Bönor och soja kopplas till lägre risk för högt blodtryck

Svenska

En omfattande genomgång av globala studier visar att en högre konsumtion av baljväxter och sojaprodukter är förknippad med en minskad risk att utveckla högt blodtryck. Personer som åt mest baljväxter löpte 16 procent lägre risk att utveckla hypertoni, medan ett högt intag av soja minskade risken med 19 procent.

Analysen, som publicerats i BMJ Nutrition Prevention & Health, sammanställde data från 12 långsiktiga observationsstudier från USA, Europa och Asien. Forskarna granskade artiklar publicerade fram till juni 2025 och identifierade tydliga dos-responsmönster. Hälsofördelarna var som störst vid ett dagligt intag av cirka 170 gram baljväxter, vilket innebar en riskminskning på omkring 30 procent, och vid 60 till 80 gram sojaprodukter, vilket gav en minskning på 28 till 29 procent.

Childhood sugary drinks tied to higher adult blood pressure risk

A 25-year study of more than 25,000 U.S. participants found that regular consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and fruit juice starting in childhood is associated with increased risk of high blood pressure in adulthood. Researchers linked two or more daily servings of such drinks to a 52 percent higher risk compared with fewer than three servings per week. Swapping one daily serving for whole fruit was linked to lower risk.
