High blood pressure causes early death from stroke and heart disease; the biggest killers in Australia. Australians eat too much sodium (in the form of salt) and not enough potassium which causes high blood pressure. This project will develop effective and feasible strategies to achieve optimal sodium and potassium intake. This has the potential to save thousands of deaths and hospitalisations, and healthcare costs. This will also strengthen my skills to lead population nutrition research.

高血压导致中风和心脏病的早期死亡;这是澳大利亚最大的杀手。澳大利亚人吃了太多的钠（以盐的形式），而没有足够的钾，导致高血压。该项目将制定有效和可行的策略，以实现最佳的钠和钾摄入量。这有可能挽救数千人的死亡和住院治疗，以及医疗保健费用。这也将加强我领导人口营养研究的技能。
