    Considering the recommended daily amount is about 2300mg, probably 1-2 days and it'll be fine?

    Didn't you start a thread about this yesterday that you haven't bothered to reply to despite a number of people giving you answers? Drink lots of water, it won't hurt you and 5000 isn't actually that horrendous an amount, it will be gone in a day or two.

    I probably hit that every day without trying. I just turned hid it on my diary so I didn't have to see it.

    I have no issues with excess sodium and drink plenty of water, so I'm not concerned.
