The increases in body sodium, chloride and water which constitute the edema of congestive failure must be based ultimately on an undue retention of these constituents as taken in the diet. It is appropriate, therefore, to review the evidence which points to etiologic and contributory factors in producing such positive balances of body water and electrolytes....Bibliography1.
