Abstract EN
The purpose of this study has been to determine the effect of acute consumption of noni and chokeberry juices vs.
energy drinks on blood pressure, heart rate, and blood glucose.
The subjects divided into 4 groups, which consumed three portions of noni or chokeberry juices (30 mL or 200 mL, respectively) and energy drink (ED) or water (200 mL) at one-hour intervals.
All participants had their blood pressure (BP), both systolic and diastolic BP (SBP and DBP), as well as heart rate (HR) and blood glucose (BG), measured.
Consumption of noni juice caused a significant decrease in SBP and DBP of 5.0% and 7.5%, respectively, while, the consumption of chokeberry juice slightly decreased only DBP by 3.6%.
On the contrary, consumption of three portions of EDs caused a significant increase in DBP by 14.7%.
The BG of participants consuming noni juice decreased by 7.3%, while the consumption of EDs increased BG by as much as 15.8%.
Acute consumption of noni juice contributed to a significantly decreased SBP, DBP, and HR as well as a mild reduction of BG.
Consumption of chokeberry juice caused only a slight reduction of DBP.
Contrary to juices, EDs consumption resulted in an increase of blood pressure (especially DBP) and blood glucose.
The results of the study showed that noni juice may be effective in lowering blood pressure and blood sugar levels, but there is a need to continue research on the long-term effect of this juice.
