Herbs and spices at a relatively high culinary dosage improves 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure in adults at risk of cardiometabolic diseases: a randomized, crossover, controlled-feeding study.

In the context of a suboptimal US-style diet, addition of a relatively high culinary dosage of mixed herbs and spices (6.6 g · d-1 · 2100 kcal-1) tended to improve 24-h blood pressure after 4 wk, compared with lower dosages (0.5 and 3.3 g · d-1 · 2100 kcal-1), in adults at elevated risk of cardiometabolic diseases.This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03064932.
