A year ago I wrote an article about the positive effect of Sodium in the
diet.
Now that the hot season is approaching and the
diet tend to be slimmer the significance of not banning it completely is
important.
This suggestion is only for the Fitness Fun and Bodybuilding and Fitness guru who tend to ban Salt completely even 2-3 months before a contest like they often do with carbohydrates so important to stimulate Insuline and T4.
Salt who should be kept under the 3 gr. per day must be present in your diet if you are willing to loose weight and water, yes water.
If you restrict too much sodium especially in a low
caloric diet which is poor of sodium, your body to equilibrate the imbalance
increase Aldosterone with the only effect of more water retention than
before.
The effect of sodium starts in your digestive tract
helping in the assimilation of peptides and aminoacids, it is then absorbed and
goes to your muscle cells to help contraction by balancing communication.
It stimulates Hormones
production which increase the fatburning capacity of adipocites, and finally
but not last helps prevent loss of blood pression on athlete so frequent in the
hot season.
It seams that Sodium like anything else is
victimized regularly confusing the overuse of it in junks food with the healthy
side of the element.
I personally suggest a little of iodized salt at
every meal during cutting period and summer season, followed by a more caloric
diet and a restriction of its use at winter bulking time ( diet would be
already reach of sodium ).
Don’t forget to drink during the summer, combining
higher sodium and higher water introduction the retention is prevented
