My husband, when he was feeding himself, lived on cheese hotdogs and then got high blood pressure and didn't understand. When he started paying attention to salt (he had no clue) to see if not eating as much would do anything (it didn't, they now know that only works for people susceptible to salt) he was totally surprised to find so much salt in milk, "How'd it get in there???" LOL; hello, it's a bodily fluid, blood has salt, so does milk. But I finally said, "how about I cook and you do dishes?" and that's how we have it arranged. I think both of our sugars and cholesterol were high last blood test we had. I so want to get exercising (but don't, so much for commitment and "wanting" something) as I think that might help a few things.

Good luck with your husband, EJ.
