NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - People who swap their plate of pasta for a serving of lean red meat might shave some points off of their blood pressure, a small study suggests.
The findings, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, add to evidence that blood pressure dips when people replace some refined carbohydrates with lean protein. In an earlier study, the same researchers found that soy protein seemed to help control high blood pressure, also referred to as hypertension.
| Again, another study that tells us what we've already known for years. | |
