Effects of chronic excess salt feeding. Enhanced hypertensogenic effect of sea salt over sodium chloride

Effects of chronic excess salt feeding. Enhanced hypertensogenic effect of sea salt over sodium chloride

L K DAHL et al. J Exp Med. .

Abstract

Female rats were fed diets containing either excess sea salt or excess sodium chloride for periods up to 14 months. The hypertension produced by sea salt was more pronounced than that caused by sodium chloride alone, although the average amount of sodium chloride contained in the sea salt feeding was slightly less. The ions involved in this incremental effect of sea salt were not identified.
