Follow this link for more information on Cardio Perfect CE Clin. Populations eating mainly vegetarian diets have lower blood pressure levels than those eating omnivorous diets.
Epidemiologic findings suggest that eating fruits and vegetables lowers blood pressure.
The participants were given all of their foods to eat, and body weight and sodium intake were held constant. Blood pressure was measured at the clinic and by 24-h ambulatory monitoring. The fruits and vegetables diet also reduced blood pressure in the same subgroups, but to a lesser extent. The DASH diet lowered blood pressure similarly throughout the day and night. The DASH diet may offer an alternative to drug therapy in hypertensives and, as a population approach, may prevent hypertension, particularly in African Americans.
