopped I ran to the car and whined. She heard me panting and got out to open the door so she could take me home. Believe me, I was more than ready to go. I jumped into the big car and mom took me home and put me back on my tie out, this time with a double hook. She was a little mad at me.
So now I am stuck on the double tie out in the backyard again, but that’s all right for now because I am more than ready for a good long nap. But tomorrow is another day.
