Effects of low-fat dairy intake on blood pressure endothelial function and lipoprotein lipids in subjects with prehypertension or stage 1 hypertension

摘要

ObjectiveThis randomized crossover trial assessed the effects of 5 weeks of consuming low-fat dairy (one serving/day each of 1% fluid milk, low-fat cheese, and low-fat yogurt) versus nondairy products (one serving/day each of apple juice, pretzels, and cereal bar) on systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP and DBP), vascular function (reactive hyperemia index [RHI] and augmentation index), and plasma lipids.
