Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 A question you may want to ask yourself is with your whole/unrefined salt usage and showing high levels of sodium in your bloodwork, how much non-caffienated fluids are you drinking EVERY DAY?

Thanks for that Linn. Very interesting. So do you think that even with over the range sodium levels that I should be doing more than sprinkling Celtic seasalt on my food at table and in the cooking? I am wondering if it could possibly do me any harm. Not the seasalt but if it drives my sodium levels up further. I suppose that thought has been a strumbling block for me in taking more than I already am, though I am sprinkling with gusto it must be said and enjoying it very much indeed. Yum!

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Mo, Read up on the info on the link and see what you think. There's a ton of info there. This info also correlates with what Dr. Tim O'Shea writes about high blood pressure and medications used to treat it. Docs give diuretics when the opposite is needed. I think your sodium levels could be related to other things that you are eating. Look at labels and write it down for a few days how much sodium you're taking in. FitDay.com is a great resource for tracking your diet and will show you all kinds of good info on your food intake. The sodium in processed table salt and what's in processed food items is not good for us. Also check any supplements, protein powders, etc. Maybe do a google search on any of the supplements or meds or ingredients in them that you are taking to see how those react to sodium. It could be that something else is affecting the sodium level in your body.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 The last time I was at my Dr.'s I told them I was doing Sea Salt and I found out the whole office was on it. Some bought water with it all ready in it. Phil wrote: >>I was eating salt-free for 20 years when this high sodium test came in,<< And this is likely part fo the problem. I bet your body is hoarding salt due to the " salt shortage " it perceives. This was why I was retaining fluid and my BP went up, a no salt diet that almost killed me. And I was onyl on it for four years. The unrelenting high BP was the worst sign something was very wrong. When my doctors of the moment took me off all salt is when it went from high blood pressure to a stroke looking for a place to happen. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store (Closing after Xmas!!!) http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ --------------------------------- Have a burning question?
