Limiting sodium intake results in improved quality of life for patients with heart failure

Nutrition counseling and strictly limiting salt intake for one year in patients with heart failure resulted in improved quality of life and a slowing in the progression of the disease, but a study presented at the American College of Cardiology's (ACC) 71st Annual Scientific Session found reducing salt intake did not significantly reduce major adverse events or hospitalizations.
