Hi Terry! Sorry for my delay in responding. I have been in the process of moving out of state. I am sorry your husband has been dealing with so many health issues. Most of my recipes, Instant Pot recipes included have adaptations to decrease the level of salt and sugar. If there is a specific recipe you need help adapting, let me know 🙂
