Altered dietary salt intake for preventing and treating diabetic kidney disease
Abstract: Although the studies are not extensive, this meta-analysis shows a large fall in BP with salt restriction, similar to that of single drug therapy. All diabetics should consider reducing salt intake at least to less than 5-6 g/day in keeping with current recommendations for the general population and may consider lowering salt intake to lower levels, although further studies are needed.

Furthermore, other main parameters, such as the BP, HbA1c, and urine protein, showed no significant improvement during the first observation year.…”
