Sodium
Sodium is key for nerve and muscle function and helps control blood pressure and fluid balance. It's essential for maintaining the balance of fluids in our body. Sodium is found in salt, processed foods, and many common snacks. It's important for hydration and nerve signals. Too much sodium can lead to health issues like high blood pressure. ...
Who would benefit from testing their sodium levels?
Testing for sodium levels is beneficial for individuals with conditions affecting fluid balance, such as heart failure, kidney disease, or liver cirrhosis. People with high blood pressure or those on diuretics, which can alter sodium levels, also benefit from testing. Additionally, individuals experiencing symptoms of sodium imbalance, like persistent nausea, headaches, confusion, or extreme fatigue, should have their sodium levels checked.
What are symptoms of low and high sodium?
What foods are high in sodium?
Foods high in sodium typically include processed and packaged foods like deli meats, canned soups, and fast food. Snack items such as chips, pretzels, and salted nuts also contain high levels of sodium. Many condiments, like soy sauce, ketchup, and salad dressings, are rich in sodium as well. Ready-to-eat meals and frozen dinners often have added sodium for preservation and flavor. Cheese and bread can also contribute to sodium intake. To manage sodium levels, it’s advisable to check food labels and opt for fresh, unprocessed foods when possible.
What is the nutritional benefit of sodium?
Sodium is essential for maintaining fluid balance, aiding nerve function and muscle contractions, and regulating blood pressure. It also helps in the absorption of other nutrients like glucose and amino acids. While crucial for health, especially during activities like exercise, it’s important to consume sodium in moderation, as excessive intake can lead to high blood pressure and heart issues.
