“What surprised us was that this is similar to responses seen after a meal high in saturated fats, which we know can be damage blood vessels in the long-term,” Dickinson said.

170mg sodium in 1 ounce serving of Original Pringles .. ive seen people consume whole cans in one sitting which equal about 7-8 servings ...

170 x 7 (to be lenient) = 1190mg of sodium

a deadly snack !

The comments section is particularily interesting--people really don't know what to think when they read something like this.

Thanks for posting, Prana.

Good link, although id have thought that it probably wasnt very accurate, in some individuals such as myself in the past the stress of even reading blood pressure made me anxious. I was pretty much always anxious due to adrenal fatigue.

The excess epinephrine constricts blood vessels, whos to say that some of the applicants werent allergic to the ingredients.

Interesting none the less and pretty worrying even though the long term effects arent known.

I feel pretty good at how much salt we've cut out of our diet. Every time you read anything about salt it's just worse and worse than the last thing you've read. Sad stuff that salt.

Ive been a lab rat in the same lab this salt study was done. Its my home town of Adelaide and the CSIRO have a big lab on Frome St. The assistants were shocked at how high my vo2max was and I told em what my diet is. The EXACT reply was 'Did anyone get the football scores on the weekend?'

Nice people but conditioned as you get.

Great study though, thanks for posting Prana.
