All About Sodium

Diet-to-Go meal plans are low in
sodium and high in flavor.

As the Registered Dietitian for Diet-to-Go, I often get phone calls and emails asking about the sodium content in our meal plans, and I’m always happy to assure customers that we take the issue of sodium very seriously.  In fact, at Diet-to-Go, we’re passionate about creating fresh, chef-inspired, low-sodium meal plans that never compromise flavor or health.

Yes, we offer menus that meet or exceed the guidelines for low-sodium diets!

While we have never added salt, flavor enhancers or preservatives to our food, we are proud to say we now have four delicious meal plans that contain less than the 2,400mg per day dietary guidelines for sodium.  These are now our most popular menus.

If you are trying to limit your salt intake or your doctor has recommended a low-sodium diet, you can confidently select one of these plans. 

You won’t miss the salt!

We challenged our chefs to combine fresh, flavorful and healthful ingredients in a way that guarantees you won’t miss the sodium—and they did.  The sodium in all of our meals comes from naturally occurring sodium in the fresh food plus small amounts from carefully selected ingredients we use to prepare our recipes.

Getting started is easy.

We know that health objectives, doctor’s instructions and preferences vary - so our knowledgeable representatives are standing by to help you choose the perfect plan for your individual needs. Contact a representative.
