A high blood pressure diet is one way to reduce your blood pressure safely and without needing to resort to debilitating drugs and their side effects.
In this article, I will share with you three dietary ways of reducing your blood pressure and overcoming hypertension.
Reduce Red Meat Studies have shown that those who eat a lot of meat are more likely to have high b.
p.
Does this mean that eating red meat leads to this condition and that consuming less of it will help you to lower it? It is difficult to say.
Nobody has proved causation and nobody is implying it.
It could simply be that when you reduce red meat in your diet then you normally replace it with vegetables or with white meat.
These contain less saturated fats and are generally better for your heart and circulatory system.
Potatoes Potatoes are like a wonder food group when it comes to lowering your b.
p.
They are rich in both potassium and magnesium.
These minerals are very important for maintaining a good b.
p.
It is not just a case of increasing how much of them you eat though.
You must also limit other minerals like sodium and calcium.
So don't just eat more potatoes and add a ton of salt to your food because that will totally negate the positive effects of the potatoes.
Spices And Herbs You probably already know that adding salt to your food can be dangerous.
Actually, a little salt is no bad thing but there is so much hidden salt in our foods that we can struggle to keep it under control.
Try to use more spices and herbs in your diet instead of salt.
Not only will they be able to replace salt and therefore reduce your sodium in many cases but many spices also have powerful b.
p.
lowering abilities.
