1 Analyzing the Connection Between Age, Diet, and Hypertension An Annotated Bibliography Mary Slocomb Craven Community College ENG 112-MWB1 Instructor Quincey Foley November 03,2023

2 Abstract Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. Hypertension has been on the rise, with roughly half of all American adults having been medically diagnosed with high blood pressure. While heart disease and hypertension are not the same thing, hypertension is a significant risk factor in the development of heart disease. Since the two have a connection, it’s valuable for individuals to have an overall knowledge of what they can do to minimize their risk of developing high blood pressure. Most people live their lives daily without considering what they consume. A poor dietary lifestyle can have consequences. As someone who became diagnosed with hypertension, it’s important to share some research on the effects that everyday foods and age may have on hypertension.

3 Analyzing the Connection Between Age, Diet, and Hypertension An Annotated Bibliography Calliope, S. R., & Samman, N. C. (2019). Sodium content in commonly consumed foods and its contribution to the daily intake. Nutrients , 12 (1), 34. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu12010034 Rosario Calliope Sonia , Doctor at National University of Jujuy: San Salvador de Jujuy, AR and Norma Samma, Associate Professor (Faculty of Biochemistry, Chemistry and Pharmacy) worked together on a study to determine effects of salt on hypertension. The study was aimed at artisanal foods, fast foods, and street foods. “ The average and range values were as follows: Street Foods 520 (R: 74-932); Fast Foods 599 (R: 371-1093) and Artisanal Foods 575 (R: 152-1373) mg Na/100 g. Thus, general sodium content is high, which means that the consumption of a serving from most of the studied foods leads to an individual exceeding the recommended daily intake values. “(2019). The researchers pointed out that over the years, salt intake has increased as well as hypertension. Due to the link between the two salt and hypertension, it is important to educate the consumers to read food nutritional labels and encourage consumers to choose foods with a lower sodium content. This scholarly article stresses that individuals are overconsuming on salt based off the World Health Organizations recommendations. Liu, Q., Chiavaroli, L., Ayoub-Charette, S., Ahmed, A., Khan, T.
