Blood pressure results from the force of blood fluids pressing against the walls of blood vessels. Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is often caused by a constriction of the blood vessels by fatty deposits in artery walls. However, another cause of high blood pressure can be the intake of too much sodium in foods and table salt.

Why would too much salt intake cause someone to develop high blood pressure?

Respuesta :

Eating salt raises the amount of sodium in your bloodstream and wrecks the delicate balance, reducing the ability of your kidneys to remove the water. The result is a higher blood pressure due to the extra fluid and extra strain on the delicate blood vessels leading to the kidneys.
