Salt is involved in maintaining a proper balance of water in the body, and regulating the heart rate among other things.

I'm glad your Mom has managed to survive all those heart attacks! How scary for her and you! I've had only one and that was frightening!
Just last year she finally got her heart defibrillator, and a pace maker keeping her alive, she has about 40 % of her heart that was not damaged by all her heart attacks, she had two of them the last two months, one she had a couple weeks ago when she was leaving the hospital, she laid on the garage sidewalk for about 20 min. and no one saw her !! i was so pissed i called the hospital and asked if they still had security people working there... she was out in that cold. laying on the side walk !! she woke up and sat in her car for awhile and drove home. My sister and i now have her car keys, and we take her everywhere she needs to go, and she went back down Pittsburgh hospital and there giving her stonger meds. so we will see if this helps..
