Re: treating the adrenals with sea salt

[Guest guest]

I would be using Sea Salt, but I really don't want to

have it in water if my blood sodium lab levels don't

indicate that it's necessary.

Thanks,

, GOOD salt is very necessary for life and especially your

adrenal health. I have been taking 1-2 tsp a day of sea slat for 10

years as well as eatign it liberally on my food. My sodium levels are

normal still it does not bring them up too high as oyur body is able to

properly process sea salt as opposed to regualr salt wiht it's horrid

additives. Her is a site to read about the benefits of sea salt:

Sea salt has helped eliminate my fluid retention! I was on a totally

salt free diet years ago when I was listening to doctors, LOL, and my

legs were SO swollen I was lifting them in & out of my car with my hands

as it was to painful to lift them with their strength. I read on a

website that when you are dehydrated and LOW in sodium, your body will

hold on to all the fluid ti can in an effort to not lose any salt. Give

it salt ans it sees you have plenty and it releases the fluid. It worked

for me! When I first started sea salt my BP was 248/145.. SCARY to add

salt to a body doing that! But I was desperate and dying. Salt and

Armour have saved my life.

Val,

I'm glad to hear you say this because I know that I too am both dehydrated and

need salt. My sodium levels are always " below " reference range. However,

here's what's weird " I am never ever thirsty " and have to force myself to even

drink one glass of water each day. I don't know how this plays into things and

nobody has been able to explain it. Maybe because I'm low in salt my body

doesn't crave fluids, or maybe I'm retaining them, I just don't understand it.

Does taking whole unrefined salt such as Celtic Salt,

or Redmond Real Salt, take the place of having to

supplement with Iodoral or Lugol's?

Thanks

Let me try. I went fro over 20 years not drinking ANY water! I hated it, it even

tasted bitter to me. This was sue to my body not wanting to further dilute the

low amount of sodium it had.. More water means more dilution if the water/salt

ratio. SO it retains what fluid it has, to not LOSE any salt, but makes you

dislike water to keep you from diluting the low sodium in the cells. The

fluid/salt balance intracellularly is of the utmost importance as this balance

called electrolyte balance is what makes the communications between the cells in

your body possible. When this balance is not correct, your cells cannot get rid

of waste materials or toxins and they build up there causing destruction within

the cells. Now that I have been taking sea salt for a long time I crave water! I

drink alot every day and it tastes wonderful. If my water starts tasting bitter

or bad to me I add sea salt to it and guzzle it down and that ends the problem.

Hi, I started 1/2 teaspoon sea salt in OJ twice a day.I was able to

stop taking my water pill and have lost a couple of pounds.I read

that for your potassium and sodium to be balanced you need real salt

also that hypos hold water at a cellular level. This could help a lot

of people that can't lose weight, alot of that weight could be

celular water weight.It's helped me.LOL

that I am craving the mildly salty flavor and wanting to drink more

water, which is a good thing as I have kidney disease, and need to

drink LOTS of water, lol. I also find that I am retaining much less

fluid than I used to, yeah! So I will keep it up - I must be needing

it.

I was glad to find out how beneficial salt and vitamin c are for

hypothyroid and adrenal insufficiency. I am treating my Lyme disease

with a salt and vitamin C protocol. I take currently 9 grams of each

daily and am about to increase to 12 grams. I have a lot of

allergies, and take Allergy Research Group's " Pure Vitamin C " from

Cassava Root. It is the only type of vitamin C I can tolerate.

I surmise I am at stage six or seven of adrenal insufficiency

because I am low in cortisol and DHEA, due to a life time of major

stressors both physically and emotioinally. I am mostly self-

treating my conditions, and have an extensive lay background in

alternative medicine.

For the adrenals and thyroid, I am taking both a small dose of HC

together with Isocort, Iodoral, Homeopathy, and an herbal protocol.

I am trying to keep my combined cortisone supplementation of HC and

Isocort at 5 mg - so that my body can continue to effectively deal

with the Lyme and co-infections that I have.

The salt and vitamin C are really potent antimicrobials, which is

wonderful - because probably all of us have some type of infection

going on contributing to the compromise of the endocrine system.

I enjoy reading the posts and learning from all of you!

Blessings,

Jnanda
