15. Berries Berries are a nutrient-dense powerhouse. In fact, berries are the second highest antioxidant-dense food on the planet. Not only are they bursting with flavour, but they help to reduce high blood pressure, and are some of the healthiest foods you can put in your mouth.
14. Dandelion Dandelion greens are a rich source of potassium, which helps to lower blood pressure. Dandelion root is used to cleanse the liver and improve kidney function so these organs can more effectively remove waste and decrease fluid retention…
13. Fish Fish is a delicious and nutritious food. Not only is fish packed with essential vitamins and minerals, it’s also a high-protein source of omega-3 fatty acids which helps to regulate blood pressure.
12. Avocado Avocados have more potassium than banana… the important mineral that regulates blood pressure by counteracting the effects of sodium.
11. Mushrooms Mushrooms are a good source of protein, fiber, and important nutrients. They are high in potassium making them a great option for people looking to reduce blood pressure.
10. Leafy Greens Leafy greens are packed with nitrates, potassium, fiber, and antioxidants… Which are all key factors. They also contain vitamins C and E, which protect the heart and blood vessels from damage.
9. Beans and Lentils According to renowned M.D. and nutrition educator Dr Michael Greger, beans and legumes should be eaten every day. Whether it’s black beans, chickpeas, edamame, lentils, pinto beans or peas, add these to your meals wherever you can.
8. Yogurt Yogurt is a good source of calcium and magnesium, which aid healthy blood pressure levels. But more interestingly, yogurt contains good bacteria or “probiotics”.
7. Seeds These tiny powerhouses pack a mighty punch when it comes to normalising blood pressure.
6. Nuts Nuts are packed with heart healthy fats that help you to stay fuller for longer, while also normalizing blood pressure, reducing inflammation, and improving cholesterol health.
5. Cruciferous Vegetables Cruciferous veges are superstars, and it’s all thanks to Sulforaphane, a naturally occurring compound found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and kale.
4. Flaxseed Flaxseed is a rich source of alpha-linolenic acid or (ALA), a plant-derived omega-3 fatty acid that’s known to reduce inflammation which is a fundamental top-level factor of hypertension and pretty much all disease.
3. Herbs and Spices Herbs and spices not only make food taste great. They are potent functional foods that can reign in high blood pressure, reduce oxidative stress, and keep the body working in harmony.
2. Beetroot Beetroot contains high levels of nitrates, which are naturally occurring compounds that trigger the production of nitric oxide in the body… which in turn lowers blood pressure by dilating and relaxing blood vessels.
1. Citrus Fruits Citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons, and limes are packed with vitamins and minerals that regulate blood pressure and improve heart health. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ▶️ More Videos You Might Like: 7 Kinds of Fish You Should Never Eat ► • 7 Kinds of Fish You Should Never Eat Top 7 Foods To Clean Arteries And Prevent Heart Attacks ► • Top 7 Foods To Clean Arteries And Pre… 5 Worst Fruits For High Blood Pressure ► • 5 Worst Fruits For High Blood Pressure Top 8 Worst Foods for High Blood Pressure ► • Top 8 Worst Foods for High Blood Pres…
