A large part of buying right is searching for sellers with limited alternatives. When sellers are not under any time pressure, it's hard to get good buys. When they are under a lot of time pressure, you can often get terrific buys. Some of the best buys we've made have been from sellers who called us back weeks after they turned down our original offer ("I hope you get what you're asking, but if you don't, call me.")

Rinse canned foods that contain sodium. To flavor your food, substitute salt with herbs, spices, lemon, lime, vinegar, white or red wine. Avoid condiments that are high in salt, e.g. soy sauce, teriyaki sauce and anything that contains MSG (monosodium glutamate). Avoid salted butter and sauces/dressings which are high in salt. Eating foods that are high in potassium, such as bananas, beans, dark leafy greens, potatoes, squash, yogurt, fish, mushrooms and avocadoes, can help you balance out some of the harmful effects that sodium has on your blood pressure.
