Abstract in brief

  • The study shows that reducing dietary sodium intake significantly lowers blood pressure in people with resistant hypertension, with decreases observed in both office and ambulatory measurements.
  • Lower salt intake increased plasma renin activity and decreased indicators like brain natriuretic peptide, suggesting a reduction in blood volume as a result of salt restriction.
  • The findings suggest that high dietary sodium contributes to resistant hypertension, and reducing salt should be a key part of managing this condition.]

@kidney_boy @jake_griner @thebyrdlab referred me to this study a while back. Individuals in DASH were not that hypertensive. If you look at folks w higher BPs, more dramatic effect of Na restriction. https://t.co/Fd9UnCFMdV
