The Impact of Salt on Blood Pressure: An Analysis among Healthy Individuals : A Review of Randomized Studies (English)
Abstract [sv]

Högt saltintag har traditionellt kopplats till ökad risk för hypertoni, särskilt bland vissa grupper. I detta arbete utforskas relationen mellan saltintag och blodtryck genom en systematisk litteraturgenomgång av randomiserade kontrollerade studier, med fokus på friska individer. Syftet är att utvärdera om och i vilken omfattning saltkonsumtion påverkar blodtrycksnivåerna hos denna population. Studien bygger på litteratursökning i PubMed där relevanta artiklar identifieras med hjälp av sökorden ((high-salt) OR (high-sodium)) AND ((hypertension) OR (blood pressure) AND (healthy).

En analys av 17 studier visar att effekten av saltintag på blodtrycket är försumbar eller obefintlig hos friska individer. Dessa resultat betonar behovet av att skilja mellan olika grupper avseende kostrekommendationer och pekar på att individuella skillnader, inklusive saltkänslighet, kan vara avgörande.

Diskussionen lyfter fram komplexiteten i förhållandet mellan salt och blodtryck och det är svårt att dra slutsatser om de långsiktiga effekterna av en hög saltkonsumtion. Det understryker att vikten av ytterligare forskning för att klargöra sambandet mellan saltkonsumtion och kardiovaskulär hälsa över olika populationer.

Abstract [en]

High salt intake has traditionally been linked to an increased risk of hypertension, particularly among certain groups. In this work, the relationship between salt intake and blood pressure is explored through a systematic literature review of randomized controlled trials, focusing on healthy individuals. The aim is to evaluate whether and to what extent salt consumption affects blood pressure levels in this population. The study is based on a literature search in PubMed where relevant articles are identified using the search terms ((high-salt) OR (high-sodium)) AND ((hypertension) OR (blood pressure) AND (healthy)).

An analysis of 17 studies shows that the effect of salt intake on blood pressure is negligible or nonexistent in healthy individuals. These results emphasize the need to differentiate between different groups regarding dietary recommendations and point out that individual differences, including salt sensitivity, may be crucial.

The discussion highlights the complexity of the relationship between salt intake and blood pressure, and it is difficult to draw conclusions about the long-term effects of high salt consumption. It underlines the importance of further research to clarify the relationship between salt consumption and cardiovascular health across different populations.
