Look man, my comment was saying you can't just cherrypick a single sentence out of context from a long study (especially when the context of that section contradicts your own point). If you want to argue about sodium intake there's other comments in here for that.
The statement you picked made it out that there is no correlation between sodium intake and heart rate. The study you took that statement from was making the point that we can't draw such conclusions either way.
I didn't say anything about whether or not people should flip flop recommendations. But don't irresponsibly cite studies. It defeats your entire argument when you do so.

Instead I linked to the meta study to give better context.
