Whilst analysing the data from the study, they found men who ate it often saw a drop in their blood pressure levels.
Professor Kanouch added: “Men who did not habitually eat sunomono had significantly higher blood pressure, even though their weight and BMI were the same. We believe it could be promoting growth of good gut microbiota, but we would need more studies to confirm that.
“We are not sure how the vinegar causes these health benefits; increasing vinegar consumption doesn’t lead to further improvement in blood pressure. “However, diet is one of the easiest things to change! I want everyone to know that even occasionally eating sunomono could make a difference in blood pressure.”
Furthermore, there are a couple of caveats to note in regard to this study and seaweed.
