Thanks for the free medical advice.  I'm sure it's worth what I paid for it.

BTW, my late wife was admitted to the hospital because her blood sodium was
dangerously low ... she later died (tho not directly from the low sodium).

Which is still only 5% of a "low sodium" diet, if you do happen to consume a
pound of ice every day.  And use an icemaker that leaves the salt in the
ice.
