For anybody doing this seriously be careful. High salt/protein and low water sounds like a recipe for all kinds of issues.
For example extremely high water low salts can cause brain swelling and death.
And before that, you lose your balance, are vomiting and have diarrhea after you eat/drink something, and have seizures. Then your kidneys shut down.
The week in the hospital on IV fluids and dialysis recovering was not pleasant.
