Default High Fat Diets & High Blood Pressure

High Fat Diets & High Blood Pressure



One of our members passed along this interesting experiment:

"In a study of healthy young women, one group ate a high fat fast food breakfast while another group ate a healthy balanced one. Two hours later the women performed a stressful task.

The fast food group didn't fare so well and their blood pressure readings went haywire from the stress. The healthy eaters fared fine.

This "inflammatory response" happens at all times of the day after high fat meals."
