Chloride: The major anion (negatively charged substance) in the blood and extracellular fluid (the body fluid that lies outside cells). Blood and other body fluids have almost the same concentration of chloride ion as sea water. The balance of chloride ion (Cl-) is closely regulated by the body.

Significant increases or decreases in chloride can have deleterious and even fatal consequences:

Hyperchloremia: Abnormally high blood chloride. Elevations in chloride may be seen in diarrhea, certain kidney diseases, and sometimes in overactivity of the parathyroid glands.

Hypochloremia: Abnormally low blood chloride. Chloride is normally lost in the urine, sweat, and stomach secretions. Excessive loss can occur from heavy sweating, vomiting, and adrenal gland and kidney disease.

The normal serum range for chloride is 98 - 108 mmol/L.

ITHINK THIS IS YOUR ANSWER YOU ARE NOT DRINKING ENOUGH WATER AND YOU HAVE TO MUCH SALT READ BELOW

Increased levels of blood chloride (called hyperchloremia) usually indicate dehydration, but can also occur with other problems that cause high blood sodium, such as Cushing's syndrome or kidney disease. Hyperchloremia also occurs when too much base is lost from the body (producing metabolic acidosis) or when a person hyperventilates (causing respiratory alkalosis).

Chloride Levels In Blood

High Chloride In Blood

Niacinamide ( called "flush free niacin) lowers the level of the bad,small molecule lipids that start the plaque buildup. You might try that. Discuss the various treatment options with your doctor. Get on a good diet. If you smoke, stop. ( I know-been there) Niacinamide is not a Rx item. A health-food store should have it, and many drugstores will. If all the other electrolytes are OK, I would not worry about the chloride. ( you did not give the level) Exercise and diet are the two best things to do. The Cardiologists want a statin put in the city water supply, but there is some contraversy still.

Blood pressure- Stage 2 Hypertension.(Normal-less than 120/80 mm Hg; prehypertension- less than 140/90 mm Hg.) Eat a low-cholesterol, low-fat diet. This kind of diet includes cottage cheese, fat-free milk, fish (not canned in oil), vegetables, poultry, egg whites, and polyunsaturated oils and margarines (corn, safflower, canola, and soybean oils). Avoid foods with excess fat in them such as meat (especially liver and fatty meat), egg yolks, whole milk, cream, butter, shortening, lard, pastries, cakes, cookies, gravy, peanut butter, chocolate, olives, potato chips, coconut, cheese (other than cottage cheese), coconut oil, palm oil, and fried foods. Changes in lifestyle habits are the main therapy for hypertriglyceridemia. These are the changes you need to make: • If you're overweight, cut down on calories to reach your ideal body weight. This includes all sources of calories, from fats, proteins, carbohydrates and alcohol. • Reduce the saturated fat, trans fat and cholesterol content of your diet. • Reduce your intake of alcohol considerably. Even small amounts of alcohol can lead to large changes in plasma triglyceride levels. • Be physically active for at least 30 minutes on most or all days each week. • People with high triglycerides may need to substitute monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats — such as those found in canola oil, olive oil or liquid margarine — for saturated fats. Substituting carbohydrates for fats may raise triglyceride levels and may decrease HDL ("good") cholesterol in some people. • Substitute fish high in omega-3 fatty acids instead of meats high in saturated fat like hamburger. Fatty fish like mackerel, lake trout, herring, sardines, albacore tuna and salmon are high in omega-3 fatty acids. Low sodium intake.(Sodium chloride, Monosodium glutamate, Sodium bicarbonate) *Regular exercise. *Stop tobacco smoking. *Stop consuming alcohol. *Reduce fat and oils in the diet. *Obesity - In obese subjects, losing a kilogram of mass generally reduces blood pressure by 2 mmHg.
