Top 20 Foods Naturally High In Sodium

Sodium is a mineral which is present only in small quantities in most natural foods, but salt is added, usually in large amounts, in food processing and by cooks to improve taste and flavor.

Sodium works closely with the other electrolyte minerals chloride and potassium. While potassium is mostly stored inside cells, 60 percent of this essential mineral is found in the fluids surrounding cells, with 10 percent within the cells and 30 percent in the bones.

A low-sodium diet can also contribute to a decrease in the risk of heart failure, stroke, osteoporosis, and kidney disease and stomach cancer.

A reduction in this mineral intake will reduce blood pressure and when blood pressure is lowered, a person has a smaller risk of developing heart disease.

The American Heart Association states that this mineral is an element that's needed for good health. Nevertheless, too much salt or too much water in your system will upset the balance.

Here is a list of top foods high in sodium:
