Adequate
body sodium content is necessary for maintenance of blood volume, renal perfusion and many other physiological functions, and these variables are strongly defended by the body.

Unrefined sea salt helps to regulate blood sugar, water
content in our
body and pH levels, help reduce high blood pressure, and actually contains less
sodium than table salt.
A novel technique to use the
body's natural
sodium (salt)
content to provide a more detailed picture of tissue health and disease is to be pioneered by MRI experts at The University of Nottingham.
Unsalted pistachios have a high - potassium low -
sodium content which helps to normalize blood pressure, maintain water balance in the
body and strengthen muscles.

Notably, it can be used to help lower blood pressure thanks to its high
content of diuretic tannins, which flush excess of

content, strawberries are recommended to those with high blood pressure to help negate the effects of
sodium in the
body.
Proper electrolyte balance is achieved by maintaining a relatively high potassium
content inside the cell and a high
sodium concentration in the fluid outside the cell (extracellular fluid): Though potassium and
sodium are the two major electrolytes found in the human
body, many other elements are required for normal physiological function.
High in essential Minerals:
Sodium Chloride, Sulphate, Magnesium, Calcium, Potassium, and Bicarbonate, which combine to help create an excellent electrolyte balance, improve circulation, prevent muscle cramping, increase hydration, regulate cells water
content, aids metabolism, nutrient absorption, balance the
body's natural pH levels, and provide a wider range of natural nutrients.
One measured fluid, electrolyte, and renal indices of hydration over eleven days of caffeine consumption in human subjects, finding that doses of up to 6 mg caffeine per kilogram of
body weight had no effect on
body mass, urine osmolality (urine concentration), urine specific gravity (concentration of excreted materials in urine), urine color, urine volume,
sodium excretion, potassium secretion, creatinine
content, blood urea nitrogen (forms when protein breaks down), and serum levels of
sodium and potassium.
