Scientists have found that too salty food reduces thirst and increases the feeling of hunger, since a person needs more energy. And hunger, in turn, makes a person more aggressive.

To such conclusions, experts came as a result of a study conducted during a simulated mission to Mars. Scientists note that the amount of salt and drinking water consumed are interrelated, but no one thought that so.

The connection between salt intake and drinking can affect the condition of the body. Thus, while eating salty foods, the salt content in the urine increases. Also, salt triggers a mechanism to preserve water in the kidneys.
