Abstract
A high-sodium and low-potassium consumption pattern can increase the risk of hypertension. Excess sodium can cause fluid retention and increase blood volume, while potassium plays a role in regulating fluid balance and blood pressure. This study aims to determine the relationship between high-sodium and high-potassium consumption patterns and the incidence of hypertension at the City Community Health Center (UPT Puskesmas) in Bantaeng Regency. The research method used was quantitative analytic with a cross-sectional study approach. The study population was all 278 patients visiting the City Community Health Center (UPT Puskesmas) in Bantaeng Regency. The sample size was 74 residents of the community at the City Community Health Center (UPT Puskesmas). Purposive sampling was used. The research instrument used was a questionnaire, which was distributed to respondents. The Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) was used for sodium and potassium consumption. The results showed a relationship between sodium consumption and the incidence of hypertension (p=0.003 meaning Ha was accepted.The results showed a relationship between potassium consumption and the incidence of hypertension (p=0.001) meaning Ha was accepted. Researchers hope that this research can be used as a support or source of information to develop knowledge in the field of community health, especially in nursing, related to sodium and potassium consumption in reducing blood pressure in hypertension patients.
