The metabolic signature of salt intake: a cross-sectional analysis from the SCAPIS-study
Lower salt intake was associated with a metabolic profile indicative of increased beta-oxidation, while higher salt intake was linked to lipid species previously implicated in atherosclerosis. These findings highlight potential metabolic pathways through which salt intake may influence cardiovascular health and merit further evaluation in longitudinal studies.
