摘要：It is generally accepted that ingestion of sucrose in large quantities elevates blood pressure (BP). Less certain is whether starch and other refined carbohydrates (CHO) have similar effects. Using spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive control rats (WKY), we show that glucose, fructose, and starch fed to rats either in solution or in dry form elevate BP to a similar degree as sucrose. The changes in BP brought on by various refined CHO were greater in SHR than in WKY. The elevations did not consistently correlate with differences in body weight, amount of dry matter or fluid intake, the quantities of sodium and potassium ingested, or to changes in the various blood chemistries examined. We conclude that other refined CHO (glucose, fructose, and starch) like sucrose raise BP significantly. This effect on BP is rapid (within days) and reversible, at least to some extent.
