Some point, he even cut consuming salt in his eating habits. Doctors warned him about the dangers of this habit
Mahatma Gandhi was known for his simple lifestyle and strict discipline. At one point, he even stopped consuming salt in his meals. However, doctors warned him about the dangers of this habit. Salt is essential for the body as it contains sodium and other minerals that regulate several vital bodily functions.
If salt is not consumed for a long period, the body may face a sodium deficiency, which can lead to fatigue, muscle cramps, dizziness, low blood pressure, and weakness. A lack of salt can also negatively affect the functioning of the nervous system and the heart.
In Gandhi’s case, doctors informed him about the harmful effects of avoiding salt. Following their medical advice, he made changes to his diet. This incident serves as an example that both excessive and insufficient intake of any substance can be harmful to health.
