Clinical Trial Summary

Randomized controlled trial with two parallel branches (experimental product and placebo), double blind and unicentric with which it is intended to evaluate the efficacy of the product under investigation against placebo on blood pressure of normotensive subjects or with hypertension grade I without Pharmacotherapy. The subjects that meet the selection criteria will make a total of five visits to the research laboratory and perform the tests that were pre-established in the protocol. Later, a statistical analysis will be carried out with the variables measured in the study to obtain results.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Assessing a change of blood pressure five times	blood pressure is measured with a holter	Blood pressure measurements will be taken with a Holter on five separate occasions and for 24 hours each day. The measurements will be made at baseline and at 14, 28, 56 and 84 days of consumption of the product.
Secondary	body composition	Dual X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)	Two densitometries will be performed. One at the beginning of the test, in basal conditions and another at the end of the test after 84 days of taking the product.e beginning and at the end
Secondary	body composition	Bioimpedancetry	A record of body composition will be made five times during the 84 days of consumption. Measures will be taken at baseline, at 14 days, 28, 56 and 84 days.
Secondary	blood samples	Glucidal metabolism and lipid metabolism. It was measured in milligrams per deciliter.	Blood samples will be taken twice, once at baseline, at the beginning of the trial and once at the end after 84 days of use.
Secondary	Subjective sensation of product consumption	5-point hedonic scale. There are five points, being 1 I do not like and 5 I like it a lot. A scale will be passed through paper.	Subjects will complete the hedonic scale four times. at 14, 28, 56 and 84 days of consumption of the product under study.
Secondary	physical activity	accelerometer	An accelerometer will be placed twice on the subjects. The first time at baseline and the second after taking 84 days of consumption of the product under study.
Secondary	Control of dietary intake	Diet source	A nutritional registry will be carried out. The nutritional intake of for days in two periods will be collected. One record at the beginning and another at the end, that is, six days.
Secondary	quality of life questionnaire	questionnaire: WHOQOL-BREF	The cuestionnaire will be taken twice, once at baseline, at the beginning of the trial and once at the end after 84 days of use. The subjects have to answer 26 items on a scale of one to five, being one never and 5 always.
Secondary	Gastrointestinal well-being evaluation	Gastrointestinal quality of life questionnaire. The subjects have to answer 36 items on a scale of one to five, being 1 all the time and 5 never.
