Nutrients--Amino Acids,
Blueberries--Improve Blood
Pressure And Artery Flexibility
In Women
Amino acids
Doctors measured seven heart-healthy
plant-based amino acids in the diets of 1,898
adult female twins and analyzed blood pres-
sure and artery flexibility. Women who got
the most arginine, cysteine, glycine, histidine,
leucine, tyrosine, and glutamic acid had
lower blood pressure in the main central
artery and in the extremities. Women who
got the most of the last three of these amino
acids had more flexible arteries compared to
women who got fewer amino acids in the
diet.
The benefits remained even after doctors
adjusted for lifestyle factors, medications, and
other nutrients the women consumed.
Discussing the findings, doctors said the
improvements in artery flexibility were similar
to those of someone who quits smoking, or
who begins taking omega-3 fatty acids, or the
difference between those with high blood
pressure or cholesterol and those with
healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

Blueberries
Postmenopausal women often develop high
blood pressure and arterial stiffness. In this
study, 48 postmenopausal women with pre-
or stage-1 hypertension took 22 grams of
freeze-dried blueberry powder per day or a
placebo.
After eight weeks, while the placebo group
had not improved, women who took the
blueberry powder saw systolic and diastolic
blood pressure decrease by 5.1 and 6.3 per-
cent, respectively. Artery stiffness declined by
6.5 percent. Nitric oxide, a molecular com-
pound that helps relax the blood vessels,
increased by 68.5 percent in the blueberry
group, which doctors believe helps explain
the blood pressure benefits with blueberries.
Earlier studies had found benefits in taking
blueberry powder, but with doses that
equaled as much as 11 cups of fresh berries
per day. This study dose equaled just one
cup of fresh blueberries per day.
