Prior to his kidney transplant, John Miller was on dialysis and his sodium intake was restricted to 2500 mg daily. His blood pressure levels have averaged 140/90 mmHg. When Mr. Miller inquires if he should continue to restrict his sodium after his transplant, you reply, .

Since your blood pressure is still elevated, you need to restrict your sodium level to 2.0-2.4g/day

Explanation:

Elevated blood pressure can be defined as the way in the a person blood pressure is above normal and this can often leads to hypertension or high blood pressure and may be dangerous due to the fact that the heart may find it hard to pump enough blood which is why some steps has to been taken to avoid it.

Therefore it is advisable for John Miller to reduce his sodium intake to to 2.0-2.4g/day after undergoing his kidney transplant since his blood pressure levels have averaged 140/90 mmHg.

When Mr. Miller inquires if he should continue to restrict his sodium after his transplant, you reply SINCE YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE IS STILL ELEVATED,YOU NEED TO REDUCE YOUR SODIUM INTAKE TO 2.0 to 2.4g/day

Explanation: Eating salt or other foods high in sodium raises the amount of sodium in your bloodstream and wrecks the delicate balance, this reduces the ability of your kidneys to remove the water accumulated in the body, the result is a higher blood pressure due to the extra fluid and extra strain on the delicate blood vessels leading to the kidneys.

If one eats too much salt, the extra water stored in the body raises the blood pressure. So, the more the sodium consumption, the higher the blood pressure. The higher the blood pressure, the greater the strain on your heart, arteries, kidneys and brain. This can lead to heart attacks, strokes, dementia and kidney disease.

Since Miller already has a kidney disease which requires a transplant, consuming more sodium will overload/overwork the already diseased kidney.

minerals contribute to our overall health because they your body grow, develop, and stay healthy. our bodies use minerals to us function throughout the day.tromhey us build strong bones, so we can do more things in life. with certain minerals, they can you maintain a normal heartbeat!

though, as as minerals are for us, they can also be very dangerous if one were to consume too many. if you were to take too much minerals, or even vitamins, you could experience nausea and diarrhea. all trace minerals can be very toxxic at high levels of consumption. taking too much of some minerals will result in hair loss! but this goes with almost everything in life, taking too much of something that is good, will eventually be bad for you.

my intake in minerals was normal. there really is no need to improve, i am healthy, and i am experiencing no nausea or diarrhea. i am as healthy as a bee. ☺ (sorry that i cannot you with the mineral intake)

what i have learned so far is that taking too much something can be very bad for you. taking too many minerals or vitamins, or anything healthy in general, can result in nausea and diarrhea, as well as hair loss. it would be a good idea to track what you put into your body, good or bad.
