What effect would eating too much salt have on the body?

Simply put, eating too much salt would lead you to become dehydrated and your organs would start failing. Salt creates a hypertonic solution around cells which leads water to move out into the extra cellular space. The shriveled cells are then relatively useless, as organs need healthy cells to function properly. Salt pulls water from your cells, which heavily impacts organ function throughout the body
