Higher Salt Intake for Orthostatic Disorders

For certain orthostatic disorders/POTS-like syndromes, cited recommendations ranged from 6,000-10,000 mg salt/day, with 10,000 mg/day specifically mentioned by the Canadian Cardiovascular Society; this corresponds to roughly 2,400-4,000 mg sodium/day.

“The American Society of Hypertension recommends anywhere from 6,000 to 10,000. These are very high levels. So this is six grams to 10 grams of salt per day... So that equates to about 2,400 to 4,000 milligrams of sodium per day.”
