DONT MESS WITH ELECTROLYTES. CARBS HOLD MORE WATER THAN SODIUM, JUST MANIPULATE THAT. BELIEVE ME, YOU WOULD NOT LIKE THE FEELING OF BEING NEAR DEATH. IF I WERE YOU I WOULD GO HAVE A BLOOD TEST AND HAVE YOUR POTASSIUM LEVELS CHECKED.

I Agree!! I never mess with my sodium by adding or taking out. I never add salt to my food so I don't change anything the last week as far as diet. I do eat some pizza and a small amount of potatoe chips about 1 1/2 - 2 hours before going out. with out sodium you will not get a pump or get veiny.
