How can I tell if my sodium intake is too high?


Are there any symptoms?

My son is 8 going on 9..?



Answers:
Sodium in the body is mainly found in the fluids that surround the body's cells, such as the blood and lymph fluid. When sodium intake exceeds the amount the body can handle it builds up in the interstitial areas and the kidneys have to work extra hard to excrete a constant rise in daily sodium intake. A build up may cause the body to hold extra fluids in the blood and around the cells which contributes to increased blood pressure and also excess weight gain from water.

People without health issues (for example, congestive heart failure) should limit their sodium intake to 4 grams per day. Certain health conditions are much better managed with a sodium restriction, perhaps as little as 2 grams per day. Read labels and pay attention to serving sizes.

If your kidneys aren't compensating for your sodium intake, the primary symptom is water-retention.

Talk to your doctor. Get a physical that includes a basic blood test. That will give you your answer.
