Research Indicates Almonds Could Contribute to Reduced Blood Pressure

Buzzline

A study analyzed by Verywell Health suggests that incorporating almonds into one’s diet may aid in lowering blood pressure levels, specifically diastolic blood pressure. A meta-analysis conducted in 2020, which included 16 randomized controlled trials with over 1,000 subjects, revealed a decrease in diastolic blood pressure averaging 1.3 mmHg due to almond consumption. Furthermore, a 2022 review encompassing 26 trials and more than 1,700 participants corroborated these findings with a notable drop in diastolic pressure. Almonds are rich in magnesium, potassium, fiber, and beneficial fats that could enhance vascular health. Evidence indicates that an intake of approximately 1.5 ounces, equivalent to about 35 almonds, may confer cardiovascular advantages.

00:00Eating almonds every day may help support healthier blood pressure.

00:03Research suggests almonds can have a particularly noticeable effect on diastolic blood pressure.

00:09A 2020 analysis reviewed 16 randomized controlled trials involving more than 1,000 people.

00:15It found almond consumption reduced diastolic blood pressure by an average of 1.3 millimeters of mercury.

00:22A separate 2022 review examined 26 trials involving more than 1,700 participants.

00:28That study also found a significant reduction in diastolic blood pressure.

00:33Experts believe several nutrients in almonds may contribute to the effect.

00:37These include magnesium, potassium, fiber, vitamin E, and healthy unsaturated fats.

00:43These nutrients may help blood vessels relax and support cardiovascular health.

00:48Almonds are also naturally low in sodium, an important factor for blood pressure management.

00:53Research suggests around 1.5 ounces, or roughly 35 almonds, may provide heart health benefits.

01:00However, people with tree nut allergies should avoid almonds.

01:04And unsalted or lightly salted varieties are recommended to help limit sodium intake.
