Change in blood pressure in those taking and not taking anti-hypertensive medications. In participants taking anti-hypertensive medications (n = 8) at baseline, 10 weeks, and 20 weeks, systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased from 135 ± 8 to 130 ± 12 to 126 ± 10 mm Hg and 80 ± 8 to 77 ± 9 to 77 ± 5 mm Hg, respectively. In participants not on anti-hypertensive medications (n = 13) at baseline, 10 weeks, and 20 weeks, systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased from 137 ± 11 to 134 ± 14 to 132 ± 12 mm Hg and 82 ± 5 to 80 ± 7 to 78 ± 7 mm Hg, respectively. Error bars indicate standard deviations.
