We examined psychological stress these CVD in healthy, young men women with confirmed family history hypertension. A total 52 normotensive, healthy adults (26 26 women) aged 18–29 years (21.4 ± 0.3) participated laboratory session to examine reactivity following consumption. All participants had normal levels. Blood pressure (BP), heart rate, serum cortisol CRP plasma were collected. Men administered displayed an additional increase systolic BP response stressor (p < 0.05). Stress interacted sex alter cortisol, but not These results may shed light sex-specific pathways that associate CVD. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
