										Dietary Patterns and Blood Pressure in Adults: A
Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of
Randomized Controlled Trials
Hypertension is a major risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease, stroke, and kidney disease. To lower blood pressure (BP), several lifestyle changes are recommended such as weight loss, exercise, and following a healthy diet. Investigating the effect of single nutrients may have positive results, but food is consumed as part of a whole diet, resulting in nutrient interactions. The aim of this systematic review and metaanalysis was to assess the effect of dietary ...

										Effects of a healthy Nordic diet on gene expression changes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in response to an oral
glucose tolerance test in subjects with metabolic syndrome: a SYSDIET sub-study
Background: Diet has a great impact on the risk of developing features of metabolic syndrome (MetS), type 2
diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). We evaluated whether a long-term healthy Nordic diet (ND) can modify the expression of inflammation and lipid metabolism-related genes in peripheral blood
mononuclear cells (PBMCs) during a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test ...
