For quite some time I tried living without adding any salt to my food, or
eating prepared cooking.net">food with it added.

Now I use some and have much more energy.

Too much salt gives a hot feeling behind the bridge of the nose, which I
used to get when I did a lot of sea swimming, but never realised it was salt
water ingestion which did this.

Have my kidneys become damaged and is this why I lack energy without
supplementing salt now? Have I spoilt my aldosterone mechanism or something
else in the salt retention pathway?

I had read in an old "Time" magaine that the Israeli army do not supplement
salt in the desert. Thet say the body can hold on to it.

I suppose there is the magnesium, bromine, lithium, boron, etc in sea water,
too.
