Omega-3 fatty acids and blood pressure.
There is substantial evidence that omega-3 fatty acids reduce blood pressure, with a greater effect in hypertensive patients and those with high-normal blood pressure.

However, the magnitude of the blood pressure change can be increased by salt restriction or when omega-3 fatty aci...

The hypotensive effect of sodium restriction was found to be small and restricted largely to systolic blood pressure, which fell by an average of 3.6 mm Hg (range 0.5-10.0 mm Hg).

متن کاملDoes nicotinic acid (niacin) lower blood pressure?
Nicotinic acid (niacin) is a well-established treatment for dyslipidaemia - an important cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor.

Acute administration of immediate-release niacin may lower BP because of niacin's acute ...
