Eating Too Much Salt? Find Out With These 7 Warning Signs
Uncomfortable bloating
Ever had a meal out only to find yourself with a bloated belly the next day? That’s because regardless of the cuisine, most of the times, what we eat out includes debatable quantities of salt that we cannot control.
The excessive consumption of salt, whether voluntary or not, increases the sodium level in the bloodstream, causing extra fluid retention. Consequently, you start experiencing bloating and bellyache. Fortunately, the effects of this salty overindulgence are usually temporary, until the fluid and sodium levels are balanced out.
