Re: Re: Craving... don't laugh

I have read other papers on salt and it's benefits! It seems like the

doctors were out to do me in. They had me cut all salt out of my diet AND I

was on potassium sparing diuretics! The combo was creating such an imbalance

that my muscles were not functioning properly. I was also retaining fluids

because my body was low in sodium. Often what we are told one year is found

to be untrue the next... and that is scary as they always claim it is

absolute fact!

I'm back into eating salt too again. But watching the amount & using " no salt "

or " low sodium salt " or " sea salt " . Still can't do without it tho. My body

craves it sometimes. I don't think it's bad to satisfy the cravings long as I

don't go overboard.

Since starting the hydrocortisone I am " addicted " to Lay's Original Kettle

Chips - just in the last week has the addiction abated. I mean addicted -

like sometimes 10 oz a day addicted.

Get some Sea Salt! Most the grocery stores (larger ones) carry it now, and

it is better for you than eating chips! Don;t go overboard with it, but

start making it a point to use it on most foods you would normally add salt

to. I have almost stopped my salt cravings by doing this, and I haven't had

a muscle cramp in months now.

I use sea salt too. Stopped eating the Lay's chips I used to love so much.

Haven't craved them anymore much either. Glad of that.

Come to think of it, I haven't had my usual muscle spasms either for about two

months. Could be the other supplements I'm on tho too. The chiropractor told me

to take my calcium/magnesium/phosphorous/

Vitamin D liquid at night on an empty stomach before bedtime to stop those.

That's been working wonderfully well for most of the whole body muscle spasms &

pain.

I also added a Coral Calcium/vitamin formula during the day which I also think

is helping bunches. Still have the carpal tunnel hands/finger aches/pains tho

which may also be scleroderma I have elsewhere. That hasn't gone away at all.

Still just as bad as ever. So is my low back pain which I doubt even the Armour

or Time-Caps thyroid will help much. But we'll see it will address the

connective tissue disorder pains too.
