Supplementing Himalayan salt after surgery

(Jeremiah ) #1

I just had my appendix removed yesterday and have been hesitant on how much sodium I should take in a day and water. I’m 155 lbs but they pumped me with several bags of sodium and an afraid to go too strong with it. Any help is greatly appreciated :pray:

There is really no science behind the idea that too much salt is bad for you, and Dr. Phinney explains that the kidneys excrete more salt when we’re ketotic, so we need a lot more anyway. If you find yourself enjoying the taste of salt, keep eating it; if you happen not to find the taste attractive, your body probably has had enough.
