Abstract
Introduction: The positive impact of prunes on body measurements and blood pressure has been suggested in previous research.
Purpose: The purpose of this extensive meta-analysis and systematic review was to examine the effects of adult consumption of prunes on anthropometric parameters and blood pressure.
Methods: To identify relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) (till August 9th, 2024), databases from ISI Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed/Medline were searched. The current systematic review and meta-analysis covered 14 studies that met the eligibility requirements. The weighted mean difference was used to compute the effect size. The Cochrane Q test and I2 index were used to measure study heterogeneity. The random effects model was utilized to get the overall effect magnitude.
Results: The meta-findings analysis's showed that eating prunes had no appreciable effects on, body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.267), waist circumference (WC) (p = 0.562), fat mass (FM) (p = 0.840), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (p = 0.338), or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (p = 0.233). However, we observed significantly reduction in body weight (p < 0.001) after prunes consumption.
Conclusion: Our findings showed that the consumption of prune leads to a significant reduction in body weight, but the results indicated non-significant effects on blood pressure, BMI, WC and FM.
