It also helps muscles contract, keeps the kidneys working properly, balances acids and bases, manages how the body uses carbohydrates, and supports proper stomach function.
**Sodium chloride** is the main mineral found outside cells. It helps keep the right balance of fluids and electrolytes, controls water movement in the body, and helps maintain blood pressure. It is used to provide electrolytes and fluids, treat dehydration, manage metabolic acidosis, prepare for kidney dialysis, and treat certain types of diabetes.
