Roughly 45 percent of American adults have either hypertension (high blood pressure) or pre-hypertension, and our salt-laden food supply is a major culprit. Until now, the only way to dodge the salt has been to cook from scratch and hold the saltshaker.

Instead of the 500 to 1,000 mg of sodium you'd get in two tablespoons of many marinades, you get zero. So, tell us: if Mrs. Dash can create such superb flavor without salt, why can't the rest of the food industry?
