Gut and Brain (Health)

New research points to an even stronger reason to control your salt intake as links to a high salt diet may exist with several autoimmune disorders. Like most things, the focus on salt annoys me because it’s considered standard advice for heart issues. Clinics rarely know what to do with people who are normally on a low-salt diet and so don’t look further for causes. However, for those who are eating out a lot and having many of the new fad treats with rock salt, this is something to consider. (Too little salt causes migraines, dehydration, and other serious issues, which is a large part of my objection.)
