What we have so far
Replacing a quarter of the sodium with potassium cut stroke and death in a 21,000-person trial — the strongest hard-endpoint result in the whole sodium field.
This star is on the map because the show intends to take the question apart properly — the trials, how it is actually tested, whether the thing sold is the thing studied. That work is not done yet, and nothing here should be read as a conclusion. When the investigation is published it will appear on this page.
