Salt Trivia

[burtlancast]

Here's one interesting fact about the role of salt in past societies:

"Sodium chloride lies at the heart of human biology
and the roots of human civilization. Abundance or absence
of this simple compound has had profound effects
on human health and has provided a casus belli in many
important milestones in the history of man (for an excellent
historical account, see Ref. 182). Several initial forms
of economics were based on salt rather than metal coinage
and the words salary and soldier are derived from the
Latin sal for salt, as is salus, the Latin word for “health.”
Industrial advances have largely eliminated salt as a limiting
component of human nutrition or resource.

Human health is negatively influenced
by excess sodium intake that may result in hypertension
and other health problems (69, 101, 212)."

Thanks for the interesting read. Salt is a cornerstone of treatment for my histamine intolerance. Salt is an antihistamine that actually helps remove it from my body; rather than merely masking the symptoms of high histamine.
Merry Christmas to You and Yours....

very well.
The thing is, treatment has side-effects,for possible increased Histamine-excretion you are introducing Sodium and Chlorine stress to the system.And im sure that a lot of people feel relief from salt,but at what price?For Histamine intolerance,Vitamin C,Vitamin B6 and 2 to 4 mg Copper as a supplement,Diamino-oxidase which catabolizes Histamine is highly affected by even small deficiency of Copper,reduction to only 25% efficacy,and they are physiologic,the actual needed compounds.
