A research team delved into the relationship between high-fructose intake and hypertension, discovering that high levels of fructose intake are a significant risk factor for elevated blood pressure. This is a concerning revelation, considering the prevalence of high-fructose foods in modern diets. Furthermore, the team explored the impact of two specific probiotic strains, Bifidobacterium lactis M8 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus M9, in reducing blood pressure. These probiotics, derived from human breast milk, were found to be highly effective in mitigating hypertension in a high-fructose-induced elevated blood pressure mouse model.
