摘要

When salt levels in the body drop to a very low level (hyponatremia), the results are life-threatening, possibly leading to brain cell swelling, cautions Mort Satin, vice president for Science and Research at The Salt Institute, Alexandria, Va. It is a leading cause of death for the elderly and contributing factor to a decreased quality of life."Unfortunately, there is a widespread practice of low-sodium diets in assisted living facilities for senior citizens," says Satin, former director of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization's Agribusiness Program. "An extended period of low-sodium diets inevitably leads to chronic, mostly asymptomatic, hyponatremia. However, asymptomatic hyponatremia is a misnomer, presenting symptoms such as gait disorders, decreased reflex time, mimicking the effects of alcoholic excess, increased risk of bone frac-tures in ambulatory patients, and loss of cognition."
