When the salt concentration in your blood rises, water is pulled from your Intracellular Fluid (ICF) into the blood or Extracellular Fluid (ECF). Increased fluids in the blood vessels stretches the blood vessels and causes increased Blood Pressure (BP). Increased BP induces a complicated protein cascade that leads to more salt and subsequently water being secreted from your kidneys. Secreting more water causes you to become dehydrated as your ICF and ECF re-equilibrate.
