Experts tried to answer the question of how salt accumulates in the skin and muscle tissue affects the general condition of the body.. In a study involving 200 volunteers, it was found that excess sodium chloride increases blood pressure and can cause the development of hypertension, according to Pannochka, an Internet publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old.. net All study participants were diagnosed with minor changes in blood pressure, which was increased. Scientists have decided to test the theory that excess salt in the skin and muscles affects blood pressure.
Volunteers were divided into two groups. The first group received spironolactone (a diuretic and drug for the treatment of heart failure), the second group received a placebo. Note that spironolactone removes excess fluid from the body along with salts. Scientists measured the salt levels in the skin and muscles of volunteers before starting therapy at the end of the study.
While taking spironolactone, the majority of the blood pressure returned to normal. This is probably due to the presence of interstitial stores of salt in muscle and epithelial tissue, which affects blood pressure..
There is another theory. Spironolactone removes excess fluid from the vessels, which reduces pressure.
