When I am waking up in the morning, my fingers and eye lids are swollen. Could it be from salt?

Question: I used to drink soda before I went to bed and I noticed when I woke up my fingers and eye lids were swollen. They were not bruised or anything weird like that, they were just puffy.

I stopped drinking soda all together and it doesn’t happen as often.

Last night I had pasta and artichokes and drank water, I woke up with my eye lids and finger puffy again. My eyes look like I was crying the night before.

Could I be salt sensitive? I don’t have any medical problems and I am not pregnant or on any medication.

I can’t figure it out, is this normal?

Answers:
You could be..it could also be allergies. I don't have a problem with salt, but I wake up every morning this time of year with swollen eyes. Try cutting out salt all together for a while, if that doesn't work, it's probably allergies.
