Salt

[Deb]

I had to chuckle at this....after adding ReMag and himalayan salt to my diet and watching my blood pressure decrease. What takes them so long???

Cutting salt from your diet may not be the answer to lower blood pressure, a study has found.
The NHS advice is for adults to eat no more than six grams of salt a day – the equivalent of 2.4 grams of sodium.
But a study by Boston University found people consuming less salt than this actually had higher blood pressure, prompting a call for the guidance to be changed.
Researchers say the advice to eat less salt is too simple and ignores the fact that salt can raise hormone levels in the body which regulate and keep blood pressure low.

The problem seems to lie in the medical approach to good diet practices — they apparently think that they have to get everything backwards at first and then they take decades to correct the mistake.

Thanks,
