盐替代品对心血管健康影响的研究进展

Research Progress on the Impact of Salt Substitutes on Cardiovascular Health

心血管疾病(CVD)在21世纪初期已成为全球过早死亡和发病的主要原因,而预防和控制高血压是阻止心血管疾病发生、发展的核心措施之一。既往大量研究已表明减少食盐摄入可以降低并控制血压,食用盐替代品——即富含钾或其他类似成分(如MgCl2,MgSO4和CaCl2等)可以作为一种低成本、非药物性降压措施,但其对心血管疾病的发生、发展及与预后仍有待进一步研究。现就盐替代品对心血管健康影响的研究进行综述,以期为预防和控制心血管事件提供更具参考价值的信息。

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has become the leading cause of premature death and morbidity in the world at the beginning of the 21st century, the prevention and control of hypertension is one of the core measures to prevent the occurrence and progression of cardiovascular disease. Previous studies have shown that reducing salt intake can lower and control blood pressure. Salt substitutes, which are rich in potassium or other similar ingredients (such as MgCl2, MgSO4, and CaCl2, etc.) can be used as a low-cost, non-pharmacological antihypertensive measure, but their impact on the occurrence, progression, and prognosis of cardiovascular disease still need further studies. This article reviews the effects of salt substitutes on cardiovascular health to provide more valuable information for the prevention and control of cardiovascular events.
