The more your heart and kidneys age, the harder it is for them to take large amounts of sodium. If you eat chips and dip in the evening and the next day your fingers and feet seems a little "tight",don't worry if it goes away after a couple of hours. Just limit your treat to once in a while. If the swelling lasts longer, a trip to the doctor is in order to have your blood pressure and kidney function evaluated.

drink less water !!!

have beer with your chips instead :)

all the best
