Another example is a tumor that produces excess aldosterone, which just like renin, leads to fluid retention.

另一个例子是肿瘤的生长也会产生过多的醛固酮，一种类似于肾素的物质，会导致液体的积存。

High aldosterone is associated with increased inflammation, Chronic kidney disease, Osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease.

高醛固酮水平会增加体内炎症，导致慢性肾病、骨质疏松症以及心血管疾病。

This suggests that people actually following the WHO guidelines are chronically raising their aldosterone.

也就是说，遵循世卫组织关于盐摄入量建议的人们，他们体内的醛固酮长期处于较高水平。

Now, an important hormone that helps regulate potassium reabsorption or secretion in the kidneys is aldosterone.

所以，肾脏中有一种重要的激素可以帮助调节钾的重吸收和分泌，这就是醛固酮。

Aldosterone has it's purpose, but it's not a hormone you want to regularly have high levels of.

醛固酮有其作用，但在人体中，这种荷尔蒙的水平不能太高。

Aldosterone is part of a hormone family or axis which work together and are called the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.

醛固酮属于一特定激素家族或激素轴的一部分，这些激素共同作用，被称为肾素-血管紧张素-醛固酮系统。

An important hormone that helps regulate potassium reabsorption or secretion in the kidneys is aldosterone.

肾脏中一种帮助调节钾重吸收或分泌的重要激素叫醛固酮。

But, as I mentioned earlier, this renin angiotensin aldosterone system is stimulated by low salt intake.

但是，正如我之前提到的，低盐饮食会导致 RAA 系统活跃。

The diagnosis of hyperaldosteronism is mainly done by measuring levels of renin and aldosterone.

醛固酮增多症的诊断主要通过测定肾素与醛固酮的水平来完成。

Less aldosterone floating around in the blood causes the body to start dumping sodium from the blood into the urine.

血中醛固酮减少使得尿钠排出增多。
