GM diet and salt intake 

The General Motors (GM) weight diet does not overtly mention about the intake of salt or any minerals in its foods during the days of dieting. Advocators of the GM diet are silent on the use of salt in the foods you will be consuming as part of the GM diet. However it is understood that salt can be part of the foods that you consume on day five of the diet. Since the first four days are concentrated on fruits, vegetables, blend of vegetables and fruits, bananas and milk respectively, the option of eating cooked food falls on the fifth day.

On day five, beef and tomatoes are part of the menu. To cook beef you will need to add salt either as part of the marinade or seasoning. To prepare or make beef it is recommended you add salt to the beef which can also be seasoned with a fair amount of spices as determined by the amount you consume. However increase the water intake on day five as you may be have an build up of extra amounts of uric acid. Opt for lemon juice in place of salt, if you are still unsure about adding salt during the GM diet, as lemon juice as healthier benefits and also do not compromise on taste.
