Self reliant people need to be healthy-- many seek to reduce salt and sugar intake. When trying to cut back on salts and sugars, one needs substitutes, here are a few ideas--

Instead of salt try:

• Horseradish (Try this on steak or tomatoes!)
• Garlic
• Worcestershire sauce
• Tabasco
• Vinegar
• Lemon
• Basil (Fresh is great on anything!)
• Pepper

Instead of sugar try:

• Honey
• Orange or other juice
• Cinnamon
• Mint

Then again, there is always salt or sugar in moderation . . .
