Summary

The study aims to study the effects of diatery nitrate in patients with hypertension and hypertensive kidney injury.

The study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded crossover trial. 14-20 patients with hypertension and CKD I-III will be randomized to receive either nitrate or placebo delivered in the form of beetroot juice.

Effect variables will be measured before and after a 2 week treatment. After a washout period of 14 days, the subjects are crossed over to the opposite treatment.

The study is terminated by measuring effect variables after the second treatment period.
