Summary

This pilot study is testing whether a Bifidobacterium probiotic supplement can help lower blood pressure in 30 middle-aged Chinese adults with untreated hypertension. Participants will take the probiotic for 12 weeks, and researchers will monitor their blood pressure and other health markers. The goal is to see if this approach is promising enough for a larger trial.
