Low Sodium
Deli Meat
Deli meats are not good for you when on a low sodium diet, they are full of gluten, antibiotic
residues, preservatives and sugar.
Deli meats
can include leftover organs and scraps, which are then cured with starch, salt,
corn syrup and preservatives like nitrates. Nitrates make the meat last longer
because they kill bacteria and give deli meats their color.
Try and avoid
deli meats but if you must have them in your sandwich here are the Top 5 Low
Sodium Deli Meats you can choose from:
1. Boar’s Head
Ovengold® Roasted Turkey Breast – Skinless
2. Applegate
Naturals® Smoked Turkey Breast
3. Oscar Mayer
Deli Fresh Lower Sodium Rotisserie Chicken Breast
4. Boar's Head
Simplicity® All Natural* Cap-Off Top Round Oven Roasted Beef
5. Land O'Frost
Simply Delicious Hickory Smoked Ham.
Tips:
It’s
important to pay attention to three main areas: food labels, food handlers, and
the deli counter environment.
To get the
freshest slices ask the deli counter attendant to save the first slice for
their pre-made sandwiches and foods or ask to taste-test the first slice
instead.
If you are
getting a sandwich made for you ask for your sandwich to be made fresh in front
of you and you’ll be able to control what goes into your order.
