This project investigates how dietary potassium intake affects blood pressure and the underlying mechanisms in the kidney and blood vessels. By using various advanced techniques, it aims to identify optimal potassium levels for hypertension management and understand vascular responses to dietary changes.
As the primary risk factor for the onset of cardiovascular disease, hypertension is a major contributor to premature death and disability.
High dietary sodium (Na+) consumption is often considered a primary culprit for hypertension, but evidence exists that increasing dietary potassium (K+) consumption may lower blood pressure (BP).
However, a number of studies in humans indicate that higher K+ intake is not always beneficial for blood pressure effects that the host lab recently confirmed in ro…
