Public Policy and Dietary Sodium Restriction

Abstract: among children aged 2 to 8 years to rates among the same children 6 years later. We speculate that the increase here largely reflects the detection of most of these problems in middle childhood, rather than at younger ages.We agree that obesity is a risk factor for a range of problems later in life, and treatments for obesity aim to prevent these problems rather than minimize active symptoms. However, there is evidence to support that treating obesity at earlier ages is needed to stave off the adverse effects … Show more

“…Another strength of this study is the fact that the dietary intake of sodium in our cohort is very similar to that documented in the general population, both in Finland (13,14) and globally (22). We have also recently published dietary surveys on a subset of 817 FinnDiane patients, collected with a 3-day food record completed twice with a 2- to 3-month interval, describing a mean daily sodium consumption of 7.2 ± 2.0 g/day (23).…”

“…Even in the setting of renal impairment, the urinary excretion of sodium is largely maintained along with volume homeostasis, as a result of adaptations in residual nephrons. This has been suggested to be because sodium intake may be physiologically set (22). Second, our data are observational.…”
