120 villages in China were studied. The average salt intake was found to be 14gms/day. In 60 villages the salt was reduced in the diet. It was found that reducing salt resulted in less excretion of Protein/Albumin in urine. Similarly the blood pressure also showed downward trend in those people taking less salt.
THIS STUDY WAS PRESENTED IN AMERICAN SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY CONFERENCE HELD AT PHILADELPHIA IN NOVEMBER 2014.
