The Myths and Misconceptions of Salt with Dr. Bryan Ardis

Fabulous info and thank you for doing it ...

The question people want to know...

How much, in terms of teaspoon measure, is the right amount of salt per day?

Celtic Salt is the best!

Does anyone have a link for the Tel Aviv study on salt and blood pressure?

I thank you so much much for this information, a good friend of mine sent me a 13 minute short video clip of this video. My blood pressure has been hovering around 240/143/70 (my average for the past 4 years, since I have been monitoring my own BP readings). For 3 days now, my bp is down 209/134. I so excited

I add salt to my oats porridge every morning one level teaspoon—5 grams. Also I put a grain or two of Celtic salt on my tongue every hour— 2 hours of eating a drink of a glass of water now.

In general, I agree with the fact that there'a a huge propaganda concerning most health matters, influenced by the pharma industry, and such influence allowed, and indeed propagated, by certain organisations and institutions. However, some misinformation in the above video also.

ACE inhibitors are not made from snake poison, but their development was inspired by a compound found in the venom of a Brazilian pit viper (Bothrops jararaca). Researchers discovered that the venom of the Brazilian pit viper contained a peptide that inhibited the enzyme responsible for breaking down bradykinin, a molecule that dilates blood vessels. This peptide indirectly pointed scientists to the role of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which plays a crucial role in regulating blood pressure by narrowing blood vessels and increasing fluid retention. Inspired by this natural peptide, scientists synthesized and modified compounds to create the first ACE inhibitors.
