They kept the two groups of mice, one limited in the consumption of salt, and the other not. The researchers then compared the brain activity of exposed mice of the two groups. In addition, the brain was examined in those rodents which do not give salts for three days and then allowed to drink water supplemented with salt libitum.

It turned out that brain   rodents, which are deprived of salt, produced by certain proteins Which tend to show the manifestation of addiction to drugs such as the heroin   or nicotine . The study was demonstrated one instinct - hydrochloric hunger .

In other words, brain   He believes that received the desired amount of salt before it leaves the stomach and using the blood gets to the brain.
