Health Benefit: Lower the risk of heart disease

The Research: 
Numerous trials have shown that an increased intake of polyphenols (including Blackcurrant polyphenols) lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease, through an improvement in
- blood pressure, 
- lipid levels in the blood
- biomarkers such as Nitric oxide (a potent vasodilator),  Vascular Inflammation and Endothelial function (endothelium: the inner lining of blood vessels).

The Results:  
- In a long-term intervention trial (12 weeks), 150 individuals with high levels of blood cholesterol were given anthocyanins (320 mg/day) or placebo. The results observed significant increases in the HDL-cholesterol (“good’ cholesterol) concentrations and decreases in LDL cholesterol (“bad” cholesterol) levels.
