When I first started low carb, I was switching over from the DASH diet to lower bp. That meant that I was limiting sodium to only 1500 mg daily. That's quite low. I continued this restriction for a while after switching to low carb (at the time, Atkins induction.) After learning more about sodium, I decided to stop restriction. My bp did not rise, and I felt a lot better. Incidentally, the DASH diet did not lower my bp. However, low carb did.

These days, if chips look good to me, I know that a nice bowl of my favorite crunchy vegetable (cauliflower) mixed with some coconut oil, and then salted, will take care of that. Tastes absolutely fantastic to me and gets rid of the salt and crunch craving.
