About Hyponatremia (low sodium):

Hyponatremia or low sodium, is a condition that occurs when the level of sodium in your blood is abnormally low relative to the amount of water in your blood. Sodium is an electrolyte. One role of sodium in the body is to help regulate the amount of water that is in and around your cells. In hyponatremia, one or more factors cause you to have too much water relative to sodium in your body. When this happens cells in your body begin to swell. This swelling can cause many health problems from minor to moderate to life-threatening.

• Confusion or brain fog
• Balance issues
