Amanda Ursell on how to beat bloating
Average rating: 3 out of 5 star rating

The maximum amount of salt we should be eating according to the government is 6g. Many experts believe, however, that it should be much lower, around 3g each per day and that by cutting back to this amount we could really help to reduce our blood pressure. Doing so would have another added benefit.. weight loss. Reducing salt intakes helps our bodies to release excess water it stores (which is responsible for swollen ankles and bloating). You can literally lose 3lb in weight over just a few days in this way, which is great if you need to slim down quickly to get into a special party outfit.
