10 Benefits of Royal Jelly
Royal Jelly Benefit #9: Lowers Blood Pressure
High blood pressure may manifest as chest pains and vision problems. Eating certain foods can help lower it, including royal jelly, which seems to have the ability to regulate blood pressure. The main blood pressure lowering ingredients found in royal jelly consist of short chain amino acids, which are peptides. These are the building blocks of protein and affect the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE).
Royal jelly acts as an ACE inhibitor. ACE is a powerful restrictor of blood vessels and by its inhibition, it can dilate and reduce hypertension. Once royal jelly is digested, it releases 11 different peptides that can lower blood pressure.
