Dietary salt and hypertension

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1996
Sodium restriction is the most commonly used lifestyle modification for control of hypertension. Nevertheless, there is no consensus on the relative importance of salt in the development of hypertension, nor is the physiological mechanism(s) responsible for salt-induced elevations of blood pressure clearly understood.

Dietary salt and blood pressure

Preventive Medicine, 1983
Research evidence on the role of dietary sodium in the etiology and pathogenesis of hypertension is briefly reviewed. This matter is assuming new importance at present, given new data on the efficacy of normalization of blood pressure for adults with so-called "mild" hypertension (average diastolic 90-104 mm Hg), hence the need for safe nutritional ...

Dietary salt and essential hypertension

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1972
Abstract Dietary intake of sodium chloride was studied in 717 patients with essential hypertension and 819 unequivocally normotensive patients. In the normotensive group 21.2 percent (174 of 819) stated that they added salt to food before tasting it, whereas 22.7 percent (163 of 717) of the hypertensive group had this habit.

DIETARY SALT AND HYPERTENSION

The Lancet, 1980
It has been argued that hypertension in developed countries is largely or wholly the result of excessive salt intake. As a result there are substantial pressures to reduce salt ingestion. Although it is likely that extreme salt restriction will lower blood-pressure, this is not a practical possibility.

Dietary salt and blood pressure

Journal of Hypertension, 1991
We have previously shown that the association between salt intake and blood pressure is large and of substantial public health importance. Analysis of the average blood pressure and average sodium intake in different communities yielded estimates of the decrease in blood pressure for a given reduction in dietary sodium according to age and blood ...

Dietary salt and blood pressure

Nature Medicine, 1995
High salt intake is believed to have adverse effects on blood pressure levels in humans. Now, for the first time, it has been shown to increase blood pressure in chimpanzees (pages 1009–1016).

Aldosterone, organ damage and dietary salt

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2013
Summary Long‐term exposure to elevated aldosterone levels or activation of the mineralocorticoid receptors results in cardiac, vascular and renal tissue injury with mechanisms that are independent of blood pressure levels. This evidence has been obtained in experiments carried out in hypertensive animal models, and clinical studies involving patients

Role of dietary salt in hypertension

Life Sciences, 2006
Certain things have not changed since my colleague and I last reviewed the role of dietary salt in hypertension [Haddy, F.J., Pamnani, M.B., 1995. Role of dietary salt in hypertension. Journal of the American College of Nutrition 14, 428-438]. Over half of hypertensives are still salt sensitive, i.e., they respond to a high NaCl intake with a rise in ...

Increasing dietary salt alters salt taste preference

Physiology & Behavior, 1986
In previous studies with humans, moderate reduction of dietary sodium decreased preference for salty foods. It had been hypothesized that this occurred via reducing taste stimulation with salty foods. Taste function after increasing dietary salt (NaCl), either with or without increasing salt taste stimulation, was examined in two experiments.
