ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking at whether a grape seed extract supplement, called Enovita®, can help people manage elevated blood pressure or Stage 1 hypertension. The study will involve adults aged 30 to 65 who have slightly high blood pressure (like a systolic reading between 120-139 mmHg) and who haven't taken blood pressure medications in the last three months. Over eight weeks, participants will take either the Enovita® supplement or a placebo (a non-active pill) to see how it affects their blood pressure and other health aspects, like mood and stress levels.
If you are interested in participating, you should be within the specified age range and meet the blood pressure criteria. It's important to note that those with more serious hypertension, diabetes, or certain other health conditions won't be eligible to join. Participants will need to attend follow-up visits and provide consent to be part of the study. This trial is not yet recruiting, but it aims to understand better how grape seed extract might be a helpful option for managing blood pressure safely.
