When people learn to drink more water

>>11091398
Too much salt is bad for you, but that's true with anything. I accidentally doubled the salt in a recipe one time and it made me feel like shit after I tried to eat it, my chest felt tight, and drinking a lot of water only helped so much. It's going to be hard to eat too much salt if you're mostly eating homemade food but if you're eating a lot of processed stuff, it's going to have much more salt.

wtf is this drinking water reduces salts effect meme?

>What is dilution

>>11091510
It flushes it out of your system

kek, no.
Salt holds on to water. that's why blood pressure therapies have water pills.

>>11091557
How can we trust someone that got their microbiology license revoked?

>>11091398
People who have their colon taken out have a decreased risk for hypertensive disorders afterwards because they can't absorb as much salt.

>Colectomy did not reduce the general risk of CVD, but reduced the risk of hypertensive disorders, most likely due to salt and water depletion induced by colectomy.

>>11091557
how would a microbiologist be of any help in this topic.

>>11091564
Brainlet detected.
Salt doesn't hold onto anything. Go learn about diffusion gradients.
Also, water pill? You know it's pretty pathetic to post on this site past the age of 18, right? Fuck off baby boomer.

>>11091543
The less diluted it is the more you notice the effects.

Lol. I'm not that guy but I am also a microbiologist.
You brainlets are failing to realize that microbiology is a hard science. Therefore we have a higher understanding of biology and chemistry than the average retard posting on /ck/.
Too much salt is bad for you.

>>11091607
Thanks for proving my point. The only people that calls a diuretic pill a water pill is an uneducated baby boomer.

We graduated from college with science degrees.
So yeah, we are smart.
>Did you have a point?

>>11091625
Look here, cunt. It's obvious you're too old for this website. Leave, don't come back.

>>11091638
You're proving the point that the majority of millennials are autistic.

>>11091648
And you're proving the point that you're both too old and uneducated to fit in with your old crowd so you need to shit up this website which is populated by literal autistic children because this is the only place a loser like you could ever fit in.
Do yourself a favor, kys faggot.

>>11091658
>And you're proving the point that you're both too old and uneducated
But I was never wrong.

>>11091667
Quote me where I said you were wrong? I've only called you out of being old you stupid, uneducated, degenerate.

Proof enough, us mega-brainers post https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov papers as proof,
while you brainlets post Tammy's Internet Blog as "proof" or no proof at all.
Too much salt is bad for you. This thread is retarded, and a poor attempt at trolling.
>Exit stage right.

>>11091658
Doesn't that mean that you're equally uneducated and autistic? After all, we're all in the same place here. Pot, meet kettle.

>>11091673
But i'm not old. Medications are common knowledge in first world nations, you dumb american.

>>11091681
Wrong again, loser. You're not even using that saying correctly. You come here because you don't fit in with your own age group. Guess what? You don't fit in here either. Leave. Fuck off. Kill yourself.

>>11091689
OBSESSED

>>11091617
the common understanding is, that microbiology is one of the easiest natural sciences. it's a field where everyone can get a PHD because you can earn one with little effort.
to be honest, i would even trust my gym trainers more than you.

>>11091694
>I'm pissed because my "private health" insurance won't pay for the water pills since my hypertension was pre-existing.

You're so out of touch with this conversation. The Alzheimer's must be kicking in. Go get your "memory pills" you stupid fuck.

>>11091722
Go cram some more mac donalds in your gullet and claim it's not the food making you hypertensive you fat dumb american.

>>11091732
So out of touch and OBSESSED.
Kill yourself eurocuck

Oh shit talk about alzheimers.
You been drinking that flint water? dumb american.

>>11091760
LMAO @ ur life
Nice job reading you retarded europoor. Read the whole thing again you troglodyte. Salt doesn't hold onto water. Learn what a diffusion gradient is, like I already said. And it's not a water pill, it's a diuretic pill you old stupid uneducated degenerate baby boomer cunt.

>>11091772
>Salt doesn't hold onto water.
Yes it does, what is water retention due to salt.
Retention means to retain as in hold onto.

>reeeee common words
Captain autismo

>>11091777
>salt
>holding onto water
>this uneducated
Let me spoon feed you, pic related
For calling me a dumb American, you seem to have called yourself out on being the dumbest person here, so far. Salt has no property to "hold onto water". There's something called diffusion which dictates "water retention", which when osmosis occurs due to high salt content, it's not water retention, it's water leaving your surrounding tissues to equalize the amount of solute in your blood vessels. That, by definition, is not retention.
So please, fucking kill yourself.

>>11091797
>which when osmosis occurs due to high salt content
yup, pulls it out and holds on to it :) just like i said.

>Salt triggers osmosis by attracting the water and causing it to move toward it, across the membrane.

Your autism is harming you.

>>11091557
>former
Looking at your boogers suspended in agar in high school doesn't make you a microbiologist, champ.

>>11091826
>salt is now a sponge
pic related is now thrown out the window because you're so stupid
Please fuck off already boomer. You're debating someone younger than you, who is somehow leagues more educated than you. You should be embarrassed to be this stupid.

>>11091838
>what is ionic attraction
Attraction is something you'll never know, anon.

>>11091826
Also, by definition osmosis is a passive process. All diffusion is. Salt does not exert a force, energy, or magic to make water do anything. Diffusion, by definition, is a passive process of the movement of atoms/molecules from high concentration to low.
That same salt that "pulls it out" is going to be absorbed into your surrounding tissues, like the picture displays with the shriveled up red blood cell.
I hope this explanation wasn't too complicated for your tiny eurocuck brain.

>>11091847
>he thinks ionic attraction plays a part in diffusion
>being this stupid
>not understanding disassociation principles


I'm done giving you a 7th grade level lesson. If you're too stupid to realize why you're wrong at this point, you're beyond hope. Show some humility and apologize for being so arrogant despite your large lack in intelligence compared to me.

Potassium. Balance the sodium.

>>11091858
>"pulls it out"
Nice explanation autismo. It's the same as saying "holds onto"
the only thing that should have pulled out was your dad.

>>11091699
>Trying to troll this hard with zero results.

>>11091900

>>11091858
Salt forms a solvation shell when dissolved in water by electrostatic attraction. That decreases water activity and raises the number of thermally accessible microstates that can be populated by diffusion.

>>11091398
Too much salt is bad for you. On average our daily intake of salt is 100x what we actually need.

just eat bananas and drink more water to counteract the effects

>>11092013
doubt it

>>11091547
Excess salt intake increases the homeostatic renal pressure natriuresis setpoint to a supraphysiological level which causes the body to hold onto a supraphysiological amount of water and salt. You can't simply 'flush it out'

You actually don't /need/ any salt (Na+) in your diet whatsoever.

There's a reason they put salt in gatorade.

>>11091557
>Sodium is bad for your heart though.
Only if you go over a certain threshold, which can be said for every single thing you eat. This does not make something innately bad, especially if it's inconsequential for a normal person.

>>11091510
Normal people piss out excess water-soluble elements and molecules.

>>11092274
>Normal people piss out excess water-soluble elements and molecules.
But people who do that still can have hypertension from salt intake. So it doesn't explain anything.

>>11091398
Never, there are literally still brainlet boomer doctors that buy into the meme that dietary cholesterol is bad for you, despite being disproven unequivocally in the 1950s.

>>11091617

You niggers are dumber than engineers that can at least be thought to plug and chug like monkeys.

>>11091630

As a Computational Chemist, judging by the average level other science students, this is not true.

>>11092261
>In hyponatremia, one or more factors — ranging from an underlying medical condition to drinking too much water — cause the sodium in your body to become diluted.

I can't believe you didn't even read your own fucking link. Diet and sweating from exercise are not on the list of causes. I thought that edgy guy in this thread was being a little angsty, but he really is dealing with retards.

>inb4 drinking too much water is a diet

Care to enlighten us with the disproof?
