Listed below are 6 easy choices you can make to control blood pressure by simply eating better:
- Monounsaturated Fats - Increasing consumption of products with monounsaturated fats, such as olive oil, in your diet can greatly diminish your risk of high blood pressure and may even eliminate the need to take medication to control the situation.
- Potassium Intake - Decrease potassium intake to 2,400 milligrams or less on a daily basis.
- Vitamin C - Increase consumption of products containing Vitamin C. This may mean a daily vitamin supplement (make sure to buy quality supplements!) or be part of an increased consumption of fruits, such as oranges
- Fruits and Juices - Increase consumption of juices, fruits (especially bananas) and whole grain based cereals to counteract high levels of potassium found in other foods and in your body. Important note: juices are good in moderation. There are lots of juices on the shelves of your local grocery store that contain seriously high amounts of sugar. Walk right by these and instead look for ones that have no sugar added. (Also keep in mind that fruits contain natural amounts of sugar.)
- Omega-3 Fatty Acids - Increase consumption of omega-3 fatty acids that are commonly found in cold-water fish. These acids are proven to reduce high-blood pressure as well as lower your cholesterol.
- Whole Oats - Increase consumption of whole oats help to control your high blood pressure. Additionally, they also have positive affects on cholesterol and blood sugar levels.
