In your body? Well Sodium is an essential part of life. It's entrance into cells is what causes your nerves to be functional. Without Sodium, you probably wouldn't live very long. That is why, whenever you are in the hospital for extended periods of time, they give you an IV of Saline. This is to prevent rigor in your muscles. Without sodium, you couldn't move, eat, drink, breathe or live.
low sodium in your blood (hyponatremia) leads to swelling of cells as nothing is pulling the water out of the cells and into the capillaries to be dealt with. It can be dangerous if it affects the brain as swelling here can be very dangerous!!
it can also lead to kidney/ liver failure etc...
I am not a doctor, but low sodium levels is referred to as hyponatremia. I would speak with a doctor or go to government web sites like nih.gov (national institute of health). Overly general questions on the web are not a good place to be looking for answers about health.
you get a sodium deficiency. you lose energy and cannot function properly. you also may become anemic because a lot of foods/drinks that have iron also have sodium. Good nutrition is important i hope you stay healthy.
Your heart will stop beating. But sodium is in a lot of food, not just salt. So a deficiency isn't likely. However, if you are fasting for some reason, some salt may be useful. Don't forget about potassium either.
