简要总结
This survey is designed to investigate the effect of highland barley β-glucan supplementation on the regulatory of blood pressure, gut microbiota and cardiovascular risk fators in subjects with hypertention.
详细描述
Highland barley β-glucan belongs to the group of prebiotics and has been found to be associated with multiple health benefits. However, its protective role in subjects with hypertension are remain unclear. This study aims to examine the effect of 12-week prebiotics supplementation on blood pressure management in subjects with hypertension. By understanding the mechanism by which prebiotics exert the beneficial effects, we can better control the rising prevalence of hypertension, which is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases.
