Study Arms (3)

group/arm C (control group)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Group C in the third stage (30 days) continued drug use with no change in diet and no mineral supplementation.

Dietary Supplement: group/arm C (control group)

group/arm D (diet group)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Group D in the third stage (30 days) received an optimal-mineral-content properly balanced diet enriched in food with high zinc content.

Dietary Supplement: group/arm D (diet group)

group/arm S (supplementation group)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Group S in the third stage (30 days) received zinc supplementation as one capsule containing 15 mg of Zn taken orally once a day in the morning, two hours after antihypertensive drug administration with no change in diet.
