The salt that you find in table salt and most processed foods is sodium chloride. Salt in this form has been processed at high temperatures, which changes the molecular structure and removes vital minerals from the salt. Table salt also contains additives, anticaking agents, and even sugar. Excess salt consumption is associated with high blood pressure, fluid retention, heart and kidney disease.\n\nTrash It: Dump out your salt shaker and toss out all other packaged or processed foods with a high sodium content. This should be pretty easy for most people.\n\nStash it: We have been told for years to avoid salt, but following this advice can lead to even more problems. We are all salty on the inside—our blood, sweat, tears, and even our urine—it's all salty. It's important to replenish the salt in our body, using the right salt is what makes all the difference in the world. The best way to put salt back into your body is to use Celtic sea salt. This high quality salt contains over 80 balanced minerals from the sea. Celtic sea salt is essential for maintaining proper fluid balance and utilization in the body. It also normalizes blood pressure, enhances digestion, and nourishes the adrenal glands. Celtic sea salt is available at many natural food stores

Sodium in the body is mainly found in the fluids that surround the body's cells, such as the blood and lymph fluid. When sodium intake exceeds the amount the body can handle it builds up in the interstitial areas and the kidneys have to work extra hard to excrete a constant rise in daily sodium intake. A build up may cause the body to hold extra fluids in the blood and around the cells which contributes to increased blood pressure and also excess weight gain from water.

Not sure exactly what you are asking regarding "substance".  In the diet, salt would have alot to do with low/high pressure and it increases the volume of fluid/blood in your body the heart has to pump.  If you want to lower pressure, decrease your salt intake and processed/fast foods; also no sodas.  Increase water/fluids. Hope this helps.

something you can try is to overload your sodium intake for 24-36 hrs and also decrease water during that time.\n\nThen over the next 24-36 hrs you decrease you sodium to almost none and overload on the water.\n\nwhat this does is trick the body into storing water during the first phase...for the second phase, you body must flush out all the water that it stores and then some.\n\nthis is a temporary fix to the problem, you will lose the pounds you need but only for a few days. professional bodybuilders use this to drop weight and get ready to comptete. google to find a more detailed method\n\non another note, i dont think you are getting enough calories. your activity level is high and caloric intake is low. this causes the body to enter "starvation" and store fat. Personally, if I were you, I'd try to follow the "body for Life" system by Bill Phillips. Its a book and details what I think you are looking for.\n\nemail me if you want more details

The amount of salt that we eat has a direct effect on our blood pressure. The more salt we eat, the higher our blood pressure. This is true, not only in people with high blood pressure, but also in people with normal blood pressure. A high salt intake also causes other health damage such as greater retention of water in your body, which leads to swelling of the ankles. Too much salt also worsens thinning of the bones (osteoporosis), asthma and kidney disease and is closely related to cancer of the stomach. Therefore, everyone should cut the amount of salt they eat.\n\nThe Department of Health and Food Standards Agency recommend that everyone should cut their salt intake from the current amount of 10 to 12 grams of salt a day to 5 to 6 grams a day, or less. If you can reduce salt intake more, this will lower your blood pressure further
