Question

why the patients suffering from high B.P are advised to take minimum quantity of solt

Answer 1

So, excess salt causes more fluid to be retained and higher fluid volume in the bloodstream causes blood pressure to go up. ... By having extra Sodium(Na) from common salt, the body retains water in an attempt to 'Dilute” the Na. This results in an extra volume of blood which makes the blood pressure higher.

Answer 2

Consuming salt, sodium chloride is demonstrably associated with increased blood pressure, but the effect is small, roughly a half teaspoon raises your blood pressure by 2mm (for reference, the recommended daily intake is approximately two teaspoons) And hypertension, in its turn has been associated with cardiovascular disease. So for many, there is a chain of causality where reducing salt reduces hypertension, and that reduction subsequently reduces cardiovascular disease. While seeming logical new evidence demonstrates that logic to be flawed
