The American Heart Association recommends less than 1,500 milligrams.

You can lose more than that in one hour of exercise through sweat.

If you're an athlete, if you sweat a lot, the last thing you want to be, it can be fatal, is being out of low salt diet.

Anytime you start consuming less than 3,000 milligrams of sodium, which is about one in a third teaspoon of salt, When you start consuming less than that every single day,

insulin levels will increase. All the stress hormones will increase, aldosterone, renin, angiotensin,

things that we block with medications to reduce heart attacks, strokes, and death. Those stress hormones

dramatically increase. Your arteries will also clamp down so you get more stiff arteries when you go on a low salt diet to try to preserve tissue blood flow.

That can decrease kidney function and even lead to kidney failure if you don't get enough salt.

And cognition is one of the first things that will go.

So your energy and cognition because the blood flow to your brain will go down on a low salt diet.

You won't feel like very like you can focus well.

And headaches too are increased a lot more when you're not getting enough salt.

most doctors don't really know how to be healthy because it's just not a part of their

education, right?

They're taught to diagnose.

They're very good at that.
