[QUOTE="jddukes, post: 689354, member: 49946"] But if you need for example 4g of salt per day on a typical western diet (ie high carb) and you suddenly excrete a lot more, you therefore need more than 4g thus you are not in excess and consequently blood pressure is not a concern. I increased my salt intake on low carb diet and my BP has gone down. The point - increasing water intake will not relieve a low-sodium induced effect such as a headache. It is well explained in Volek & Phinney's book. That link I posted was to illustrate the point, I'm not sure about any of his books. [/QUOTE]
