I'm told I've got it- or, at least, the little machines say so.
What do you to counter it (apart that is from taking nasty medicine)?
You cut back on alcohol, caffeine, salt.
Now interestingly I've been cutting back on alcohol and caffeine anyway- not for any thought-through reason but simply because I no longer want them. Wine, beer, coffee? No, most of the time I'll pass. Make mine a lemonade or even water. Water is good....
Because I think the body has its own wisdom. It knows what it needs or doesn't need. It makes its requirements felt.
It hasn't yet told me that it doesn't care for salt, but I'm listening.....
