Association between dietary total antioxidant capacity and hypertension in Iranian Kurdish women

A high antioxidant diet may help guard against the onset of hypertension in women.

This study ascertained the connection between preference for foods high in antioxidants and hypertension (HTN) prevention in women. Researchers matched dietary choices with blood pressure numbers among 5,067 Iranian women. 

Researchers noticed a trend of decreased incidence of hypertension in women with heightened consumption of antioxidant-containing foods. "We could suggest a diet rich in natural antioxidants as it may help prevent development of HTN," the authors recommended.
