Morning John,

Of course I agree with your thinking and face most of the problems that

you describe.

I often think I drink too much water. The body seems to know what to do

with the excess.

 

Possibly we worry too much about providing the exact right amount of

everything. We are all aware of the master chemist that resides within us.

 

Like you, I would like to get the exact right amount of salt and

everything else.

That may not be possible.

 

I came across a good number of small plastic vials. I have a number of

sizes. They hold from 1/4 to 1/2 and 1 tsp. Some are larger and will hold

about 4 to 5000 mg of powered vitamins and minerals. I weigh out 2000 mg

of sea salt per vial. I think the good doctor,

Dr. Batman, suggest 2500 mg per day.

 

It is interesting that this amount is close to the amount needed for

potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Maybe this is telling us something.

 

I keep these in my shirt pocket and often when drinking water, will get

a small amount of salt.

 

My blood sodium has remained very constant for about 1.5 years now.

 

Why would we not think the body knows exactly what to do with the

excess? It would seem that we get excess minerals and B vitamins at times

with little problems.

 

Maybe someone can offer ideas about how the body handles the excess of

various substances.
