salt and sweaty activities

My blood pressure is too high. I read somewhere that this is because my body cannot get rid of salt efficiently enough. If sweat (perspiration) is salty then would sweaty activities like jogging help?

Welcome to the SDMB, frank cowling. Were you refering to the article from amongst Cecil Adams’ classics: Should I completely eliminate salt from my diet?

If so – it would be best to consult with your doctor about lowering your sodium intake, not trying to sweat it out.
