If you have normal BP, shouldn’t be an issue… just keep an eye on it.Originally Posted by 7Maxz

Blood pressure. High sodium intake can elevate it, so he's saying that if you're in the normal range, it shouldn't be something to worry too much about.Originally Posted by 7Maxz

Cut back on your sodium. I used to consume that much a long time ago. I would rub a lime wedge on this ladies bosom, dump salt on it, put the wedge between her teeth, lick the salt, do a shot of tequila then suck on the lime wedge. It nearly got me killed, but that is another story.

I would try and get it down some. Do you really need that much sodium?

I mean my sodium can be in that range easily on average... my BP just doesn't change. Consistently between 95-105 / 60-65Originally Posted by DougyF7

As some of the others said, it should be okay if your BP is normal. Adequate water and potassium will help counter the effects.

It's a little high, depending on your age though it doesn't matter or you can just trim it back a bit.
