Dont be gullible. dont be fooled. Don't let other people's ignorance bring you down. read and share. Knowledge is power. 7 Health Risks of Eating Too Much Salt. Too much salt in the diet, which is marked by high sodium content, can deeply impact almost all biochemical pathways in your body. As a standard, your dietary intake of sodium should not exceed 2,000 milligrams per day. Any excess of this amount can inhibit the proper absorption of nutrients and disrupt normal body functions. The following are seven dangerous health consequences of eating too many salty foods. 1. Hypertension The number one medical consequence of high salt intake is hypertension. High intake of salt causes water retention and promotes abnormal influx of water molecules into your blood vessels. This action instantaneously increases your blood volume and blood pressure. Sudden rises of blood pressure can trigger life threatening cardiovascular emergencies like strokes and heart attacks. Reducing your sodium intake through diet can lower your blood pressure by as much as 25%. 2. Abnormal Heart Development A habit of eating salty food can also heighten your risk of non-blood pressure related heart diseases. Having higher than normal blood volume means that your heart has to work much harder to provide proper circulation. Over time, your heart can become abnormally large and your heart valves can become thinner. An enlarged heart is significantly weaker and can lead to symptoms like chest pains, breathlessness and chronic fatigue. Fatal cases like sudden cardiac arrest and heart failure can also occur. 3. Osteoporosis Sodium inhibits your body’s absorption and utilization of calcium, leading to a loss of bone mass and increased porousness of your bones. Women after menopause, diabetics and elderly people who are already at high risk of osteoporosis should be especially careful about salt intake. Having a high salt diet can drastically heighten your chances for fractures and other skeletal deformations. 4. Kidney Disorders Excess calcium and sodium that are not used by your body goes into your urine. This can increase the filtration load of your kidneys and increase the likelihood of crystal formation. Elevated blood pressure and blood volume are also extremely damaging to your kidneys. 5. Dehydration and Swelling Feeling thirsty is a direct response after having salty food. This happens because excessive sodium in your blood draws water out of your cells and into your tissues. Dehydrated cells signal your brain for water. Having fluid filled tissue makes you look bloated and swollen, and these symptoms are especially severe in the lower parts of your body. Reducing your salt intake is an effective way of preventing swollen feet, ankles and calves. 6. Digestive Diseases Sodium regulates the acid-base balance of blood and body fluids. Too much salt can trigger acid reflux and cause heart burn and long-term damage to your upper digestive tract. Studies have shown that habitual intake of salty foods is a strong risk factor for duodenal and gastric ulcers and cancers. 7. Electrolyte and Hormone Imbalance Excessive sodium can impact both your electrolyte and hormone balance. Too much sodium can severely hinder the conduction of nerve impulses and induce symptoms like dizziness, muscle cramps and shakiness. You can also have impaired sensory response, feel disoriented or develop other depressive symptoms. 18 Likes |

[b]The Normal salt we use at home is dehydrated, not for detoxification... When you bath with salt, you become more prone to infections.. There is strong evidence that links our current high salt intake to high blood pressure. High blood pressure is the main cause of strokes and a major cause of heart attacks and heart failures, the most common causes of death and illness in the world. It is also widely recognized that a high salt diet is linked to other conditions, such as osteoporosis, cancer of the stomach, kidney disease, kidney stones, obesity and exacerbating the symptoms of asthma, Meniere’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease, hypertension, cardiovascular and Diabetes. I'm not saying you should not do it but be careful what you waste your time on, especially my 'supposed educated friends and colleagues' who are still spreading the Salt broadcast. This is how to protect yourselves from Ebola: (1) Wash Your Hands With SOAP not Salt, do this a lot . (2) Use a Good Sanitizer. (3) Avoid Unnecessary Contact (4) No Bush Meat & Suya. ( Bush meat 'MAY' be carrying the virus, same as Suya) (5) Disinfect your surrounding: The virus cannot survive disinfectants, heat, direct sunlight, detergents and soaps. (6) Fumigate your surrounding, rodents can be carrier of Ebola. And YES!...Am a christian and am not disputing the essence of spirituality but please let's be wise, stop spreading lies to people especially if u run a media channel.[/b] 10 Likes

I am happy the moderators eventually pulled down the threads that were promoting salt water intake even though it took them a very long time to do so. Moderators have a duty to pull down such threads that disseminate false and very dangerous information, and their response despite several reports is often too slow. |
