1. You may develop skin tags over time.\n\n

Although watching how much salt you eat can definitely benefit your health, cutting it\u00a0out from your diet completely might not be\u00a0the best choice. When you don\u2019t get enough sodium on\u00a0a\u00a0daily basis, over time it\u00a0might\u00a0affect\u00a0your insulin resistance, which, in\u00a0turn, will be\u00a0noticeable on\u00a0your skin. If\u00a0your body doesn\u2019t respond well to\u00a0insulin, it\u00a0may lead to\u00a0unwanted hair growth and\u00a0skin tags\u00a0that aren\u2019t easy to\u00a0get rid\u00a0of.\n\n

2. You might notice a\u00a0net-like pattern on\u00a0your skin.\n\n

Following a\u00a0low\u00a0sodium diet might be\u00a0just what the doctor ordered for people who already suffer from heart conditions. But if\u00a0you never complained about your heart, eating\u00a0less\u00a0salt than your body needs might actually affect\u00a0it. When your cardiovascular health is\u00a0out of\u00a0balance, it\u00a0might also be\u00a0visible on\u00a0your skin and cause your body to\u00a0develop a\u00a0blue or\u00a0purple net-like\u00a0pattern on\u00a0your skin.\n\n
\n
3. Your skin might dry out.\n\n

Keeping your skin well hydrated is\u00a0key if\u00a0you want your face to\u00a0appear youthful and smooth with fewer fine lines. Cutting out salt completely from your diet might actually prevent you from achieving that because when your body doesn\u2019t get enough sodium, it\u00a0might cause symptoms similar to\u00a0dehydration. This, in\u00a0turn, might make your skin appear\u00a0dry\u00a0and wrinkly, especially around your mouth, lips, and eyes.\n\n
\n
4. Your skin may lose its elasticity.\n\n

You might be\u00a0spending lots of\u00a0money on\u00a0expensive creams and moisturizers that are meant to\u00a0make your skin look bright and plump, but not getting enough sodium might actually sabotage all your efforts. If\u00a0there\u2019s too little sodium in\u00a0your body, it\u00a0might cause your skin to\u00a0lose\u00a0its volume and elasticity and appear saggy.\n
How much salt do\u00a0you usually eat? Have you ever tried to\u00a0cut salt out of\u00a0your diet?\n
