Day 21 of the Cushing's Awareness Challenge: eHow doesn't know how...

A must read on another blog, Brain Tumors can make you Fat!, points out the problem with eHow's information on Cushing's Disease/Syndrome.

The title of your article is "How to Avoid Cushing's Disease."  So, in your expert opinion, how does reducing your salt intake prevent a disease that is caused by an overproduction of cortisol?  Could you please cite your source for your readers on what tells you avoiding salt will help a person avoid hypercortisolemia?
You don't want to miss this.
