Nitrite

upin humans1

1 study
  1. Japanese traditional diet increases nitrite in humans.

    “Plasma and salivary levels of nitrate and nitrite were higher at the end of the JTD period.”

    Human trial10-dayn = 25

    Dietary nitrate in Japanese traditional foods lowers diastolic blood pressure in healthy volunteers

Diastolic blood pressure

downin humans1

1 study
  1. Japanese traditional diet decreases diastolic blood pressure in humans (-4.5 mmHg, P=0.0066).

    “Diastolic BP decreased on average 4.5 mmHg during JTD compared to the control diet (P=0.0066)”
