Bacterial-Induced Blood Pressure Reduction: Mechanisms for the Treatment of Hypertension via the Gut

Abstract excerpt

Hypertension is a major risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease. As more research into the gut microbiome emerges, we are finding increasing evidence to support that these microbes may have significant positive and negative effects on blood pressure and associated disorders.
