An interventional study of Beauty Drink and Placebo in Hypertension, sponsored by Chung Shan Medical University. Completed at 1 site in Taiwan. Open to participants aged 20 Years to 70 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2021-08-30.

This report assesses the effect of supplementation with gamma-aminobutyric acid on blood pressure among people with mild hypertension. Overall, "Beauty Drink" consumption for 8 weeks could successfully reduce mean diastolic and systolic BP through the suppression of ACE linked to downstream suppression of angiotensin II formation, which further decreases the sympathetic outflow leads to hypertension.
This report assesses the effect of supplementation with gamma-aminobutyric acid on blood pressure among people with mild hypertension. Fifty subjects with systolic blood pressure (SBP) between 120 and 159 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) between 80 and 99 mm Hg were randomized to ingest 2 bottles of "Beauty Drink" or placebo per day for 8 weeks of a stage. In addition, anthropometric measurements (blood pressure, body weight, body fat) and blood biochemical markers including fasting blood glucose (FBG), albumin, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), HDL-C, LDL-C, creatinine (Cr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), AST, ALT were examined every four weeks.

Subjects receive two bottles of "Beauty Drink" per day for 8 weeks of a stage. Anthropometric measurements such as blood pressure (systolic blood pressure \[SBP\] and diastolic blood pressure \[DBP\]), body weight, body fat, waistline, hips, and blood biochemical parameters including FBG, albumin, TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, Cr, BUN, AST, and ALT were measured every four weeks.
Subjects receive two bottles of placebo of similar appearance per day for 8 weeks of a stage. In addition, anthropometric measurements such as blood pressure (systolic blood pressure \[SBP\] and diastolic blood pressure \[DBP\]), body weight, body fat, waistline, hips, and blood biochemical parameters including FBG, albumin, TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, Cr, BUN, AST, and ALT were measured every four weeks.
The changes of blood pressure of the subjects (SBP and DBP)
values change of systolic and diastolic BPs between before to after 8 weeks
Time frame: 8 weeks
