Ginger Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisNational dietary guidelines from several countries (eg, the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia) recommend the consumption of spices to lower sodium intake.The National Institutes of Health (NIH)–funded Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) healthy eating plan replaces salt with spices and herbs as a means to lower blood pressure without medication.3Diacova Tatiana (2026)Spices Beyond Antioxidants: From the Gut to the Brain
Ginger Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisIt was also demonstrated that salt intake was associated with regional metabolic activity in the insula and orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) areas of the brain.The administration of capsaicin (chili pepper) in the Li et al.3Diacova Tatiana (2026)Spices Beyond Antioxidants: From the Gut to the Brain
