Multiple nutritional studies have recognized that there are a number of Nutrition supplements that may help prevent High Blood Pressure (High BP). Combining these Blood Pressure supplements with medications, regular exercise, and diet and lifestyle modification provides an effective strategy in maintaining a Healthy Blood Pressure.
The Natural Blood Pressure (BP) Management formula is a powerful mix of blood pressure regulating compounds that combines several nutritional ingredients in one easy to use supplement. The active ingredient consist of 1700 mg of Peption® C12 peptide, 150 mg of MegaNatural®-BP Grape Seed (Vitis vinifera) Extract and 50 mg of PomElla® Pomegranate(Punica granatum) Extract.
The dairy protein casein is a natural source of C12 peptide. C 12 peptide functions as a natural inhibitor of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme. The Angiotensin Converting Enzyme increases the concentration of Angiotensin, which is biochemical compound that acts as a constrictor of the blood vessels. The enzyme-inhibiting effect of C12 peptide may aid in the management of Healthy Blood Pressure.
A study conducted at UC Davis has raised awareness about the potential benefits of using Grape Seed extract to prevent High Blood Pressure (High BP). The study observed both male and female participants identified as having Metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is distinguished by a number of risk factors present in the individual, such as, increased fat tissue accumulation in and around the abdomen, abnormal cholesterol and triglycerides profile, high blood pressure, high fibrinogen and cardiac C-reactive protein level, certain hormonal imbalances, etc. The medial drop in blood pressure detected in the group of Grape Seed extract recipients was 12 mm.
Available for the first time in the Natural Blood Pressure (BP) Management formula is a patented Grape Seed extract that contains a novel ratio of uniquely structured polyphenols.
A study published in the Clinical Nutrition journal in 2004 reviewed the effect of Pomegranate juice on Carotid Artery thickness and High Blood Pressure Pomegranate juice was found to reverse atherosclerotic plaque formation and to decrease Blood Pressure..
As mentioned earlier, an important factor in the management of Healthy Blood Pressure is achieved by suppression of the Angiotensin Converting Enzyme. Pomegranate juice has not only been shown to decrease High Blood Pressure (High BP) by suppressing this enzyme, but also to restore healthy function of the endothelium (inner vascular layer).
Magnesium effects on maintaining Healthy Blood Pressure have been researched by multiple studies. One study showed that a 365 mg dose of Magnesium a day was effective in lowering High Blood Pressure in patients with a mild to moderate form of hypertension. The study highlighted the synergistic action of beta-blockers and Magnesium and their positive effect on reducing High Blood Pressure in the standing and supine position.
Magnesium opposes the biochemical property of calcium to initiate muscle contraction. In that respect, it could be considered a “natural calcium channel blocker”. Pharmaceutical grade calcium channel blockers are well known as a group of medications used in the treatment of High Blood Pressure. This and other conclusions imply that Magnesium effects can work in conjunction with blood pressure reducing medications to maintain Healthy Blood Pressure.
In 1991 the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition published a double-blind crossover study that demonstrated that taking Omega 3 Fish oil for 8 weeks was successful in decreasing elevated Blood Pressure in individuals 60 years of age and older.
In 1993 the scientific publication, Archives of Internal Medicine, published a study suggesting that supplementation with more than 3 grams of Omega 3 Fish oil may clinically reduce High Blood Pressure. A meta-analysis of 31 trials published in the journal Circulation in 1993 demonstrated that there is a dose-dependent Blood Pressure reducing effect of Omega 3 Fish oil. This effect may be more prominent in High Blood Pressure patients with significant atherosclerotic changes and elevated cholesterol.
The Blood Pressure reducing effects of Omega 3 Fish oil are traced to the supplement’s ability to aid the relaxation and widening of the vascular walls as well as optimization of the certain hydrodynamic blood properties.
A handful of animal and human studies have demonstrated that the amino acid Taurine may have Blood Pressure reducing effects. People with High Blood Pressure are likely to have higher than normal epinephrine levels compared to subjects with Healthy Blood Pressure. Researches demonstrated that Taurine dilates vascular walls by increasing production of endorphins, which results in lowering High Blood Pressure.
