What is the percentage of salt in the human body?

Assuming the question pertains to table salt (sodium chloride), a human body contains approximately 0.15 percent by weight chlorine and 0.15 percent by weight sodium. This means that a 70-kilogram human (150 pounds) will contain 0.095 kilograms, or 95 grams, of each of the elements in table salt. The constituents of common table salt exist as separate ions in the human body, and if we could remove them and reconstitute them into table salt, they would make up about 8 tablespoons of salt for a 150 pound person.


Is salt fattening?

No. Anything with calories is fattening. Salt has no calories. That doesn't make salt healthy. Too much can increase your blood pressure, which can lead to hypertension and increase your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Answer: Salt doesn't convert to fat. You gain weight from salty foods because salt absorbs water. It holds water in the body. You just think it's fat ,when you look at the scales; your weight's gone up. Think of the way salt melts ice on roads and sidewalks. It works, not by generating heat, but by absorbing moisture.
