Low salt diet - how do you know when you've lowered intake enough?!


Question:
Answers:
Is lowering salt intake because of hypertension, congestive heart failure? I can think of a couple of possible ways to know that lowering your salt intake is helpful or enough. Blood & urine tests to check to see if your chemistries are better or normal and blood pressures that are normal.or at least closer to normal on a regular basis. Are you retaining fluids (swollen ankles)? I don't know how your normal salt intake affected you, but the reversal of your negative symptoms can indicate that lowing your salt intake is helping.
