Summary

This study looks at whether taking ketone supplements can help older adults (ages 60-85) avoid the negative effects of a high-salt diet, such as higher blood pressure, blood vessel problems, and kidney stress. Researchers will give 30 healthy volunteers a high-salt diet with or without ketone supplements and measure changes in blood pressure, blood vessel function, and inflammation. The goal is to find a simple way to protect the heart and kidneys in people who eat more salt than recommended.
