Consider Richard Ingraham the kitchen point guard for 12-time NBA All-Star Dwyane Wade and his wife, actress Gabrielle Union. In his book Eating Well to Win: Inspired Living Through Inspired Cooking, Ingraham shares how he keeps the A-list couple healthy and satisfied with a simple ingredient adjustment that will work for anyone—swapping salt for chicken broth. This change will help sustain flavor and reduce sodium intake.

“People often complain about healthy food not having much flavor,” Ingraham says. “By utilizing broths, you add flavor and cut down on the amount of salt that’s needed to enhance the flavor of your dish on the back end.”
