@statesdj @mitpress I don’t know of any convincing evidence that greater than 1 mmol (23 mg per day) is required for life & the populations that eat 1 to 5 mmol per day don’t have an increase in BP after second decade of life

[Edward Roccella @edroccella]

@spjuraschek These are observational data, no intervention(s), not causal. The reason for differences in MAP are fodder for discussions, but are important in our quest to understanding determinants of risk/disease.

@hvanspall Years ago, mentors found me. Didn't realize it at the time, then morphed into the role. Guidance was enormous and grateful, continues even after they passed away. My advice, be yourself, mentors who matter, will find you.

@jbrianbyrd Depends on what is put on top of it, i.e. heavy cream, sugar galore, otherwise ok.
