willpeavy Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I have a familly history of high blood pressure. I used to have blood pressure that bordered on high myself. After I cut drastically back on salt my blood pressure went to a much healthier level. This story is anectdotal, but in my case it is likely there is a direct correlation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odidnetne Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 This made me laugh, in an ironic way, only because my grandfather had high blood pressure in his 20's, stopped eating salt, lost his high blood pressure, but then never had much salt ever (only what was in the food, and he eat a lot of fresh food), and he had 3 strokes.

romaxe Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 salt is good for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathryn Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 salt is good for you! Maybe naturally-occuring salts in foods, mineral salts, celtic sea salt, but most definitely not refined white salt that is very heavy on the sodium chloride and lacking in trace minerals.

Kathryn Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 sea salt lacks iodine which i have been told is good for healthy thyroid function. Seaweed is a good source of iodine. Some dulse leaves added to a salad, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9nines Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 sea salt lacks iodine which i have been told is good for healthy thyroid function. Table salt, lacks it also, until it is added to it as a supplement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
