Is eating too much salt bad?

what happens when you grow old if you ate A LOT of salt as a child?

Answer #1

Not good for blood-pressure.

Answer #2

Well a lot of people have no problems from eating a lot of salt but normally it could help to raise your blood pressure which then makes your kidneys work harder. My mother had high blood pressure since she was 25. She is now in the middle of kidney failure. Her doctor tells her that her kidney failure is from a combination of her high blood pressure medicine, her high blood pressure and all the salt she used to eat (she salted everything). The more salt you eat the more water your body stores also.
