Patis aka fish sauce is no good

Posted On November 15, 2006

Why does my grandmother have sodium deficiency? She eats so much patis aka fish sauce.

The latest blood test that shows she is cronically deficient in salt shows that patis cannot substitute for real sea salt. Patis may taste salty, but it has no nutrients.

Everyone dump your patis and switch to unrefined sea salt.

I just read the nutritional label of a patis bottle we have at home and it says:

2 tablespoons = 1 serving

gives Sodium 15% RDA

So what is wrong with this?

1/2 tablespoon of salt = 100% RDA of a 150 lb person

This is how deficient patis users are when it comes to salt!
