A member asked:
Numerous tests show sodium level of 133 (range 136 - 145). other electrolytes ok. i have hashis and mostly asymptomatic. is the low sodium concerning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Serum sodium of 133 is not meaningfully low. As long as it is stable and you do not have any symptoms, do not be concerned. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex.
