There is alot more to this than this guy knows. Maybe he does but I did not watch the whole thing. I did decades of research on health issues with a ficus on minerals. Sodium is a mineral and I am pretty much sure I know more than he on the subject.
The first thing you have to do is realize that the salt in the shaker on your kitchen table is vastly different than the salt in the old days. Some of us may remember the olders putting rice or something else in the salt shaker to keep the salt from clumping up. It used to clump up, especially in the summer. If set too long you actually could see water in the bottom of the salt shaker.
Morton and the other companies who sold this table salt figured out how to fix that, with a chemical. Aluminum something or other, it is a dessicant. It absorbs the moisture. It also inhibits the sat from absorbing the moisture from the air, AND YOUR BODY.
Now get this, high blood pressure can be CAUSED by a sodium deficiency. That means that there is a possibility that that even though you eat plenty of salt, you could have a sodium deficiency and that could cause your high BP.
It took me fucking years to find this shit out and what I get into next will probably really blow your mind, but you are welcome to check it out and verify.
The companies that sell you the table salt make more money off of what they "refine" out of it than they make from you. those minerals are sold to some chemical companies as well as companies that make dietary supplements for cattle. See when the cattle graze and do not get what they need they start eating the fence or whatever, it is called cribbing. In the old days the farmers knew to get them a salt lick, and that salt was unrefined.
The name salt is derived from "salarum" which is the same derivative of "salary".
When Man became non-nomadic, the land got played out. Unrefined salt contains the minerals we need to live, but if we keep farming the same land again and again it does not. Salary is how you lived. You NEEDED it. Salt was actually money.
I use unrefined sea salt. It is coarse, like rock salt, and there are some rocks in it but not many. It cost me alot more than table salt and similar salt today costs $20 a pound and up. It tastes different, it is not as strong salty wise but if you put too much, well it is like a fine line.
But it contains all 24 minerals defined by the USDA as essential. And you know these assholes don't even put all of them in baby formula. You know what the best fed animal on this planet is ? A lab rat. The reason for that is because when they give them carcinogens or something to cause them to get a disease, they need to be SURE, 100 % that it is not because of a mineral deficiency.
Anyone wants to dispute all this, get evidence to the contrary, I KNOW you can't.
I know WTF I am talking about here and probably more than your doctor, cardiologist, whatever. I spent a long time researching this and I am confident in my knowledge, to the point where even if the US surgeon general refuted me I would believe me, not him. Too much fits together, and with them, too much does not.
And if someone does get a bug up their ass and wants to refute me, any studies or whatever you cite, I need a complete list of whatever all of the people involved ate every day for the last two years. (trying to get that will show you just why we can't cure everything)
And when someone mentions it, sugar. that is just as bad a poison, and HFCS is worse and we are stuck with it because we fucked with South America too much and then there is aspartame that makes your body acidic.
And people are so stupid they think eating fat makes you fat. It does not, eating carbs makes you fat. When you eat fat, for the most part you shit it out. When you eat carbs your body thinks you need to store it to hibernate for the winter or whatever. Plus there are essential nutrients that are fat soluble, not water soluble.
Most of my information came from other countries. Places where the doctors do not get rich when you get sick, instead they have a heavier workload.
Think about that.

You lost me here:"I did decades of research on health issues with a ficus on minerals. Sodium is a mineral and I am pretty much sure I know more than he on the subject. "
Sodium is not a mineral. It's an elemental metal. A corrosive metal. Sodium choride, aka "salt", is a mineral.
You grew a ficus on minerals? Is that sort of like hydroponic farming?

"Sodium is not a mineral"
So is it an animal or vegetable ?
...but you already knew that. And yeah, little faux pas like calling sodium a mineral or crude language do little to lend credibility to the OP's generally contrarian assertions even if based on decades of research.
Definition #5 of mineral from dictionary.com
"5.
Nutrition. any of the inorganic elements, as calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, or sodium, that are essential to the functioning of the human body and are obtained from foods." These metals are commonly referred to as minerals and I don't see this as a JURB faux pas. It's much of everything else he said in his ridiculous diatribe that is substantially or completely incorrect, depending of how one would define this level of incorrectness. T456

...I remain suspicious of JURB 's claims.
Regardless of "dictionary.com", sodium is not a mineral, it is a corrosive elemental metal. The fact that we need sodium in order to function is another topic.
We do not ingest sodium in its elemental form, we ingest it as a component of a mineral. This is clear.
:)
I'm done.
Maybe I'll just delete all my text and let this rest, forever. I know nothing.
...but every field of specialization has its jargon or lexicon. I find this specific usage imprecise and wouldn't use it in the scholarly literature for that reason. But who am I to judge? Oops, I guess I just did.
Yeah, it's kinda like "recording engineer" even when the person has no science or engineering degree or even a modicum of engineering education. It's a slang and incorrect usage of the term.
Sodium is NOT a mineral, even if some people wish to loosely call it one. Nutritionists are actually referring to it within the context of it being a part of a mineral composition, such as salt. As long as everyone in the conversation and the audience understand that, I suppose that's ok. But when a person who professes to have "researched" a topic comes along and says flat out "sodium is a mineral", their believability goes right out the window.
I don't put much stock in downstream "definitions" (in this case, definition #5) with online "dictionaries" except as casual usage. I much prefer hardcore dictionaries such as Britannica and Webster. While they both have online versions, and that's good, there are other "me too" online dictionaries which tend toward too much "fluff".
:)
...Sodium (Na) is an element, sodium chloride ("salt", NaCl) is a compound and maybe a "mineral", halite is a mineral.
Still, I like being called an audio "engineer". It gives me a little respect.
:)
"...I remain suspicious of JURB's claims. "
By all means, question EVERYTHING.
For good reason.

:)Yeah, it's pretty hard to put much stock into what someone writes when they can't even spit out a sentence without multiple pertinent mistakes.
Anyway, it'd be nice if he'd include four or five references from his "decades of research".
:)
