Eastern diet takes on hypertension: can a 3-Month meal plan lower blood pressure?
NCT ID NCT07735091
First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether a 3-month dietary program, called the Eastern Blood Pressure-Lowering Diet, can improve blood pressure in Chinese adults with hypertension. About 800 participants from workplace canteens will either receive standard hypertension care or also get specially designed lunches, low-sodium salt, and app-based support. The main goal is to see if the diet reduces resting systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to standard care alone.
