        Salt? unhealthy? Ridiculous, so long as you don't go practically DUMPING it in your dishes, your fine. I've always had what I consider to be an average amount of salt intake and I've always had peachy blood pressure.

This pump needs all three factors to function, and if we add more K (potassium) it would replace the Sodium more vigorously, and burn energy in the process.
          I thought K+ is in the cells while Na+ is in the blood?

            Beware low-cal salad dressing. The salt content will kill you.

                Bah. I'm just going to control high blood pressure by gradually dropping weight. Probably far easier to do that than to sit here and actively measure the sodium content of everything I eat, thereby driving me nuts, thereby causing my blood pressure to go up.

                And, Imran, go eat some spinach!

                    Too much can apparently cause your blood pressure to rise, increasing the risk of long-term damage to your organs and circulatory system.

                    I figure life's out to kill you the moment you're born.

                      Sodium is necessary in small quantities, harmful in large quantities and deadly in ridiculous quantities.

                          No, it's just that modern society we can't handle.

                            Don't ever eat anything from a can, ever again They stuff in so much salt its ridiculous..

                            a can of Baked Beans has at least a tablespoon added.

                              Yep. One can of bean and bacon soup contains 90 percent (or so) of your optimal sodium intake for an entire 24-hour period.
