A pooled data analysis of the available evidence finds that dietary salt substitutes lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, and death from all causes and cardiovascular disease.According to a pooled data analysis of the available evidence, dietary salt substitutes lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, and death from all causes and cardiovascular disease.
Salt substitutes, which replace a proportion of sodium chloride with potassium chloride , are known to help lower blood pressure. Blood pressure, which is measured in mm Hg, is made up of two numbers: systolic—the higher number that indicates the force at which the heart pumps blood around the body; and diastolic—the lower number that indicates arterial pressure when the heart is filling with blood.
According to the pooled data analysis, salt substitutes lowered blood pressure in all the participants. The overall reduction in systolic blood pressure was 4.61 mm Hg and the overall reduction in diastolic blood pressure was 1.61 mmHg. A pooled data analysis of the results of five of these trials involving more than 24,000 participants showed that salt substitutes lowered the risks of early death from any cause by 11%, from cardiovascular disease by 13%, and the risks of heart attack or stroke by 11%.
