Q: why is a low sodium blood count dangerous

my sister has type 2 diabetes.  Her blood sodium counts are low. She is dozing off frequently. She does not exercise and eats poorly.  The doctor has asked her to drink no more that 4 cups of liquid a day and to quit drinking diet sodas. 

 

Is low blood sodium connected with how glucose is processed?

I read celery juice helps the low sodium, as it is the only thing that puts back low sodium.  Hope this helps.
