The Effects of eating too much salt
SALT is one of the substances in seawater, after the water evaporates after heating, the salt remains as small gravel that is harvested and used as an ingredient.
If you pass through homes, all hotels, restaurants, auctions, concerts, and street roast beef you will see a high intake of salt. People add salt to food even if the food is salty
Many of them are unaware that eating salt in such a fashion is dangerous to their health. Salt is very important for the human body because it contains a compound called sodium which is essential for physical activity.
Salt contains sodium chloride, about 40 percent of which is sodium. The nervous system uses sodium for various functions, including muscle contraction, contraction of the right amount of water, and the right amount of salts in the body depending on the sodium.
The body uses sodium for controlling the amount of water in the blood, organs, and tissues of the body as it increases, then the kidneys have the function of releasing it through the urine. Although if you eat too much, then the kidneys fail to produce enough and remain in the body and various problems arise.
The health effects of salt are similar to those of high blood pressure. Blood pressure in the body depends on the presence of sodium. When sodium is high in the body, blood pressure is also high and dangerous. Excess sodium is when the person already has high blood pressure, a disease that does not show any symptoms at first.
The patient is diagnosed while receiving other treatments at the hospital. The blood volume in the circulation is one of the factors that cause the presence of blood pressure in the body.
When you eat a large amount of salt beyond your kidneys' ability to withstand excess salt in the body, due to the tendency of sodium to absorb excess water will retain more water in the body and thus blood volume will increase in circulation and thus high blood pressure.
Similarly, the sodium in salt is dependent on the heart muscle cells to increase heart rate, where the pulse is higher and thus higher blood pressure. That is why they advise patients with high blood pressure to cut down on salt in their diet, especially supplements.
Eating too much salt can lead to other heart diseases and strokes. If your blood pressure is too high it can cause your blood vessels to dilate and put you at risk of developing a buildup of fat that is technically called plaque.
This condition causes a problem in the blood vessels professionally called atherosclerosis. This problem is a condition of the arteries becoming stiff. Arteries may become narrowed and narrow, and the walls of the arteries may become stiff.
This condition causes the heart to work harder and thus puts you at risk for a sudden heart attack, heart failure, and stroke. Studies at the Harvard School of Public Health in the United States show that excessive salt intake increases 23 percent of stroke and 14 percent of heart disease.
Other problems include overheating of the heart and valve problems, as the presence of high levels of salt in the bloodstream means the heart is working overtime to bring about the proper circulation needed by the body. Salt causes other diseases such as kidney disease, inflammation of the body and dehydration, acidity in the stomach, bone loss, stimuli, and salt in the body.
ADVICE
One of the main tools to combat this problem is to change the dynamics and lifestyle by making sure we avoid eating salty foods especially to add to the table, drink plenty of water, exercise, and get regular health check-ups.
