Why Does Sodium Intake Affect Leg Swelling In CKD? - Chronic Kidney Support

Описание: Why Does Sodium Intake Affect Leg Swelling In CKD? Have you ever wondered how sodium intake impacts leg swelling in people with chronic kidney disease? In this informative video, we'll explain everything you need to know about the connection between salt consumption and swelling. We'll start by discussing how the kidneys normally regulate sodium and water in the body. Then, we'll explore what happens when kidney function declines and how excess sodium can lead to increased blood volume and pressure. You'll learn how these changes cause fluid to leak into tissues, especially in the legs, resulting in swelling and discomfort. We’ll also cover how eating too much salty food can worsen this condition by making your body retain more water, which further increases swelling and puts additional strain on your kidneys. Additionally, we'll share practical tips on how to reduce sodium intake through diet modifications, such as limiting processed snacks, canned foods, and fast food. Managing salt consumption is a simple yet effective way to support kidney health, control blood pressure, and reduce leg swelling. Whether you're living with CKD or caring for someone who is, understanding how sodium affects your body can help you make better dietary choices.
