high salt diet

A high salt diet increases Joe's blood pressure.

Ossabaw Hogs also have adapted to the high salt diets and minimal availability of fresh water on the island.

Salt is sometimes used as a health aid, such as a high salt diet being used in the treatment of dysautonomia.

A high salt diet is likely to increase the risk of high blood pressure, which is associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.

Three experimental groups were created: a control group, a high salt diet group, and a high salt diet plus ubiquinol group.

Being overweight, a high salt diet and drinking alcohol heavily are the main known risk factors, according to a 1988 study at the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.

They have evidence from animal studies that a high salt diet can lead to high blood pressure, at least in strains bred to be salt-sensitive, but the relevance to humans is uncertain.

In comparison to the control group, the high salt diet increased oxidative stress (measured by the generation of superoxide anion in kidney tissue), increased hypertension, and induced albuminuria.

However, the high salt diet plus ubiquinol group exhibited results indicating significant renoprotection by ubiquinol, including decreased generation of superoxide anion (antioxidant effect), decreased urinary albumin, and amelioration of hypertension.

It is believed that since high salt diets cause water retention, it can lead to an increase (or at least preventing the decrease) of fluid within the inner ear, although the relationship between salt and the inner ear is not fully understood.
