Low-sodium diets can help prevent or minimize health conditions as well as improve overall health. If you have a medical condition such as hypertension, kidney disease or diabetes or if you are older than 50, it is important to avoid too much salt. If you're looking for ways to reduce your sodium intake, there are several tasty, no-salt sauces available to add flavor to your food, with options ranging from hot sauce to sweet and sour sauce.

Dave's Ultimate Insanity Hot Sauce
This salt-free, thick, brownish sauce is extremely hot. It is packed with flavor and spice, and just a few drops will add zing to soups, stir fry, chili, dressings and meat. Red habanero peppers, hot pepper and red chiles push the spicy level to the max, so use with care--a few drops will go a long way. The sauce is concentrated, so it should be diluted. Avoid contact with skin, as it may burn. The sauce is made with a tomato base and contains only 10 calories per 1 tbsp. serving.
