Background: Hypoxic pulmonary hypertension is a difficult disease to manage that is characterized by sustained elevation of pulmonary vascular resistance and pulmonary artery pressure due to vasoconstriction, perivascular inflammation, and vascular remodeling. Consumption of soluble-fiber is associated with lower systemic blood pressure, but little is known about its ability to affect the pulmonary circulation.
Methods: Mice were fed either a low- or high-soluble-fiber diet (0% or 16.
Scope: Effective strategies for tailoring dietary advice to individuals are urgently needed. The effectiveness of personalized nutrition advice delivered using a metabotype framework in improving dietary quality and metabolic health biomarkers compared to population-level advice is investigated.
Materials And Results: A 12-week parallel randomized controlled trial is performed with 107 healthy adults.
