Low-salt marinades make for great grilling

Do you like marinading that chicken breast or fish fillet before you bake or grill it? Those two items are generally low in bad fat and are healthy in protein, so they make great entrees or even snacks.

Just don't wash them in a high-sodium marinade filled with high-fructose corn syrup and hundreds of milligrams of sodium. There are other solutions and the end result is just as tasty.

Ever use fresh lemon or dill? How about salt-free seasoning that combines a plethora of spices but zero salt? How about squeezing oranges and limes on that chicken? Forget processed (but albeit, tasty) marinades and go for natural alternatives that won't turn that healthy meal into a high-sodium situation (along with MSG and other components found in some marinades).
