How would one know that sodium goes through into the urine? I love meats
heavily salted, just lightly salt veggies. I gave up sugar and carbs a few
days ago and it is so hard. Without starches I feel hungry right after having
a large meal. Oh, I'm still having a whey shake though, milk, whey, inulin,
coconut oil and a banana. I don't know what to do with the whey, I hate the
way it tastes unless it's mixed with banana, but believe it's something I need.

Certainly I "crave" salt, but that is because my sodiium is always low,
and I excrete most of the large amount of salt I take in in my urine. I
can't hold onto sodium. I think this perhaps explains why I feel so much
worse when I've tried taking magnesium or potassium. They unbalance my
already low sodium even more.
Adrenal insufficiency, or adrenal fatigue, seems to be becoming more and
more common, though hardly any MDs or other medical practitioners
believe it exists. But certainly I do have it, my cortisol levels are
extremely low, and I may also be low in aldosterone as well as
cortisol. Aldosterone is the adrenal hormone that controls sodium and
mineral balance. If I was able to, I'd get aldosterone and renin tested,
perhaps I need supplemental aldosterone (fludrocortisone). Whatever, on
the thyroid and adrenal lists I have joined, many many people are very
low sodium, and many of those are "salt wasters" like me, and are low
sodium though they take in copious amounts of salt.
Therefore, when you see someone "addicted" to salt, consider they may
simply be giving their body what their body is telling them it needs.
>From my own personal experience, I am very leery of supplementing
minerals when sodium is low. I have problems even eating minimal amounts
of high potassium foods.
