Can Dietary Sodium Intake Be Modified by Public Policy?

[摘要] Sodium chloride holds a unique position in the annals of human existence and science (1). For thousands of years, salt's high value has made it the foundation of a society, a currency of trade, and cause for wars. Over the past century, sodium chloride has been the subject of intense scientific research to understand its role in human physiology and its impact on health. The latter has focused primarily on salt's role in BP regulation, an issue fraught with controversy, as documented a decade ago (2) and still evident in the scientific literature (3,4).
