Seems a little bizzare for just changing your eating habits a bit unless you are licking a salt block.

Yeah, I thought malnutrition caused swelling of the stomach. Always picture those little children from 3rd world countries.
But my husband is a diabetic and his feet, ankles, and legs are always swollen.

I know that sounds weird I am just trying to come up with anything at this point! Its horrible!
I cant even hardly walk and I am freaking.... I did good all day not worrying about it but the worse it gets the more I freak!

Your body does need salt, just in moderation. What most people call salt though your body doesn't need. Table salt is a combination of sodium chloride, sugar, and sand. Any sea salt that is white is refined and has the nutrients taken out of it. There are only about 4 or 5 salts out there that are really good for you. Your salt shouldn't be white. Himalayan Salt is a good one and so is Real Salt. These salts taste saltier and you don't need as much of them. I am not a nurse and don't know if the salt has anything to do with you legs. Just info on salt.
