Radishes may be small, but they pack a serious punch of nutrients with virtually no sodium. These crunchy, peppery root vegetables are loaded with vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants that support immune function, digestion, and heart health. Their high water content helps with hydration, while their natural spiciness adds bold flavor to dishes without the need for added salt. Radishes can be enjoyed raw in salads, thinly sliced in sandwiches, pickled for extra tang, or roasted to mellow their bite and enhance their sweetness.

Cauliflower is a low-calorie, low-sodium cruciferous vegetable that can be transformed into countless healthy meals. It’s rich in fiber, vitamin C, and powerful plant compounds that help fight inflammation and support heart health. Because of its mild flavor, cauliflower is a perfect blank canvas for spices and seasonings that don’t require added salt. Roast it with turmeric, garlic, and olive oil, mash it as a healthy alternative to potatoes, or blend it into a creamy, dairy-free soup for a nutrient-packed meal.
