Official Title: Monocentric STUDY, Randomised Double Blinded (Healthy Subjects, or Transversal (Patients With Gitelman Syndrome)

Brief Summary: Progesterone is needed to permit adaptation of the kidney to limit potassium loss in the urines. The investigators wonder whether progesterone or other adrenal hormon play the same role. The investigators will investigate surrenal hormone production in healthy subjects under a 7-day potassium depleted diet and in patients chronically hypokalaemic due to a renal loss of potassium.
