  This is crazy. Systems thinking is needed. Electrolytes work as a group. Magnesium antagonises Calcium. Potassium antagonises Sodium. But only with enough magnesium around can potassium function as required. Sodium should not be looked at in isolation as it is the relationships between all four that is needed. The Framington Study clearly indicates it is not low sodium but rather high magnesium and potassium needed for heart health.

  My mom used the salt shaker on salty food. &nbsp;She never had a blood pressure above 120/75. &nbsp;It was more like 112/60 on a regular basis. &nbsp; She passed at age 94 from multiple myeloma with no heart or blood pressure problems. &nbsp;Unfortunately, her doctor put her on a low salt diet and she spent her last years not enjoying her food.

  In that Chinese salt substitute study, I wonder how much the improvement comes from the sodium reduction and how much comes from the potassium increase.

  You forgot that the most important factor in blood pressure is carbohydrates which cause insulin resistance, the condition which makes people sensitive to sodium.

  Just wanted to let you know that I started doing your daily arugula and found that it had the same effect as the beet juice. My blood pressure has been on an average of 110/62. I also keep an eye on my sodium intake so this info today was really great to hear. Thank you!

  to salt or not to salt! I am on anti hypertension meds but my nephrologist still advised me to moderately increase my salt intake to improve my well being, particularly to improve water retention. adhering to my nephrologist advise, I feel more energize, less brain fog occurrence &amp; somehow feel my heart being stronger. so each person is really different.

  Interesting that process ed food is usually poor in potassium.

  Sounds more like we need a mineral balance (just like with omega fatty acids) as a base guideline and not demonization of one or the other

  I saw on another channel that &quot;Sodium (salt) significantly improves creatine absorption by acting as an electrolyte that aids transport into muscle cells, boosting uptake and hydration. Sodium chloride or specialized salt forms can increase bioavailability, with some studies indicating sodium elevates brain creatine uptake by 47%.&quot; &nbsp;<br><br>and<br><br>&quot;Carbohydrates trigger an insulin spike, which helps transport more creatine into muscle cells. Consuming 50-100g of fast-acting carbohydrates with creatine can boost retention, particularly in the early stages, notes the National Institutes of Health.&quot; <br><br>So for the first time in a LONG time I ate a rice bowl with veggies and soy sauce. I was in the middle of sprinkling the salty soy sauce on it as I was watching this video on how the lower the better when it comes to salt. FFS

  I think it was a year or two ago that a mother was with her family on a hot day, I think playing tennis, or it may have been running, and when she got home she drank a large amount of water to hydrate and passed out. She died because the sweating and large intake of water reduced her sodium level to the point that she died before she could get medical help. &nbsp;Fraternity hazings forcing people to drink large amounts of water have resulted in deaths.
