To reach these results, researchers studied more than 11,000 adults over 30 years. According to a release, the aim was to examine the relationship between serum sodium levels that increase when fluid intake is reduced and various health indicators.
Therefore, they concluded that adults with borderline levels were at risk of chronic conditions, early death, but also showed more signs of aging.
