Low sodium or DASH diet while at Disney?

[mommy2paisley]

We have never had any special dietary concerns, and this not being an allergy, I wasn’t sure and wanted to ask here. I know Disney is good when it comes to menu items for different food allergies (or at least that is what I have heard family and friends and read a bit online about, as I don’t have personal experience with that). But what about a low sodium diet? My husband has been on the DASH diet and has cut down on his sodium and mostly cut out red meat. It has helped him gave perfect BP and not beef BP meds, which is awesome! Are there any restaurants that he can request items from the menu prepared without all the salt that is usually used on regular foods? I don’t mean at buffets or anything. He will be pretty good at just choosing items that wouldn’t have been prepared with a lot of salt. But what about the signature restaurants? Are they able to take those types of requests?

All of the Disney restaurants have always been wonderful with my son who has food allergies. If you just let them know when you check in (there’s a place on the reservation to check special requests, not sure if low sodium is on there), they’ll have a chef come out and talk to you. They’ll ask what you want and let you know if they can alter that for you or not.
