DIFFERENCES IN POSTPRANDIAL HEMODYNAMIC RESPONSE ON A HIGH PROTEIN VERSUS A HIGH CARBOHYDRATE DIET

Objective: Several intervention trials have shown that diet composition affects blood pressure (BP). In this study we focused on postprandial hemodynamic changes on a high carbohydrate versus a high protein diet. Design and Method: In this randomized double-blind parallel group study, 53 adult untreated overweight subjects with mildly elevated BP (BMI 25-35 kg/m2, BP > 130/85 and
