Hey Friend,

If someone is trying to reduce their dietary sodium-ion intake then it is advisable to reduce the intake softened water. We know that hard water consists of calcium ions and magnesium ions, now water softeners are used to convert hard water to soft water.

These water softeners work by replacing the calcium ions and magnesium ions of water with sodium ions and thus, softened water has high sodium ion content!
