Sodium helps maintain blood volume, but too much causes the blood to retain fluid. The increased blood volume then calls on the heart to work harder to circulate blood to all the tissues in the body and increases blood pressure, also known as hypertension. Elevated blood pressure increases the risk for heart disease and stroke.
For many, reducing the amount of sodium in the diet is very important. Even small decreases in the amount of salt in your diet can have a significant positive effect on your health. It is widely believed that a low-salt diet that is rich in fruits and vegetables and low in fat can help lower your blood pressure.
The compound known as "salt" contains two minerals: sodium and chloride. It's only the "sodium" component that sometimes creates problems. For all the bad press that sodium receives, it's important to realize that sodium is an essential nutrient, not only to life, but to good health. It helps to maintain blood volume, regulate the balance of water in the cells, and transmit nerve impulses.
The USDA/FDA guidelines for "Healthy" foods are foods that do not exceed 360 mg of sodium per serving. The Sodium Guidelines as set by the USDA/FDA are as follows:
