Sodium ion absorption inhibitors, sodium ion excretion accelerators, and preventive and therapeutic agents for diseases resulting from excessive intake of common salt

摘要

An sodium ion absorption inhibitor, a sodium ion excretion accelerator and an agent for preventing and treating a disease caused by excessive common salt ingestion, each of which comprising a metal salt (excluding sodium salt) of lambda-carrageenan as an active ingredient, can excrete excessively ingested common salt outside the body positively and safely, and particularly have excellent action in excreting the sodium ions into feces.
