N2 - Cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of death in the world and Mexico is not exception, since a great number of people suffer of hypertension and the use of synthetic drug for the control of this disease can cause in the organism diverse secondary reactions, such as: cough, taste perturbation, rash in the skin, among others. An alternative for the prevention and/or treatment of high blood pressure is the use of bioactive compounds obtained from natural sources (animal or vegetable) such as the antihypertensive peptides, since these can reduce the arterial pressure in the organism, through of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition which is the responsible in to alter the blood pressure in the organism. Due to the above-mentioned, already exist in the European market, in Japan and USA products diverse that contain tripeptides such as Valine-Proline-Proline (VPP) and Isoleucine-Proline-Proline (IPP) and these they have the capacity in reducing the arterial pressure in human. The aim of this review is to diffuse more the use of antihypertensive peptides as an alternative in the treatment of the arterial pressure.
