    If freezing immediately you should be fine. The salt is there more for smoked sausages and dried meats that will hang for a while. Smoked sausage being cold smoked for flavor and color not to cook it. That said when thawing bring it up to temp asap if cooking on a smoker and you should be fine there

    Also the garlic celery and onion have been shown to reduce blood pressure as well. Do you know if you Chad is diastolic or systolic? I am guessing diastolic since you mentioned collecting in the pericardium vs in lungs and legs. Olive oil (virgin) is much better to cook with in either situation. Co enzyme CoQ10 is an amazing little thing in almost all high energy usage organs in the body elevated levels of such have shown good health benefit across the board. Many ways to elevate the intake of it take a look into them. Chad is a systemic thing not just a quick punch let's knock out the salt and limit water intake kind of thing. There are a lot of proven things just with the things you eat that will assist in keeping that nasty beast contained.

    Not sure what you're referring to--CHF is Congestive Heart Failure--mine is caused by several things--mainly enlarged heart muscle and several years' worth of sedentary lifestyle topped off by a winter of pneumonia leading to Atrial Fibrullation.

    I've been using CoQ10 in liquid form for about a year now...Thanks for your interest and concern--so What is CHad??

    PS my blood pressure is usually in the 105/70 range.

    What freezing or whatever poster asked about dry rubs. They get put on then the meat is cooked.

    Never heard of dry rubbed sausage.

    You should never dry rub sausage, it gets chafed.

    Just looking for ways to make my favorites without salt.

    As for smoking sausage I'll let that go.
    I make my own Italian sausage as it is nearly impossible to find a spicy enough product in the meat counters here west of the Cascades and now that I know I must limit my sodium intake to 2000mg/day I'm gonna make some without any salt in the mix.

    Fresh sausage you can make salt free, or hot smoked and eaten right away (or frozen raw to cook later). It is when you cold smoke sausage you need the salt and cure to prevent botulism and other nasty bugs.

    Check out Penzey's spices website. They have quite a few rubs & season mixtures that are salt free. Just type salt free in search function & they all pop up. They're very reasonable too!

    Thanks Clum but I went there and It's a bit too rich for this retired Papermaker--$66 for 2 Cups of "Mural of Flavor" is outta sight for me.
    I have the time and interest to dry and grind my own peppers and such and it's more hobby than chore for me.
