• TITLE: Effects of Almond Milk on Body Measurements and Blood Pressure

  AUTHORS: Jozaa Zaidan Al Tamimi

  KEYWORDS: Almond Milk, Weight, Body Mass Index, Waist Circumference, Hip Circumference, Diastolic and Systolic Blood Pressure

  JOURNAL NAME: Food and Nutrition Sciences, Vol.7 No.6, May 30, 2016

  ABSTRACT: In recent years, the demand for almond milk and its sales has increased owing to consumers’ perceptions about its health benefits. Hence, we sought to measure the effect of almond milk on body measurements such as body weight, body mass index and waist and hip circumference, in addition to diastolic and systolic blood pressures. Thirty volunteers of both sexes participated in the study, with a mean age of 23.27 ± 6.20 years. The study was conducted over 4 weeks, and the results showed that daily substitution of one serving of dairy product with one cup (240 ML) of almond milk significantly decreased body weight, body mass index and waist and hip circumference, However, no effects were observed on blood pressures.
