Summary

In Romania, the diseases of the circulatory system account for 59.3% of deaths, representing the main cause of morbidity and mortality.

Barriers of current pharmacological treatments materialized in side effects and limited actions on risk factors increase the necessity of finding more effective, multi-target and less toxic therapeutic strategies. Considering the well-known benefits, natural compounds represent a very important source for drug candidates.

The latest in vitro and in vivo studies on Aronia melanocarpa (Michx.) Elliott have highlighted its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, anti-atherosclerotic, hypotensive, antiplatelet, lipid and glucose reduction properties, making it an excellent candidate for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and metabolic disorders.

The aim of this study is to comprehensive evaluate (in vivo) the Aronia melanocarpa bio juice, obtained from Romania on blood pressure levels and endothelial damage.
