What the fuck will it take to write up a protocol on this? This earlier research wasn't good enough so you had to repeat it? No mention of amounts so this was totally useless. God, the stupidity and waste of resources.
Pomegranate juice consumption for 3 years by patients with carotid artery stenosis reduces common carotid intima-media thickness, blood pressure and LDL oxidation Aug. 2008
And this one from 2006:
Regular pomegranate juice administered to hypertensive patients caused a significant drop in blood pressure [26], a reduction in carotid plaque development [27] Aug. 2006
And the latest here:
Effects of pomegranate juice on blood pressure: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
In
this study, researchers systematically review and meta–analyze
accessible proof from randomized placebo–controlled trials (RCTs)
researching the impacts of pomegranate juice intake and blood pressure
(BP). The present meta–analysis recommends consistent benefits of
pomegranate juice intake on BP. This evidence recommends it might be
prudent to include this fruit juice in a heart–healthy diet.
- A comprehensive literature look in Medline and Scopus was completed to distinguish qualified RCTs.
- A meta–analysis of qualified reviews was performed utilizing a random–effects model.
- Quality assessment, sensitivity analysisand publication bias assessments were led utilizing standard methods.
- Quantitative information synthesis from 8 RCTs indicated significant decreases in both systolic [weighed mean difference (WMD): –4.96 mmHg, 95% CI: –7.67 to –2.25, p < 0.001) and diastolic BP (WMD: –2.01 mmHg, 95% CI: –3.71 to –0.31, p = 0.021) after pomegranate juice intake.
- Consequences for SBP stayed stable to sensitivity investigations.
- Pomegranate juice diminished SBP regardless of the duration (>12 wks: WMD = –4.36 mmHg, 95% CI: –7.89 to –0.82, p = 0.016) and <12 wks: WMD = –5.83 mmHg, 95% CI: –10.05 to –1.61, p = 0.007) and dose consumed (>240 cc: WMD = -3.62 mmHg, 95% CI: –6.62 to –0.63, p = 0.018) and <240 cc: WMD = –11.01 mmHg, 95% CI: –17.38 to –4.65, p = 0.001, pomegranate juice per day) whereas doses >240 cc provided a borderline significant impact in lessening DBP.
