Hypertension increases the risk for a variety of cardiovascular diseases, including stroke, coronary artery disease, heart failure, and peripheral vascular disease.
The increase in oxidative stress has been associated with the pathogenesis of hypertension.
Increase of blood pressure is due to an imbalance between antioxidants defence mechanisms and free radical productions.
Excessive production of reactive oxygen species reduces nitric oxide bioavailability leading to an endothelial dysfunction and a subsequent increase in total peripheral resistance.
Hypertension can cause few symptoms until it reaches the advanced stage and poses serious health problems with lifelong consequences.
Hypertensive patients are required to take drugs for life to control the hypertension and prevent complications.
Some of these drugs are expensive and may have adverse reactions.
Hence, it is timely to examine scientifically, complimentary therapies that are more effective and with minimal undesirable effects.
Nigella sativa (NS) and its active constituents have been documented to exhibit antioxidant, hypotensive, calcium channel blockade and diuretic properties which may contribute to reduce blood pressure.
This suggests a potential role of NS in the management of hypertension, and thus more studies should be conducted to evaluate its effectiveness.Erratum to “Nigella sativa and Its Protective Role in Oxidative Stress and Hypertension”dx.doi.org/10.1155/2013/253479
