Improper sodium and potassium balance

Because sodium is regulated by your body’s “master chemists,” helping you control fluid balance, people should be aware of their salt intake. But it’s not just that. Keeping a good balance between your sodium and potassium intake is equally essential.

In general, diets high in salt have a tendency to be pretty low in potassium; therefore, they may lead to an imbalance; and the only ones that have to suffer are your kidneys. Doctors say that people with heart failure, high blood pressure, and impaired kidney function should be cautious of their salt and potassium intakes.

For instance, way too much potassium in a patient’s diet could lead to hyperkalemia. If neglected, it can increase the patient’s risk for abnormal heart rhythms. In severe cases, hyperkalemia can even lead to death.
