[42] [43] The meat industry especially have developed and fine-tuned methods to decrease salt contents in processed meats without sacrificing consumer acceptance. [40] Research demonstrates that salt substitutes such as potassium chloride, and synergistic compounds such as phosphates, can be used to decrease salt content in meat products. [40]
A low sodium diet has a useful effect to reduce blood pressure, both in people with hypertension and in people with normal blood pressure. [7] Taken together, a low salt diet (median of approximately 4.4 g/day – approx 1800 mg sodium) in hypertensive people resulted in a decrease in systolic blood pressure by 4.2 mmHg, and in diastolic blood pressure by 2.1 mmHg.
Low protein diets of <0.8 g/kg/day have shown improved CKD management with reduced serum phosphorus, serum urea nitrogen and reduced protein in the urine. [ 19 ] [ 20 ] [ 21 ] A very low protein diet (0.28 g/kg/day) is not recommended due to the possibility of malnutrition.

Potassium closely resembles the saltiness of sodium. In practice, potassium chloride (also known as potassium salt) is the most commonly used salt substitute. Its toxicity for a healthy person is approximately equal to that of table salt (the LD 50 is about 2.5 g/kg, or approximately 190 g for a person weighing 75 kg).
The FDA’s draft of their voluntary initiative to reduce the amount of sodium—which is a major component of salt—in the U.S. food supply, updated on August 15, 2024, outlines the goals for ...
As long as you’re eating enough protein daily and resting plenty between workouts—you’re good to go, says Machowsky. So, hitting your daily protein goal is way more important than stressing ...
High dietary protein intake is not associated with kidney disease in healthy people. [320] While significantly increased protein intake in the short-term is associated with changes in renal function, there is no evidence to suggest this effect persists in the long-term and results in kidney damage or disease.
