How To Reduce High Blood Pressure: Eat Healthy Foods
We are what we eat! What we eat and drink has a significant effect on our blood pressure. Our aim should be to include lots of foods rich in calcium, magnesium, vitamins, fiber and potassium and to avoid foods and drinks which contain saturated fats, sodium, sugar, alcohol, caffeine and cholesterol. Let’s have a look at some ways how to reduce high blood pressure by eating healthily:
Hawthorn
Okay, I know it’s a drink, but it really can help in your battle against high blood pressure. Hawthorn dilates the arteries and improves the flow of blood, so lowering blood pressure. Use a mixture of leaves and flowers to make a tea. Place two teaspoonfuls in a cup and add boiling water. Leave to infuse for around twenty minutes before straining. Drink two or three cups of the brew per day.
TOMATOES
Tomatoes are one of the great foods that lower high blood pressure, they are rich in calcium and potassium, and contain vitamins A, C and E. Tomatoes also contain lycopene which is a powerful antioxidant that is reputed to lower the risk of heart disease. The antioxidants found in tomatoes can prevent LDL (bad!) cholesterol from oxidizing and sticking to the blood vessel walls, which would raise your blood pressure. Drinking tomato juice is a great way to enjoy tomatoes. If you own a juicer, make your own. If you have to buy tomato juice make sure it’s a pure juice with no added salt or sugar.
SPINACH
Spinach is rich in magnesium and helps prevent heart disease. It also contains folate which protects the body from homocysteine, an excessive amount of which can cause heart attacks and strokes. Cook for as little time as possible. Better still, eat raw in salads. Make sure you include plenty of spinach in your diet.
GARLIC
Garlic helps thin the blood and stops blood vessels clogging, so reducing blood pressure. Try chewing a clove or two of garlic each day. If you don’t want to lose all your friends you may prefer to take it in the form of a supplement.
BROCCOLI
Broccoli is full of nutrition. Not only is it high in potassium but it contains chromium that helps regulate blood sugar and insulin. Don’t over cook it. Place it in a pan with just enough water to cover it, that way it will retain more nutrients. Better still, steam it. When I’m preparing broccoli I always cut off a few florets and eat them raw. Try it, they’re delicious! When looking for ways how to reduce high blood pressure, broccoli really should be high on your shopping list!
THE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE REMEDY REPORT
I really wish I’d known about this a few years ago when I first discovered that I had high blood pressure; it would have saved me a lot of time and hassle. I can thoroughly recommend it.
The report is written buy a guy called Craig Anderson. What he did was to use himself as a “human guinea pig” to research ways to lower his own high blood pressure. The results of his research is The High Blood Pressure Remedy Report, which shows you how to normalize your blood pressure in three weeks or less, using a safe, drug-free, natural home remedy.
The report on its own is great value at $33.97, but when you consider that it comes with two free reports Lessons From The Miracle Doctors and 10 Deadly Health Myths Of The 21st Century worth $97 between them, it makes it fantastic value for money.
