  4. Salt and hypertension In 1952, Brookhaven's Lewis Dahl began his pioneering work connecting salt and hypertension. During 25 years of tests, he discovered that high salt intake was more dangerous in youth, and recommended that no salt should be added to baby foods. He also showed that a person's genetic background greatly affects their susceptibility to hypertension from salt.

  6. INTERSALT

  7. Yanomami IndiansRange of BP and impact of age on BP 90/60 BP AGE

  8. Jeremiah Stamler Father of Preventive Cardiology

  9. “The INTERSALT study results, which agree with the findings from other diverse studies, including data from clinical observations, therapeutic interventions, randomized controlled trial, animal experimentation, physiologic investigations, evolutionary biology research, anthropology research, and epidemiologic studies, support the judgment that habitual high salt intake is one of the quantitatively important, preventable mass exposures causing the unfavorable population wide blood pressure pattern that is a major risk factor for epidemic cardiovascular disease.“…… …………….Stamler

  10. “Ignoring the overwhelming scientific consensus on this issue…[is] supportive of positions adapted by special interests and comes at the expense of public health”.

  11. Limit salt intake to 1500 mg a day

  12. Institute of Medicine STUDIES SUPPORT POPULATION BASED EFFORTS TO LOWER EXCESSIVE DIETARY SODIUM INTAKE EVIDENCE SUPPORTS A POSITIVE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HIGHER LEVELS OF SODIUM INTAKE AND RISK OF HEART DISEASE, IS CONSISTENT WIH PREVIOUS RESEARCH BASED ON SODIUM EFFECTS ON BLOOD PRESSURE MAY 14, 2013

  13. Cardiovascular Mortality Doubles for Each 20/10mmHg Increase in BP 1 MILLION people studied

  14. Systolic Blood Pressure and Relative Cardiovascular Mortality Risk Relative Risk of Cardiovascular Death Relative risk of cardiovascular mortality at prehypertension (systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg) Cardiovascular mortality doubles for each 20 mmHg increase in blood pressure 135 155 175 115 Systolic Blood Pressure

  15. One billion • People with High blood pressure…..WHO • Nine out Ten People • do not Follow salt reduction…CDC • Salt Content of Processed food • unchanged…Multiple Sources

  16. Cardiac Hypertrophy From Fighting Hypertension

  17. Mitral Regurg From Hypertensive Cardiomyopathy

  18. Diastolic DysfunctionLessons From ADHERE(Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Registry) Over 5 Million Americans living with Heart Failure 250,000 Deaths per year 500,000 new cases per year 33% die within the first diagnosis Systolic function preserved in nearly half the patients Number One Reason for Hospitalization

  19. OSTEOPOROSIS FRACTURE Greater than combined risk of Breast and Ovarian Cancers Prostate cancer (1 in 3 women and 1in 5 men)

  20. STROKE

  21. Mechanisms of Dementia

  22. High blood pressure Increasesthe risk of memory loss by 600%

  23. Auto-Immune Disease If you incrementally increase salt, you get generation after generation of these TH17 cells ….Vijay Kucheroo
