ny-based scientists investigated the effects of epicatechin dose on blood pressure measures using data from four meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials.
Results showed that the potential blood pressure lowering effects of epicatechin were linked to the dose consumed with higher doses producing greater reductions in blood pressure. A 25 mg dose of epicatechin per day was associated with significant reductions in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
Commenting on the potential mech
