Sodium intake and hypertension.
In current diets, the level of sodium is very high, whereas that of potassium, calcium, and magnesium is low compared with the level in diets composed of unprocessed, natural foods. We present the biologic rationale and scientific evidence that show that the current salt intake levels largely explain the high prevalence of hypertension. Comprehensive reduction of salt intake, both alone and par...
متن کاملInteraction of fatty acid sodium salts with sodium deoxycholate.
Interaction of homologous fatty acids (C3-C18) with sodium deoxycholate was investigated. From NMR and ultrasonic results it was found that short chain homologues (up to C9) do not participate in the formation of mixed micelles with sodium deoxycholate. Fatty acid homologues with longer chains (starting with C9) form mixed micelles by "burying" hydrophobic chains in hydrophobic environment of a...
متن کاملSodium intake and essential hypertension.
This review briefly considers the hypothesis that a generous dietary sodium intake contributes to the development or maintenance of essential hypertension. Three lines of evidence are presented that are not mutually exclusive. Epidemiological studies examining sodium intake, prevalence of hypertension, and increases of blood pressure with age provide circumstantial support for the concept that ...
متن کاملEpithelial sodium channels and hypertension.
Hypertension is a major risk factor for heart attacks, stroke, and kidney failure. It is estimated to cause as many as 25% of all deaths in the United States, particularly for African Americans, in whom the disease is both more common and more severe. Essential hypertension is a multifactorial disorder influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Physiological studies have shown that t...
متن کاملPostmenopausal Hypertension and Sodium Sensitivity
It has been well established that women generally have lower incidence rates of hypertension than men at similar ages and these differences may vary with age. It also has been observed in many studies that after menopause, blood pressure (BP) increases in women to levels even higher than in men. The lack of estrogens may not be suggested as the only component involved in the development of post...
