I have been diagnosed with low sodium levels. I have been using ibuprofen for some time because of painful osteoarthritis and have been told to stop using this. I have tried other pain killers for painful osteoarthritis especially in my neck and paracetamol makes me feel sick.

How can I increase my sodium levels naturally. Some say electrolytes but they normally contain potassium which can lower salt levels. I have started using soya sauce and my last blood test said my salt levels were increasing.
