Very miniscule amounts are in the salt. Not enough for anything.

How much salt should one use without overdoing it, in the recommended

daily amt for salt intake department?

I take 1/2 - 1 tsp as a supplement plus use it on my food liberally. It is

good for you salt. White salt is a totally different thing. Not good. I

don't know that there is a limit.

If you have salt sensitive

hypertension, sodium should be limited to about 1,500 mg/day.

I wish the reverse were true --- I have very low blood pressure

(adrenal issues) -- and even a couple of teaspoons of salt has no

effect on it.

A level teaspoon of salt has about 2300 mg sodium.

Read Dr. Brownstein's book on Salt. He uses it to " fix " hypertension.

That might work unless one

is producing excess aldosterone.

Steph,

I think it has fixed mine! Since I started taking it, I have been able

to quit taking bp meds.

I am dosing with 1/4 tsp twice daily. But am also using liberally on

food. Wondering if I should increase to 1/2 tsp... I know it's a

stupid question, but should we count the salt we use on food in our

dosage? would be hard to measure.

The low BP is probably from your adrenals and not just your thyroid,

Hypoadrenalism also causes excessive thirst. Suggest you add

licorice root (dgl) and more salt to diet and see it that helps. If

you aren't on cortisol, you might want to read up on adrenal extract,

also. Most importantly, I would find an endo that listens to you, if

there is such a thing.

Hi Sherry,

What helped me, as per Dr. Rind's instructions,

was not only water, but water and *Celtic sea salt*.

Water alone did not help me, in fact it often made me feel dizzier.

I eat the sea salt like a piece of candy, several times a day,

then take a drink of water. Real sea salt is amazing in taste too. I

love it. Be sure you get real sea salt, it is gray in color.

Hope this helps!
