Controlled Observations on the Effect of Low Sodium Dietotherapy in Essential Hypertension

A. C. CORCORAN M.D.1; ROBERT D. TAYLOR M.D.1; IRVINE H. PAGE M.D.1

1 From the Research Division of the Cleveland Clinic Foundation and the Frank E. Bunts Educational Institute, Cleveland, Ohio.

The effectiveness and practicality of low sodium diets are tested in groups of in- and outpatients. The data indicate that roughly one-fourth with severe essential hypertension can respond favorably to prolonged restriction of sodium intake to less than 0.5 Gm. daily. The rice diet is found to be in effect a simple low sodium diet. Under the conditions of outpatient practice, low sodium dietotherapy is usually impractical and must be controlled by frequent analyses of urinary sodium.
