It is interesting you bring this up, because I actually had to add salt to my diet, after getting chronically dehydrated.
Studies do show an optimum intake appears to be from 2,800 mg of sodium a day to over 6,000 mg, but I also know many people already have compromised bodies and actually can’t afford the higher blood pressure their bodies will produce with that amount of sodium.
I will look into that book. Thanks!
I developed HBP a few years ago. The medication I was on didn’t work, as my BP would fall extremely low after being way too high. The cardiologist asked me if I watch my salt intake, and I told him I didn’t but I’m not one to eat or add salt to food as I don’t like the taste. ( exception is potatoes which I rarely eat) So he put me on a diuretic and I have fewer BP problems that I know of, I don’t check it all the time.
