Heavy metals are generally defined as metals with relatively high densities, atomic weights, or atomic numbers and sodium meets none of these criteria.
Why is iron heavy while sodium is light?
The density of an element depends on the number of the nucleons (protons and neutrons) in the atom nucleus.

Why does eating pizza make you thirsty?
The body tries to maintain a specific concentration of Sodium within the body. When you eat Sodium heavy foods such as pizza, the local concentrations of the Sodium within the body increase. This effect is not the best for maintain the Sodium-Potassium pump which is pivotal in the optimal functioning of the cell. That is why, to lower the concentration of Sodium, the body tries to increase the concentration of water. This makes you feel thirsty.
