Guest guest Posted October 2, 2001 Report Share Posted October 2, 2001 No way is sea water good for the kidneys. In fact that is how people die at sea if they are marooned without fresh water supplies. Eventually thirst will drive them to try sea water, and their kidneys will shut down from all the salt. It is a very agonizing death. This has been historically documented all the way back to ancient Greek writings. The body can handle a lot of salt, but sea water has more than the body can handle. In general people with kidney problems are advised to avoid salt to at least some extent.
