I used to work in a hospital and we had a lot of older patients come in for change in level of consciousness due to hyponatremia. Basically, not enough salt because their doctor told them to cut down on their salt intake. You need a certain level of salt in you body for proper brain function. Some older people will go overboard with doctor's instructions.

@lana11111 3 года назад

Also if you have low blood pressure, pinch of salt and little warm water will help to bring it up. Not all the time just in bad situations.

@HHY-J316 2 года назад

I am not surprised those older people went overboard. A 50+year old teacher I had in a nutrition class in college said she would not add any salt in her family's diet because she could get sodium in natural food. There were many other ridiculous things she talked about such as we should only drink fat free milk, coconut and avocado were bad because of their high saturated fat and calories.she also promoted drinking juice. I hated her class and that was one of the classes I got lowest grade besides political science because I didn't agree what she taught.

My late father used to liberally cover his regular roast dinners in salt then he would put a mound of salt on the side of his plate that he would dip a fork full of meat into it for good measure before consuming it. He lived to 90 years of age and was in pretty good shape and it was only ignoring a squamous cell cancer on his neck that finished him off.

I got so sick because I did not eat enough salt - I could not walk up the stairs and had cramps in my hands and legs. I ended up in hospital with a racing heart rate, they did tests and could not find anything wrong with my heart, they did however find that I had low sodium. After increasing my salt I started to feel so much better. The amount of people I have met who have become ill from reducing their salt intake is astounding.

@@achicha , try a search for "FDA salt" and you'll see what the government in the United States is saying right now. They've been saying pretty much the same thing for decades. "It has always been for those high blood pressure runs in their families...." because those same families are eating the same foods that cause insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, just like the doctor pointed out in this video (did you even watch it?). What the parents eat, so do the children, and then the grandchildren, and so on. Sugar, refined starches, and GMO seed oils, are all very bad for blood pressure when consumed for years and years. This wasn't the same food your ancestors ate before the 20th Century (before 1900 AD).

i never understood why the recommendation is to eat so little salt .. it would be dangerously low if we would reduce it to such an insane level .. in the time before friges .. people used salt to preserve food .. in such high rates .. if salt would be just HALF as dangerous as we're told the vast majority of the people would have died from overdosing ..

We are returning to salt preservation (lacto ferment) as it's very easy and very probiotic. Especially the KETO followers. I'm preserving multiple vegetables inc. fine sliced cabbage (sauerkraut, with grated carrot and chilli pepper), carrot rounds (with grated ginger), cauliflower (with chopped onion and garlic) and others, and also making kefir and kombucha. They're all very tasty, love them. I even drink the left over juice from the vegetable preserves when they're finished - it's very tasty indeed, delightfully salty. The lacto ferment removes most of the sugars from the food, there by rendering them very KETO compatible. So you can have as much carrot as you want if it's lacto fermented, as one example. With Kefir, it turns what is essentially a baby food, into an adult food - it's safe to all but live on Kefir (some people do apparently). Kefir is like a drinkable super natural yogurt. I flavor it with vanilla and a little coconut essence.

It was explained to me that because there is so much sodium in processed and canned foods that we were getting exceedingly much more than needed mostly hidden in these foods that was the culprit and the easiest way to control that was to restrict table salt intake. If u ever notice how much sodium is in canned foods or even frozen, it is appalling. My dr. said we only need about 2,300 mg per day. I did not notice Dr. Stan say anything about the body's minimum requirements for salt.

@ewakraft5770 4 года назад

Nice, not all himalaya salt is the same anymore this days. I resently bought one that is more white and some darker pink chunks in it. It tastes more agressive like the cheap table salt and not like the usual himalaya salt. Im shure there mixed it. U do it the right way!

Our Chinese grandparents preserved and ate dried salted fish and salted Chinese vegetables all year here in Saskatchewan, Canada and they both lived well into their mid 80s and early 90s without any major health problems. A well balanced diet and daily exercise is both mentally and physically is of key importance after 55. Drinking a lot of fluid is also highly important to keep the kidneys clean and well flushed (to prevent kidney stones).

More than 20 years ago I read an article in Science regarding salt and BP especially. It was a debate between the "pros" and "cons" of salt in regard to BP. After all was said and done what came out was that it all depends on the individual. Some peoples' genetics make it so it can tolerate higher levels of salt than others'. But after more than 20 years the debate still goes on.

@hollygreenhalgh5181 2 года назад

Thank you, Dr. Ekberg!! I have been on an interesting journey this past year with reducing my salt intake due to blood pressure issues and unexplained migraines. I slowly reduced all sodium to 'see what would happen', and my results have led me to a new BP averaging 120/80 - 117/70 and zero migraines. However, I have been concerned with the low salt intake and hyponatremia possibilities because what I have discovered is that if I consume more than 300 mg of sodium, the migraines return, and below that number, I feel healthy, but that's a very low salt consumption. This is problematic in one stance due to the hidden amounts of sodium in our food supply, not even counting canned, boxed, and processed foods. For instance; raw chicken breast and most meats have a brine or sodium content between 45 mg - 180 mg per 4 oz; 1 egg contains around 70 mg; some root vegetables contain natural sodium due to their iodine content. For most people that's not a big deal. So if I want to eat, I have to make it. Luckily I have a culinary background. With my 300 mg limit of sodium intake, I discovered through rigorous experiments with my diet, all the above foods add up the sodium pretty quickly in a day. I must also only consume these foods in a timely manner and not all at once, because, unlike glucose, I can't correct it quickly. Other hidden sodium compounds also exist in our mouthwash and toothpaste, and I just discovered that one last week. I look forward to listening to your other videos, thank you again!!

Yikes!!! After watching this video, I pulled up my last blood labs from December 2020 to see my EGFR number. It was 65.2! Apparently I have Stage 2 kidney disease. I've not been able to sleep for days now, worrying about this low number. I go back to the doctor in September. I'm anxious to see my new blood work numbers and ask my doctor what is going on. Creatinine (0.9) and potassium (3.9) are normal though. I've never been overweight, and I do not have diabetes. I do have high blood pressure controled by meds, and cholesterol is a little high according to American standards. I never heard of EGRF until this video; SO happy to be learning how to look after my own health. Thank you Dr. Ekbeg!

@j7ndominica051 3 года назад

Long time ago people consumed salted preserves and apparently were doing well. Fine table salt is better for even dispersion in cold meals (salad, tomato juice) and stainless steel cookware, which can get corroded by chlorine if undissolved crystals rest on the bottom for prolonged period of time. This fault of modern food grade stainless steel is found across brands; they now make it softer than spoons or old bowls. Unrefined rock and pakistani salt also contains insoluble sand-like minerals, which are unlikely available to the body (unless they react with the stomach acid somehow).

This is the kind of advice I’ve always followed. A few months ago my doctor told me my blood pressure is life threatening, a lot higher than 140/90, medication is not working, something has to change. I’ve lost the weight, see a nutritionist, and workout with a trainer 3 times a week. What’s that leave? Salt. He told me 1500 mg of salt per day. It worked. 121/72 is my typical reading now. I’m happy other people can eat a lot of salt because it really enhances taste, I just can’t.

Sodium is lost in sweat as well. I have heard that other essential minerals are lost too when we eat more salt and drink more water. The pink salt, presumably scraped off mineral-rich rocks could carry harmful heavy metals as well?

I'm not the brightest mind but intelligent enough to cope and strange/dumb enough to live healthy against the mainstream. My strong suit when I was younger (until ca 35 ) was I loved exercising, not sports more like constant moving in daily life. Even though I made many mistakes due to lack of education it kept me healthy above average. When I slightly felt age kick in I listened to and read up on health advice like No salt and lots of electrolytes, no acidity, no fats etc. My life deteriorated extremely far above the normal aging process. I even got a kidney stone because of it. Now I never do what others pretend to 'know' so well and live either average or what I have researched myself ( of course with the input by many, but processed by myself). One of the big mistakes I fell prey to by the 'experts' when I still believed those in the medical profession were indeed experts, was no salt, no fats. That is just an example of how screwed our health advice is.
