    No Salt/ Low Salt/ Salt Substitutes

    Most Smoking seems to require a lot of salt. It is like the number one ingredient in most rubs. This is a problem with my wife and I. We have been smoking for a month now and we both wake up with puffy eyes from salt retention. How do most of you folks deal with this? Just use less salt...
