Bananas as a Low-Sodium Dietary Staple

New England Journal of Medicine, 1958
THE ubiquitous distribution of sodium in foodstuffs has presented difficulties in the preparation of suitable dietary regimens for patients affected with salt-retaining conditions like congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver and nephrotic syndrome.

Avoidance of dietary sodium — a simple questionnaire

Medical Journal of Australia, 1988
Patients who are advised to reduce their sodium intake need intensive counselling and regular feedback on their progress. Urinary tests can indicate a high sodium intake, but the dietary source remains unknown until the patient has answered detailed questions.

Low dietary sodium in diabetes nephropathy

Medical Hypotheses, 2014
In a meta-analysis that investigated the effects of dietary sodium restriction in diabetes nephropathy, although blood pressure fell, there were significant increases in plasma renin and aldosterone levels. In this article, we hypothesise that in diabetic nephropathy, ACE-I or ARB treatment attenuates any rise in RAS hormones that might result from ...

Estimation of Dietary Sodium Intake in Children

Pediatrics, 1984
To examine the utility of nocturnal urine collections in the estimation of dietary sodium intake in children, 29 families who agreed to lower their dietary sodium intake to <65 mEq/d were studied. A total of 58 adults and 95 children collected urine specimens weekly or biweekly before and after being instructed in a dietary sodium restriction ...

Benefits of and Barriers to Dietary Sodium Adherence

Western Journal of Nursing Research, 2006
Failure to limit dietary sodium leads to thirst, large fluid weight gain, and poor outcomes in patients receiving hemodialysis. Perceived benefits and barriers may influence adherence; however, tools measuring these relationships are not available. This study's purpose, based on the health belief model, was to evaluate the reliability and validity of ...

Dietary effects of sodium alginate in humans

Food Additives and Contaminants, 1991
Following a 7-day control period, five male volunteers consumed a weight of sodium alginate corresponding to 175 mg/kg body weight for 7 days, followed by 200 mg sodium alginate per kg body weight for a further 16 days. Measurements before and at the end of the 23-day period of dietary supplementation showed that sodium alginate acted as a faecal ...

Mineralocorticoids, dietary conditions, and sodium appetite

Behavioral Biology, 1978
The present experiments show that desoxycorticosterone-, aldosterone-, and furosemide-induced sodium deficiency will elicit a sodium appetite in rats raised either on a high sodium diet or on a normal sodium diet. Rats were injected for 2 consecutive days with either desoxycorticosterone (5.0 or 10.0 mg/100 g body weight), aldosterone (0.5 and 0.75 mg ...

Dietary sodium restriction

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2014
Purpose of reviewRestriction of dietary sodium is recommended at a population level as well as for groups at high cardiovascular risk, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). This review addresses recent evidence for the protective effect of dietary sodium restriction in CKD patients specifically.Recent findingsSodium intake in CKD populations is generally ...

Low dietary sodium is anxiogenic in rats

Physiology & Behavior, 2011
It is commonly believed that salt intake is required solely to maintain mineralofluid balance, and that its excessive intake is pathophysiological. Yet, apart from the increased intake of sodium-rich foods caused by perinatal sodium loss, the determinants of human salt intake, its excess and persistence, are unknown.
