A new research published in a medical journal shows that eating yogurt may help reduce high blood pressure. This research carried out by a team of scientists from USA and Australia confirms previous results. A new relief against high blood pressure?
Researchers examined the relation between yogurt consumption and blood pressure in people aged 62 on average who have or have not developed the disease. About 62% of the people in the sample had blood pressure considered to be high (at least 140/90 mmHg).
After eliminating several factors like cholesterol or blood sugar, the results show that in people suffering from hypertension, the consumption of yoghurt lowered blood pressure. However, the scientists reveal that this is a modest but statistically significant reduction in people with the pathology.
