Sodium question
![Post Post](./styles/mcd/imageset/icon_post_target.gif)
Hi Jeff,
I've been revisiting the "Is it time to end the war on salt" topic. Thanks for all the work that you put into it - I really appreciate it.
I have a question, though...
In this response, you state: "Serum sodium...is not directly related (to) dietary sodium intake"
Yet, in this post, under this section:
(6) E- Postprandial effects of a high salt meal on serum sodium
"The aim of the study was to determine if a high salt meal containing 65 mmol Na causes a rise in sodium concentrations "
"CONCLUSIONS: A meal containing 65 mmol Na increases serum sodium"
So, is salt consumption somewhat related to serum sodium?
