What Can Happen If Your Body Gets To Much Salt?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The problem of too much sodium (salt) cannot be overstated. If the body becomes over supplied with sodium, the body excretes more sodium. If the kidneys cannot secrete it, it causes the vascular system to constrict, then the body dilutes the extra cellular sodium in the body by increasing the fluid volume in the body. Thus, you get fluid retention. The sodium found in salt may also be detrimental to your bones.
