We are all trying to improve pour health. Health is wealth. You will realize this as you get older. Since cardiovascular disease is still the #1 killer within the United States for men and women
There are foods which can lower your blood pressure. One food to consume is Spinach Spinach is rich in nitrates which improve cardiovascular health. In one study, participants who ate spinach daily had a seven percent reduction in blood pressure. Spinach contains a variety of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
I try to consume oranges at least three times a week. Oranges contain high concentrations of flavonoids, which play an important role in preventing cardiovascular disease. One study found that participants who ate oranges daily had reduced systolic blood pressure by ten points after six weeks compared to those who did not eat oranges regularly during this time period.
I enjoy beets all the time. I try to eat at least twice a week. Beets are root vegetables high in nitrates which can help lower blood pressure levels. In one study, participants who ate beets daily had a reduction in blood pressure of five points systolic and four points diastolic after just two weeks. Beets are very high in antioxidants which can protect your body against damage.
Lastly carrpts are also good for blood pressure. Carrots are root vegetables that contain high amounts of Vitamin A. Carrots also contain vitamin K and potassium, both of which play an important role in cardiovascular health. So you can see you can have a salad with all the three foods above.
Until tomorrow..
