fatnews.com Hi, this is Larry Hobbs @ FatNews.com. Why not just stop over-consuming sodium instead? Americans consume 4000-5000 mg of sodium per day because of processed foods, but only need 100-400 mg per day. This is an excerpt from a letter by Richard Moore, MD, PhD dated August 31, 2009. Hi, this is Larry Hobbs @ FatNews.com. About Dr. Moore Dr. Moores received his MD from Indiana University, and his Ph.D. in biophysics from Purdue University. Starting in 1963, Dr. Moore spent 40 years as a college professor and research scientist teaching and researching cellular biophysics. Dr. Moores research group research group discovered that insulin regulates the activity of the mechanism that exchanges potassium for sodium in live cells. Dr. Moores group also discovered that, connected with this, insulin elevates the pH inside cells. This research and that of others then led to insights in how our dietary imbalance between potassium and sodium cause hypertension and other diseases. Since recognizing the critical importance of the dietary ratio of potassium-to-sodium (in 1983), I have been trying to educate the public about this issue primarily by writing books. Dr. Moore is the author of several books including The High Blood Pressure Solution. Dr. Moore is the also co-author of The Salt Solution. This book discusses how an imbalance of potassium and sodium not only affects: • stroke • hypertension … but also how it affects: • osteoporosis • stomach cancer • asthma • kidney …
