The purpose of this study is to determine if high salt diet contributes to high nighttime blood pressure. The investigators will determine if high compared to low salt diet increases 24-hour blood pressure levels. The investigators will also determine if high salt diet affects blood vessel stiffness, cardiac output, and sleep apnea. The study will also determine how high salt diet affects the activity of certain genes related to control of blood pressure. A total of 60 participants will be enrolled in the study.
