Best Answer

I would answer yes. I had a rash around my waist and on both sides of my torso for a couple of years. About five days ago, I thought I would cut down on salting my food.

Amazingly, my rash has subsided. I have tried everything! I thought I was allergic to every food and every supplement, and every laundry detergent. Now I know it is salt.

Also, eating in restaurants make the rash come back, but I am going to check into requesting no forms of MSG be put on my food and see how that goes.

Yes rats are able to eat any kind of nut, but like humans, rats should not eat many of them because the salt intake is too much for their tiny bodies. A human is only supposed to have a certain amount of salt in their diet, they should have no more then three nuts a day. The more nuts, the more salt. To much salt in a rats diet can cause internal problems and a shorter life span.


Can too much salt cause a red skin rash?

Yes, both my husband get these rashes that itch from ingesting too much salt. I am not a doctor, but through trial and error, I do this to take the "itchiness" away: I put rubbing alcohol on the rash, then wipe w/pure water, then dry the area, then put noxema and carmex on the skin and avoid wearing anything tight over the skin so the skin can breathe. I also sometimes put talc powder (either plain or for powder for atheletics foot) on top as that seems to dry up the rash. When the rash isn't too bad, I just use the rubbing alcohol and noxema (original version). The salt seems to creep in when we go out to eat and is in just about every half-way instant food. Afterwards, I drink lots of liquids the next day to flush the salt out.
