Re: Himalaya salt

Hvis man har slitne binyrer så vil man ofte ha lave nivåer av aldosterone. Aldosterone regulerer elektrolyttene, blodtrykk og vannbalansen i kroppen.

Ved lite aldosterone så sliter kroppen med å opprettholde saltbalansen, og man får dermed lyst på noe salt. Alle kroppens biokjemiske reaksjoner er i stor grad avhengig av riktig salt-, og vannbalansen, så man vil helt klart merke en bedring ved å spise/drikke uraffinert salt. Symptomer på lavt aldosterone skal være hjertebank, lavt blodtrykk, høy puls, og svimmelhet.


"Many patients coming to see Dr. Friedman lately with symptom of fatigue and often symptoms
of salt-craving, “cognitive fuzziness”, dizziness or lightheadedness on standing, or palpitations
have low blood levels of aldosterone. He explains the connection between low aldosterone levels
and fatigue as follows: with low aldosterone, the kidney loses salt, leading to low blood volume.
This coupled with the idea that the leg veins don’t constrict properly, leads to lower blood
volume to the brain and fatigue and other symptoms. These patients often have a drop in their
blood pressure and an increase in their pulse when standing. They may also have decreased
blood flow to the brain when measured by SPECT scan. Aldosterone deficiency may be made
worse if patients restrict their salt intake"
