My thanks to a loyal reader who pointed me to an article from the Washington Post that notes that, contrary to the views of the single issue obsessives, low levels of salt intake may be dangerous:
"according to studies published in recent years by pillars of the medical community, the low levels of salt recommended by the government may actually be dangerous.
“There is no longer any valid basis for the current salt guidelines,” said Andrew Mente, a professor at McMaster University in Ontario, who was one of the researchers involved in a major study published last year by the New England Journal of Medicine.“So why are we still scaring people about salt?”
As I have noted many times before, healthy well hydrated people excrete excess salt via their kidneys and sweat.
