WELLNESS CANGGU : NAILING THE SALT/POTASSIUM BALANCE
There are salts and then there are
salts.. how do we know which are good
and which are bad?
The general rule of thumb is to avoid
consuming processed salt and use
natural salt in moderation. Thankfully
here in Bali, natural sea salts are
available in abundance, and full of
valuable nutrients.
Some of the many biological processes
for which natural rock & sea salt is
crucial include:
Being a major component of your
blood plasma, lymphatic fluid,
extracellular fluid, and even amniotic
fluid
Carrying nutrients into and out of your
cells, and helping maintain your acid-
base balance
Increasing the glial cells in your brain,
which are responsible for creative
thinking and long-term planning
Maintain and regulate blood pressure
Helping your brain communicate with
your muscles, so that you can move on
demand via sodium-potassium ion
exchange

Although natural salt, like everything,
should be enjoyed in moderation, it is
hard for a healthy person to overdo it.
Salt is actually a nutritional goldmine,
provided you watch your sodium-
potassium ratio.
Potassium is a key mineral that the
body relies on heavily to function
properly. It helps to lower blood
pressure by balancing out the negative
effects of salt. Eating salt raises the
amount of sodium in your bloodstream.
But by eating potassium rich fruits and
vegetables, you will increase your
potassium levels and help to restore
the delicate sodium/potassium balance.
Imbalance in this ratio of sodium to
potassium can lead to hypertension
(high blood pressure) but also
contribute to a number of other
diseases, including:
Heart disease and stroke
Memory decline
Osteoporosis
Ulcers and stomach cancer
Kidney stones
Cataracts
Erectile dysfunction
Rheumatoid arthritis
The easiest way to throw your sodium-
potassium ratio off kilter is by
consuming a diet of processed foods,
which are notoriously low in potassium
while high in sodium. (Processed foods
are also loaded with fructose, which is
clearly associated with increased heart
disease risk, as well as virtually all
chronic diseases.) Your body needs
potassium to maintain proper pH levels

in your body fluids, and it also plays an
integral role in regulating your blood
pressure.
Potassium deficiency leads to
electrolyte imbalance. Symptoms
include:
Water retention
Raised blood pressure and
hypertension
Heart irregularities/arrhythmias
Muscular weakness and muscle
cramps
Continual thirst and constipation
So, how do you optimise your sodium
to potassium ratio?
First, ditch all processed foods, which
are very high in processed salt and low
in potassium and other essential
nutrients.
Eat a diet of whole, unprocessed foods,
ideally organically and locally-grown to
ensure optimal nutrient content. This
type of diet will naturally provide much
larger amounts of potassium in relation
to sodium.
For your potassium, simply add more
potassium-rich whole foods. Green
vegetable juicing is an excellent way to
ensure youre getting enough nutrients
for optimal health, including about
300-400 mg of potassium per cup. By
removing the fiber you can consume
even larger volumes of important
naturally occurring potassium.
Potassium-rich fruits and vegetables
include:
Fruits: papayas, prunes, cantaloupe,
and bananas. (But be careful of
bananas as they are high in sugar and
have half the potassium that an
equivalent of amount of green
vegetables. It is an old wives tale that
you are getting loads of potassium from
bananas; the potassium is twice as
high in green vegetables)
Vegetables: broccoli, Brussels sprouts,
avocados, asparagus, and pumpkin
Nail your own sodium to potassium
ratio, by filling your Canggu life full of
potassium-rich organic fruits & veggies.
