Why a person suffering from high blood pressure is advised to take minimum quantity of common salt?

Answer»

Solution :OSMOTIC PRESSURE is directly proportional to the concentration of the solutes. Our body fluid contains a number of solutes. On taking large AMOUNT of common salt, `Na^(+)` and `Cl^(-)` ions enter into the body fluid THEREBY raising the concentration of the solutes. As a results, osmotic pressure increases which may RAPTURE the blood cells.
