Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
In a randomised cross-over design, participants will consume a test meal containing 65mmol of sodium or a low salt control meal containing 5mmol sodium on 2 separate study days with a 7 day washout period in between treatments.

The test meal will comprise of 100ml of Reduced Salt tomato soup made up with 150mL water with 3.8g of added salt (65mmol NaCl sodium chloride). Participants are asked to consume the test meal over a 5 minute period.
