Study was conducted in hypertensive patients
to determine the effects of flaxseed supplementation on
body mass index (BMI),
blood pressure,
and total cholesterol levels in patients with hypertension.
Methods
Fully blind study, 12 weeks
age range of 35 to 70 years,
Randomized to 3 groups receiving
10 g (n = 45)
30 g (n = 45) of flaxseed supplementation
Placebo (wheat) (n = 45)
12 weeks
Checked for other variables such as diet and physical activity
Results
For the 30-g group
Mean systolic BP started at 148.38
Over the 12 weeks it decreased by an average of 13.38 mmHg
Ended up at an average of 135.00
(p = 0.001)
(compared to a 1.72 unit increase in the placebo group, wheat)
Still in the 30g group,
30 g group DBP started at 86.20
Over the 12 weeks it decreased by an average of 5.6 mmHg
Down to an average of 80.6 mmHg
(p = 0.001)
(compared to a 2.39 unit increase in the placebo group)
For the 10g group
SBP reduced by 9.86 mmHg
DBP reduction in 10g group, 6.69
BMI For the 30 g group
BMI decreased by 0.86 units
(compared to reduction of 0.06 units in the placebo group)
The mean BMI decreased from 29.19 to 28.33
BMI value (p less than 0.001).
Total cholesterol
30 g group, decreased by 20.4 units
(compared to 11.86 units in the placebo group)
Mean total cholesterol decreased from 210.73 to 190.33
(p = 0.032)
Mechanisms
Flaxseed is rich in good fats, antioxidants, and fiber
(Lignan content, which is a powerful antioxidant)
Improves plasma lipid profile, plasma trans-fatty acid concentrations, atherogenicity, glycemia, and pro-inflammatory compounds
Flaxseed is one of the richest plant sources of omega-3
fatty acids and ALA, (alpha-linolenic acid, the oil that forms 41% of the total weight of a seed)
