pH-sensor GPR68 plays a role in how dietary fibre lowers blood pressure in a preclinical model of hypertension - PubMed
Dietary fibre lowers blood pressure (BP) via short-chain fatty acids, acidic metabolites released from fibre fermentation by bacteria in the large intestine. This acidic microenvironment may activate ...

There are guidelines for fibre intake (eg pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38586958/)
Yes the amounts of fibre are correct, the diets used in mice were extreme, reusing samples from a previous paper (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32093510/) however we have data across several human populations

Recommendations for the Use of Dietary Fiber to Improve Blood Pressure Control - PubMed
According to several international, regional, and national guidelines on hypertension, lifestyle interventions are the first-line treatment to lower blood pressure (BP). Although diet is one of the ma...

Look forward to continuing the conversations from Australia!
I’m off to UKE in Hamburg today and then the Max Planck Institute in Berlin on Tuesday
For now, safe travels everyone!
