The activation of these enzymes significantly reduced arterial plaque formation in an animal model.Read More: atherosclerosis, Blueberries, glutathione, superoxide
Resveratrol Reverses Adverse Blood Pressure Side Effect of Birth Control Pills
Estradiol is the form of estrogen released each month as an egg ripens. Women are exposed to excess levels due to imbalances caused by high stress, digestive problems, or from taking ERT to suppress hot flashes. Additionally, low steady-state estrogen that is supplied in birth control pills, induces abnormal physiologic exposure to estradiol. New research shows that such ongoing estrogen exposure induces free radical damage to a key area of the brain that controls blood pressure, resulting in high blood pressure. The researchers also showed that resveratrol could stop the free radical damage in the brain and prevent the elevation in blood pressure.Read More: Birth Control, ERT, estradiol, high blood pressure, Resveratrol, superoxide
