The aim of the present study was to examine whether dietary salt restriction guidance is beneficial for dietary salt restriction and lowering of home blood pressure in patients with diabetes with excessive salt intake. We performed an intervention trial of 37 people with type 2 diabetes and excessive salt intake. National registered dietitians provided dietary salt restriction guidance to each patient at the start of the study. All participants were instructed to perform triplicate morning and evening home blood pressure measurements using home blood pressure telemonitoring system. Daily salt intake at 2 months and 6 months was significantly lower than that at baseline; the difference was 0.8 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.2–1.4, p = 0.009] g and 0.7 (95% CI: 0.1–1.3, p = 0.009) g, respectively. Morning systolic blood pressure at 2 months and 6 months was significantly lower than that at baseline; the difference was 2.7 (95% CI: 0.2–5.1, p = 0.034) mmHg and 5.8 (95% CI: 0.5–11.1, p = 0.034) mmHg, respectively. This intervention study revealed, for the first time, that dietary salt restriction guidance provided by a national registered dietitian is beneficial for reducing daily salt intake and home blood pressure in people with diabetes with excessive salt intake.
