The results showed that the group that drank cabbage soup had an average decrease in systolic blood pressure of 2.5 mmHg. Which was more than the group that drank the root vegetable and fruit soup. And if eaten during the day, the decrease in blood pressure was increased to 3.6 mmHg. Dr. Zhang stressed that although the decrease in blood pressure may not seem much.
