Cranberries, often associated with urinary health, also possess significant heart health benefits due to their rich plant compound profile. Recent research indicates that daily consumption of cranberries can lead to improved blood vessel function, as evidenced by a clinical trial with 45 healthy men consuming freeze-dried cranberries. Improved flow-mediated dilation (FMD) results suggest cranberries promote arterial health and circulation, thanks to their high levels of polyphenols like proanthocyanidins, thereby contributing to lower blood pressure and reduced long-term heart disease risk.
Cranberries, known for urinary tract benefits, also boost heart health by improving blood vessel function and lowering heart disease risk, especially through their high polyphenol content.
In a clinical trial, 45 healthy men consumed 100 grams of cranberries daily, showing significant improvements in blood vessel function as measured by flow-mediated dilation.
