This research investigates the relationship between sodium intake and cardiovascular disease risk. By analyzing data from large international studies, the project aims to clarify optimal sodium levels for different populations and their impact on blood pressure and heart health.
Hypertension is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) globally, accounting for 25-35% of the population-attributable fraction.
Sodium (salt) intake is a key determinant of blood pressure, and reducing sodium intake has emerged as an important target for population-based interventions to prevent CVD.
However, there is considerable uncertainty about the optimal level of sodium (salt) intake that is associated with lowest CVD risk, and whether optimal levels differ for different po…
