Guest Quik Report post Posted May 7, 2005 So I decided I need to stop taking in so much sodium. I salt the shit out of everything. I've always done that, and since I'm a smoker I think the dying tastebuds just add to the need. It's not like I'm fat or anything, though. I just think it's bad that I throw like 4 tablespoons of salt on my mashed potatos. Should this be an issue for me at 19 years old? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mik 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2005 35% of individuals are not salt sensitive. They can eat as much salt as they want with no taxing of the kidneys or no increased risk of hypertension. I'd find out if salt is actually increasing your risk of disease before cutting it from your diet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jericholic82 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2005 My dad's family (and him) have a history of hypertension and high BP and diabetes so I better watch it. In fact I even take a pill for a high pulse rate (however my BP and Cholest. and sugar is great, my doc says it's the best numbers he has ever seen) . I lately have been trying to not eat too much salt and sugar. I have done well, losing almost 40 pounds in 8 months. frickin ramen has like 1000 or more mg of sodium a serving. especially those instant lunch soups in stryrofoam cups.
