[Nutrition and arterial blood pressure level in an organized population]
Abstract:
A total of 1563 males, aged from 20 to 59 years, engaged in scientific-pedagogical activity were under study. Relationship between the nutrition parameters and arterial blood pressure level was established by multiple step-by-step regression analysis considering the main risk factors and age. Dietetic correction conducted during 3 years has resulted in the lowering of arterial blood pressure below the borderline level of arterial hypertension in 24.6% of the subjects, while in the control group normalization of arterial blood pressure was recorded only in 6.8% of the subjects with arterial hypertension (p less than 0.01). The highest effect on the arterial blood pressure lowering was produced by the body mass diminution due to a long-term dietetic correction and increased percent of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the ration.

Blood Pressure
The average BP in an adult is typically around 120/80 mmHg (millimeters of mercury). In this measurement, the numerator (120) indicates the systolic pressure, which is the pressure in the arteries during the contraction of the heart's ventricles as blood is expelled. The denominator (80) represents the diastolic...
