Comparative Analysis of the Antihypertensive Effects of Red Palm Oil and Pumpkin Seed Oil in Nω-Nitro-L-arginine Methyl Ester-Induced Hypertensive Rats

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a prevalent cardiovascular disease with global health implications. Dietary interventions with local Nigerian food items offer promise in hypertension management, but the comparative effects of Red Palm Oil (RPO) and Pumpkin Seed Oil (PSO) are underexplored. This study investigated the effects of RPO and PSO supplementation on hypertension in male Wistar rats, focusing on onset of action and effectiveness.
