Thanks for the info, when I placed it in the air fryer all I used was the cornmeal. It was good just like that. I didn't use any seasoning. I have limited my salt intake to 1500mg daily on other meals. I Love turkey wings. I'm trying to do what's best for Me. I will check with my Cardiologist regarding the preferrable limit of sodium. I'm still acquiring knowledge. Have a Wonderful Evening! ๐Ÿ˜Š

While air frying is a healthier cooking method compared to deep frying, it's still important to be mindful of portion sizes and frequency when eating fried foods with heart disease. Air frying does reduce the amount of added fats compared to traditional frying methods, which is beneficial for heart health.

The key is to ensure you're using heart-healthy oils (like olive oil) in minimal amounts when air frying. Consider alternating between different cooking methods throughout the week, such as steaming, boiling, or baking your fish to add variety while maintaining heart health. When preparing fish, remember to watch your sodium intake. Request guidance from your cardiologist or dietitian about the ideal frequency for including air-fried fish in your meal plan, as they can make recommendations based on your specific health condition and treatment plan. They may also suggest appropriate portion sizes and seasonings that align with your dietary needs.
