If you eat a lot of salt and drink a lot of water will you get bloated?

Yes, consuming a lot of salt can lead to bloating because salt causes the body to retain water to balance sodium levels. When you drink a lot of water in conjunction with high salt intake, this can exacerbate water retention, leading to further bloating. This combination can result in a feeling of fullness and swelling in various parts of the body. Moderation in both salt and water intake is key to avoiding bloating.
