Humans are natural salt seekers. Salt tastes good to us, and there is good reason for this. The emphasis on very low-salt diets is misguided. Fix the food - and then you can put some salt on your healthy food if you'd like. Focus on food, not salt. Dr. McDougall explains it in this talk from our 2009 Healthy Lifestyle Expo.

John A. McDougall (born May 17, 1947) is an American physician and author who is the co-founder, chairman, and sole board member of San Francisco–based Dr. McDougall's Right Foods Inc. He has written a number of diet books advocating the consumption of low-fat, starchy food. He often says that he is fortunate, because his patients are usually leaving him being well.
