I suffer from mega salt cravings from time to time. I literally eat the salt directly out of the shaker several times a day.
FYI - There is nothing wrong with me physically according to my doctor. Blood pressure is fine and there is no medical reason for me to crave salt like this.
My hands DO tend to swell up when I eat too much sodium and my doctor said I should try to cut down. I have tried upping my water intake. Anyone else suffer from salt craving and have found a solution?
