Sodium ion are essential to maintain cell membrane osmolarity. Along with potassium, it maintains the electrochemical gradient across the cell membrane via the sodium-potassium pump, thereby aiding in nerve conduction and muscle contraction. It aids in transportation of nutrients in and out of cells, and even maintains the pH of the stomach aiding digestion.
