    I think it helps you retain water and can clog arteries, I know younger people often dont have to worry about it as much but when I was helping care for an elderly family member and he had a heart condition when they made us limit his sodium, his legs would start to swell up if he had too much.

    In some ppl who are sensitive to sodium it raises their blood pressure and that leads to many problems in itself.
