report on the latest developments in the field with new information in basic as well as in clinical sciences, Sodium in Health Diseases, covers both the physiology of sodium balance and how it relates to disease. Expertly written, its concise text examines ATPase, transport and receptor systems, and sodium balance as it relates to sex hormones, genes, and body fluid. This text will also examine disease based on animal models, genetic disorders, and the influence of sodium on pulse pressure, isolated systolic hypertension, and its blood pressure sensitivity. Sodium in Health and Disease will Â

Recent progress has led to a better understanding of the molecular structure of sodium channels, how they work and the mechanisms that restrict their expression to particular cell types. This book explains how these channels are modulated in various pathological states to enable the development of therapeutic strategies based on sodium channel restoration. The authors present the most current research on sodium channels and neuronal function. Brings together both the basic biology and biophysics with detailed consideration of the medical applications in chronic pain

Specifically aimed at individuals on a sodium-restricted diet, this nutritional counter addresses which supermarket products and fast food items have the lowest sodium contents and simplifies the selection process by limiting its listings to products with low-sodium values. In addition to identifying sodium content, all foods contained in the guide are analyzed by calories, carbohydrates, cholesterol, fat, saturated fat, trans fats, fiber, and sugar levels. Assistance in interpreting dining-out food labeling guidelines, advice on how to read nutritive value abbreviations and symbols, and in

Donald Gazzaniga, diagnosed with congestive heart failure, was on a waiting list for a heart transplantthe only effective medical treatment. Urged by his doctor to keep his sodium intake down under 1,500-2,000 mg. a day, Don headed for the kitchen and went to work. Aware that cutting table salt from your diet is the barest beginning of a true low-sodium menu, Don devised recipes that were 70% lower in sodium than those in other low-sodium cookbooks. The result? Dons name was removed from the transplant list; his doctors believe that his diet played a significant role. The No-Salt, Lowest-Sodiu

The phenomenon of sodium hunger was discovered by Curt Richter, the great American psychobiologist, over fifty years ago, and has since been the source of intense study by naturalists, psychologists, endocrinologists, physiologists, and neuroscientists. In this account, Professor Schulkin uses hunger for sodium as a model system in which to study how the brain produces motivated behavior. He offers a systematic account of the behavior of the sodium hungry animal and explores the endocrinological and physiological mechanisms that maintain sodium balance and then act on the brain to promote the
