If you're anything like me (lover of food, hot sauce, and puppies) then I can almost guarantee that you're using way more than just a tsp of hot sauce on each meal. This is perfectly okay if you're using a low sodium hot sauce, but check the label next time so you don't end up consuming way more salt than your body needs. A little sodium in your diet isn't bad, in fact it's actually necessary, but too much sodium isn't that great and may leave you feeling bloated like a balloon. Excess sodium will cause your body to retain extra water so stick with a lower sodium option if you want to remain bloat free!
