ABSTRACT In this systematic review , we discuss the scientific evidence about the effect of dietary intake of seeds and sesame derivatives on lipid profile and blood pressure ( BP ) of hypertensive and dyslipidemic individuals .
Effects of vitamin E on clinic and ambulatory blood pressure in treated hypertensive patients. Collaborative Group of the Primary Prevention Project (PPP)--Hypertension study.
A r and omized controlled open trial studied the effect of vitamin E supplementation ( 300 mg/day ) on clinic and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure ( BP ) in 142 treated hypertensive patients . After 12 weeks , clinic BP decreased whether or not patients were r and omized to vitamin E.  Ambulatory BP showed no change in systolic BP and a small decrease in diastolic BP ( -1.6 mm Hg , 95 % confidence intervals from -2.8 to -0.4 mm Hg ) , approaching statistical significance in comparison to the control group ( P = .06 ) . Vitamin E supplementation thus seems to have no clinical ly relevant effect on BP in hypertensive patients already under controlled treatment
