Question
I was wondering how much sodium is in one serving of the nasal solution. Using the irrigation machine I have, I think I have been taking in too much sodium, which has led to high blood pressure. Is this possible?
Answer
Dear Mr. Kunis:
Thank you for your inquiry. We are not certain how much sodium is in breathe ease. Although, it is doubtful that the sodium alone may raise your blood pressure to a level that may cause you concern. We would recommend consulting with your physician and a dietitian to establish the possible source of your high blood pressure.
