Does Sodium Make You Fat
Q. Does sodium make you fat?
A. Sodium creates water fluctuations on the scale; it is not causing you to gain body fat. Usually, after a higher sodium meal, you will find an increase in water. A day of drinking lots of fluid will usually bring your weight back down. If you are aware of the higher sodium foods that you consume, you will not be disappointed when the scale goes up. Higher sodium foods in your menu could be egg whites, tuna, cottage cheese, cheese slices, or a restaurant meal.
Sodium must be kept constant as fluctuations in sodium intake will cause water weight gain. The secret to sodium is to keep it high or keep it low. The key is keeping it constant. We have found that keeping sodium minimal is the best approach to our dieting philosophies.
