Abstract
Home food preservation can be an excellent option for people who want to reduce the amount of sugar or sodium in their diets. At harvest, foods are naturally low in sodium and added sugars. When fresh foods are processed commercially, both sugar and sodium are added because they function as preservatives. By processing fresh foods at home, you can modify the amounts of sugar and sodium, giving you the chance to prepare foods that interest you and meet your personal dietary goals. This publication provides a synopsis of the changes you can safely make to the sugar and sodium content when preserving foods at home. It also describes the few instances where these ingredients cannot be altered because they are essential to the outcome or the safety of the product.
