A Research Laboratory had investigated on how safe alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is in human body. In their first experiment, subjects with mild hypertension and high normal BP ingested bread with fourteen grams of common blended oil or ALA enriched oil for twelve weeks. The oil test contained 2.6 grams per 14 grams of alpha-linolenic acid. The subjects followed strictly controlled meals throughout the study period.
Systolic BP was notably lower in the alpha-linolenic acid group compared to the control group after taking the test diet for four, eight and twelve weeks. Diastolic BP was notably lower in the alpha-linolenic acid group than in the control group after taking the test diet for twelve weeks. In their second experiment, they evaluated how safe it is to take high amounts of ALA; particularly increased ALA has something to do with the oxidation of our body as well as blood coagulation.
High-normotensive, mildly hypertensive and normotensive subjects take bread that has 42 grams of the test oil or the control oil for four weeks. There was no significant difference noted in the high sensitive level of C-reactive protein, lipid peroxide level, activated thromboplastin time or plasma prothrombin time between the two group subjects. There were no abnormal changes observed after the test diet consumption on urinalysis or blood test, and no adverse effect considered to have been stimulated by the control oil or test oil in both group experiments. These results conclude that alpha-linolenic acid has an antihypertensive effect with no unfavorable effect in subjects either with high normal BP or mild hypertension.
After some researches and evidence from the experiments, it has been discovered that fish oil could as well significantly decrease high blood pressure levels. Even though the precise way of the effect is up till now to be discovered, experts believe that the anti coagulant and anti inflammatory factors found in Omega 3 fatty acids are useful in this regard. Even University of Connecticut Health Center published a paper that states that Omega 3 supplements benefit people who are suffering from blood pressure.
The Omega 3 EPA that is rich in fish oil helps to thin the blood and produce anti inflammatory eicosanoids. The thinning effect helps blood to circulate more efficiently throughout our body. After thirty-one trials by the Medical School of Harvard and seventeen trials by Johns Hopkins School, researchers have discovered that fish oil has the ability to reduce diastolic and systolic blood pressure. The healing rate is also faster with high intake of omega 3 fish oil. However, the most interesting in this field is that fish oil consumption could also dramatically lower hypertension. The benefit of taking Omega-3 fatty acid is it has no adverse effect on people with normal BP.
In some cases, Omega 3 fish oil supplements are the best substitutes that are available with a well balanced content of necessary ingredients and have the same of effects of taking an actual fish directly. However, it is important to keep in mind that you have to carefully select your fish oil supplement by asking a physician, to get the best advice and result. |
