Therefore, this study was designed to assess the association between different kinds of protein intake (animal and plant protein) and BP.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n Data were collected from Isfahan Healthy Heart Program. We performed a cross-sectional study among 9660 randomly selected Iranian adults aged \u226519-year-old that they were selected from three large Iranian regions in 2007. A simplified validated 48-item-food frequency questionnaire was used to assess dietary intake including all kinds of protein. Systolic and diastolic BPs were measured in duplicate by trained personnel using a standard protocol. Multivariable regressions were applied to assess the relationship between protein intake and BP levels and the presence of hypertension (HTN).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n More frequent consumption of animal, plant, and total protein intake were inversely associated with BP in a crude model (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.001); however, after adjustment for potential confounders this relationship remained only for plant protein (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.04). The risk of HTN occurrence decreased in the highest quintile of total and plant protein consumption by 19% (odds ratio [OR] = 0.81; confidence interval [CI]: [0.65\u20130.96];\n P<\/jats:italic>\n for trend = 0.004) and 18% (OR = 0.82; [CI: (0.67\u20130.94];\n P<\/jats:italic>\n for trend = 0.03), respectively.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n More frequent protein
