Gas is discharged from the intestine can not only spoil the smell of the air, but also have an effect on blood pressure, U.S. researchers reported. A small amount of hydrogen sulphide - a toxic gas produced by bacteria living in the human gut, is the cause of bad breath. Scientists conducted an experiment in mice, so that the gas also showed CSE enzymes produced in the blood vessels, causing blood vessels to expand and lowers blood pressure. According to the authors, this discovery will allow to develop new treatments for patients with blood pressure problems. Experts plan further work in this area. The study was published in the journal Science.
