RE: I know my blood level.

Posted by tweaker456 on June 10, 2021 at 18:58:56:

"The reference range for serum sodium is 135-147 mmol/L" As far as I know, and the below study shows it as such, dietary sodium has very little effect on the measurement of plasma sodium. NA appears to be pretty tightly regulated, by the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system as far as I can tell. At the present time I have drastically decreased my NA dietary intake from levels very likely to be way lower than US average with obvious positive results. I have read that there are a number of shall we say tribal people who live on like 200-700mg sodium a day without a problem from low NA. So, to sum up, it's low NA intake that is needed, not low plasma levels. Tweaker456
