I’m not going to tell you to eat fruits or vegetables in order to lower your blood pressure.
I’ll
not mention fish, eggs or meat either.
This
is as what has been revealed in this revolutionary Japanese study is totally
different from the norm.
But
you absolutely must eat this daily if you want to lower your blood pressure and reduce your risk of a stroke and heart attack by up to 36%.
In
January 2016, a Japanese research team published a study in the journal Stroke that
concluded that people who skipped breakfast were more likely to suffer a stroke
than those who ate in the mornings.
They
first collected the breakfast eating habits of 82,772 Japanese adults, which
were recorded in 1995, and categorized them by weekly breakfasts:
•
0-2 per week
• 3-4 per week
• 5-6 per week
• 7 per week
• 3-4 per week
• 5-6 per week
• 7 per week
They
recorded all the cardiovascular events that occurred within their subjects over
the following 15 years and compared it with the breakfast statistics.
The
comparison clearly showed that those who never ate breakfast were:
•
Significantly more likely to suffer from a stroke than those who regularly or
always enjoyed it, and…
•
36% more likely to have a stroke that involved a cerebral hemorrhage.
A
previous study with 26,902 subjects published in a 2013 edition of the journal Circulation found
that people who skipped breakfast were 27% more likely to suffer a heart attack
than those who ate regular breakfasts.
So
why do breakfast skippers have such a high risk of stroke and cerebral
hemorrhage?
High
blood pressure increases the chance of strokes and heart attacks by up to six
times.
And
the authors of both the Japanese and American studies found that people who
skipped breakfast had higher blood pressure scores than those who consumed it.
So,
your number one health goal should be to lower your blood pressure, and eating
breakfast daily will get you closer to that goal.

Home - These Fruits and Vegetables Raise Blood Pressure
Everyone
knows that eating fruits and vegetables is the best thing for lowering blood
pressure.
And
that’s true – in most cases.
But
there is one particular case where specific fruits and vegetables can actually
raise your blood pressure by almost 5 points in two hours, and you must avoid
this at all costs.
In
a study from the Environmental Health Center at the Seoul National University
College of Medicine in Korea, scientists wanted to find out what effects
bisphenol A, a chemical used in most plastic containers and for lining food and
beverage cans, had on blood pressure.
They
published their study in the journal Hypertension.
The
scientists split their participants into three groups, one that received two
canned beverages, one that received two glass-bottled beverages, and one that
received one canned and one glass-bottled beverage.
They
then measured the participant’s blood pressure and heart rate two hours after
the consumption of each beverage and calculated their daily blood pressure
averages.
The
results were stunning! People who drank two canned beverages per day
experienced an increase of 4.5 mm Hg increase in blood pressure – this amount
was enough to push many people over the limit and have hypertension.
Several
previous studies also revealed similar results.
It’s
therefore essential that you only store fruits, vegetables and other types of
food from containers marked “BPA free.”
However,
this may not always be possible. Therefore, you would also need to take action
to lower your blood pressure naturally.

Home - These 7 Ingredients Slash Blood Pressure
When
we talk about the lowering of blood pressure or tackling other health issues,
we usually recommend foods to avoid.
Sometimes,
this includes cutting out fat or sugar etc.
But
some foods actually lower blood pressure. In today’s article, we’ll list seven
types of food that you should absolutely load up on to bring your blood
pressure down.
1. Potassium. Potassium works by increasing the
amount of aldosterone in your body which, in turn, forces your kidneys to
excrete more salt and water. In other words, while salt increases body fluid
and thereby blood pressure, potassium lowers salt, body fluid, and blood pressure.
Potassium-rich foods that can assist with this include banana, avocado, potato,
sun-dried tomato, soybeans, kidney beans, spinach, collard greens, kale, and
most dried fruits.
2. Magnesium. Magnesium serves as a natural calcium
channel blocker. It widens your arteries so that blood can flow smoothly
through them. Calcium channel blocking is precisely the effect that some blood
pressure drugs attempt to accomplish. Magnesium rich foods include collard
greens, spinach, kale, almonds, sunflower seeds, dark chocolate, soybeans, and
kidney beans.
3. Potassium with Magnesium. Research suggests that you can
achieve the maximum effect by combining potassium and magnesium. They seem to
support and strengthen each other, probably because they tackle two physical
mechanisms that underlie high blood pressure. The top food that combines the
two would be kale, which you can pan-fry as chips, bake in vegetable bakes, and
stir-fry with other vegetables- yum!
4. Nitric Oxide. Nitric Oxide also widens your arteries
so that blood can flow easily without putting pressure onto your heart to pump
harder. The best form is found in cold or half-raw foods, like beetroot and
celery. In fact, a recent review of 16 studies that comprised a total of 254
participants, it was demonstrated that the intake of beetroot juice reduces
blood pressure by 4-10 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) for several hours after
consumption.
5. Omega-3 fatty acids. Several mechanisms have been proposed
behind the blood pressure lowering effects of omega-3, but at this stage,
little agreement exists beyond the fact that it is effective. A recent
scientific review of 17 studies, with a total of 1,524 volunteers, showed that
most studies consider it to be effective. The best sources of omega-3 include
fish, olive oil, walnuts, and flaxseeds.
6. Allicin. This is an active ingredient in garlic. It is
produced when garlic is crushed or chewed. Adding garlic to all your food will
tackle the oxidative damage and inflammation that contributes to high blood
pressure. Your friends may avoid you because of your smelly breath, but you can
just eat plenty of parsley to counter the smell.
7. Pterostilbene. The mechanism via which it lowers
blood pressure is unknown, but there is evidence that Pterostilbene is effective. You can find it in
almonds, cranberries, blueberries, and bilberries. Berries on your morning
cereal or in your smoothies are fantastic.
