Toronto resources--counselling, therapy & personal growth
Low salt diet? Great! BUT--if you're not eating much table salt you might require an iodine supplement. Ontario (and most of Canada) is in the Goitre Belt. A recent study of people on a low salt diet found that 40% of the women had an iodine deficiency.
