Guest guest Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 Hi Bee and group, I was just reading the oral baking soda post, and I noticed that salt, including ocean sea salt, is the first thing to avoid due to its diuretic effect. I have noticed that after I have salt I pee very frequently. Shouldn't we avoid it then? Thank you, kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should not have a lot at one time, but it has many more functions in the body whether it makes you pee more or not. Baking soda is all sodium, so it doesn't contain chloride at all, so taking ocean sea salt too makes the sodium rise without the proper balance of chloride, and that's why no salt or ocean sea salt is taken with high amounts of baking soda. If taking ocean sea salt were a problem then people on this program wouldn't have been getting healthier, and I'd be sick too. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
