Yeah, umeboshi helps reduce heat stroke, digest greasy food, & other benefits… but again, it’s not all great. Like you found out, it’s crazy high sodium.
But I think as long as you take enough water to reduce breakdown the sodium & keep working out, should be fine.
Oh also recommend eating grapefruits. Grapefruit can help those high sodium aka high blood pressure lower.
Note:
If you’re already taking a med for high blood pressure, plz avoid eating grapefruits.
