∙ 12y agoThe reason sodium is important to your body is because it regulates the amount of fluid your body holds in order to keep it functioning properly. Your blood pressure is dependent on a delicate balance of sodium in your system. An excess amount of sodium in your body will cause hypertension, or high blood pressure. Too little sodium can result in low blood pressure as well as other issues. Nutrients are transported in your body and absorbed by cells with the help of sodium. As you can see, everything in your body depends on your sodium levels being perfectly balanced.
