    There's nothing healthy about 'high sodium'. The RDA for sodium (for healthy adults) is just 1 tsp.  High sodium can cause edema (swelling due to fluid retention), thickening of the blood, and great thirst. It does not cause sleepiness.

    How can a healthy dinner be high sodium?  No, salty foods generally make people thirsty.
