The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that a marginally adequate intake of potassium, 30 mEq/day, is a contributing factor to salt-sensitive hypertension among African-Americans. We will also investigate whether potassium bicarbonate supplementation is able to attenuate any increase in blood pressure, and whether potassium supplementation has any beneficial effect on renal function and peripheral vascular circulation.

本研究的目的是检验这一假设，即钾的摄入量（30 mEq/天）是非裔美国人盐敏感性高血压的一个促成因素。 我们还将研究补充碳酸氢钾是否能够减轻血压的升高，以及补充钾是否对肾功能和外周血管循环有任何有益的影响。
