BACKGROUND: Recommendations for low dietary sodium to HF patients has been debated in the past one to two decades. METHODS: This report presents a literature review of interventional studies from 2006 to 2015 investigating adult HF patients. RESULTS: The results of the neurohormonal outcome variables seem to be the primary consideration for recommending a low sodium diet to patients with HF. Most of articles in this review reported that 2.6-3 g/day of dietary sodium is effective for decreased BNP, renin, and aldosterone (neurohormonal) plasma levels in patients with HF. CONCLUSIONS: We have to provide the reason, effect, and amount of dietary sodium when providing dietary sodium recommendations to patients.
