Foods That Lower High Blood Pressure

If you want to maintain a normal healthy blood pressure, there are certain foods you should avoid, and certain foods you should include in your diet as much as possible. This video focuses on foods that prevent hypertension — that is, high blood pressure — so that you feel better and live longer.

Leafy greens These contain potassium, which that helps your body get rid of excess sodium, or salt, which, in turn, helps keep your blood pressure down. Kale is especially good but all the following help keep your blood pressure in the normal range.

* Romaine lettuce
* Arugula
* Turnip greens
* Collard greens
* Spinach
* Swiss chard

All of these are especially beneficial when you dress them with olive oil, which is a healthy fat. Olive oil contains polyphenols, which are inflammation-fighting compounds that can help lower blood pressure.

Certain fruits Berries are rich in natural compounds that contribute to a healthy blood pressure level. Blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries are especially good if you combine them with oatmeal, granola or fat-free plain yogurt, which are also blood pressure healthy-foods. Kiwi fruit, which contains more vitamin C than a same-size serving of orange slices is another option, as are peaches and nectarines. Avocado, which many people don’t realize is actually a berry, is another heart-healthy food that’s great in salads. Bananas, which are high in potassium, are an appetizing (and inexpensive) option.

Broccoli, bell peppers, beets and sweet potatoes Beets are high in nitric oxide, which can help open your blood vessels and lower blood pressure. Broccoli, bell peppers and sweet potatoes provide lots of helpful calcium, magnesium, and potassium.

Seeds, nuts and herbs Sunflower, pumpkin, or squash seeds can be eaten as snacks. Add herbs and spices like basil, cinnamon, thyme, rosemary to your entrees when you can. Garlic, a staple in many dishes, helps reduce hypertension by increasing the amount of nitric oxide in the body. Pistachios decrease peripheral vascular resistance, or blood vessel tightening, and heart rate.

Beans These are a versatile, meatless source of protein that you can add to side dishes, soups, and entrées. One cup of white beans provides 13% of the calcium, 30% of the magnesium, and 24% of the potassium you need every day.

Certain fish dishes Salmon and mackeral high in omega-3 fatty acids, which can lower blood pressure, reduce inflammation, and lower triglycerides. Tilapia is extremely low in environmental toxins like mercury and PCBs that raise blood presssure, while trout contains needed vitamin D.

Pork tenderloin Generally, you should stay away from meat, but lean cuts of pork provide the meaty taste you may crave without overload your diet with unhealthy saturated fat.

Dark chocolate A 2015 study found that eating dark chocolate helps prevent cardiovascular disease. The study suggests you can have up to 100 grams per day.

Dark chocolate is great with yogurt or fruits like as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries, as a healthy dessert.

Quinoa This high-protein whole grain has a mild yet nutty flavor, contains a variety of health-protecting phytonutrients along with an impressive amount of magnesium. It’s gluten free, and you can use it as a replacement for rice or noodles. Added benefit: it cooks in less than half the time of brown rice.

How To Reduce Blood Pressure | How To Prevent Blood Pressure | How To Lower High Blood Pressure | Lifestyle | Diet

Hey, guys! This weeks video is about high blood pressure and how you can prevent getting it with simple yet effective lifestyle changes. Healthcare professionals refer to high blood pressure as the silent killer and for a good reason! High blood pressure increases risks of many diseases and shortens your life significantly.

WHAT IS HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE:
Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg) and is given as two figures:

Systolic pressure – The pressure when your heart pushes blood out.
Diastolic pressure – The pressure when your heart rests between beats.

As a general guide:
High blood pressure is considered to be 140/90mmHg or higher (or an average of 135/85mmHg at home)

Ideal blood pressure is considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg

Low blood pressure is considered to be 90/60mmHg or lower.

A blood pressure reading between 120/80mmHg and 140/90mmHg could mean you’re at risk of developing high blood pressure if you don’t take steps to keep your blood pressure under control.

HOW TO PREVENT HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE:
High blood pressure can often be prevented or reduced by eating healthily, maintaining a healthy weight, taking regular exercise, drinking alcohol in moderation and not smoking.

SALT & DIET:
Cut down on the amount of salt in your food and eat plenty of fruit and vegetables. The NHS Eatwell Guide highlights the different types of food that make up our diet, and shows the proportions we should eat them in to have a well-balanced and healthy diet.

Salt raises your blood pressure. The more salt you eat, the higher your blood pressure. Aim to eat less than 6g (0.2oz) of salt a day, which is about a teaspoonful.

Eating a low-fat diet that includes lots of fibre – such as wholegrain rice, bread and pasta – and plenty of fruit and vegetables also helps lower blood pressure. Aim to eat five portions of fruit and vegetables every day.

ALCOHOL INTAKE:
Regularly drinking alcohol above recommended limits can raise your blood pressure over time.

Staying within these recommended levels is the best way to reduce your risk of developing high blood pressure:

Men and women are advised not to regularly drink more than 14 units a week. Spread your drinking over three days or more if you drink as much as 14 units a week.

GET ACTIVE & LOSE WEIGHT:
Being active and taking regular exercise lowers blood pressure by keeping your heart and blood vessels in good condition.

Regular exercise can also help you lose weight, which will also help lower your blood pressure.

Adults should do at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) of moderate-intensity aerobic activity such as cycling or fast walking every week.

CUT DOWN CAFFEINE:
Drinking more than four cups of coffee a day may increase your blood pressure. If you’re a big fan of coffee, tea or other caffeine-rich drinks, such as cola and some energy drinks, consider cutting down.

STOP SMOKING:
Smoking doesn’t directly cause high blood pressure, but it puts you at much higher risk of a heart attack and stroke.

Smoking, like high blood pressure, will cause your arteries to narrow. If you smoke and have high blood pressure, your arteries will narrow much more quickly, and your risk of heart or lung disease in the future is dramatically increased.

SLEEP:
Long-term sleep deprivation is associated with a rise in blood pressure and an increased risk of hypertension. It’s a good idea to try to get at least six hours of sleep a night if you can.

Summary:
16. Excessive Urination/Urinating During the Night: Granted if you drink high amounts of water before you go to bed, there is a good chance you’re waking up in the middle of the night to urinate. But if you’re blood sugar level is too high, you could pick up a urinary tract infection which can result in excessive urinating.

15. Blurred Vision: Don’t overreact and go buy a pair of glasses if you begin to have temporary blurred vision. In most cases it’s high blood sugar, which causes the lens in the eyes to swell up.

14. Difficulty Concentrating: When the body is lacking insulin, it’s unable to remove glucose from the bloodstream into the cells. This doesn’t allow the body to properly function. This is why you feel tired and can’t concentrate properly. High blood sugar levels can dehydrate you because the body is trying to remove excess glucose through urination.

13. Dry Mouth: Because of the high glucose levels in your blood and saliva, which are caused by high blood sugar levels, your mouth becomes dry.

12. Impotence: This issue which only refers to men, stems from problems that are caused by poor long-term blood sugar control. This damages the nerves and the blood vessels.

11. Recurrent Infections: There are several recurring infections that need to be monitored. Dysfunction of the thyroid, adrenal and pituitary glands. Also watch out for numerous diseases in the pancreas and severe increase in blood glucose.

10. Slow Healing Wounds: If you find that the smallest cuts and bruises are taking longer than usual to heal, high blood sugar levels could be the cause. It affects the nerves and can lead to poor blood circulation, making it tough for blood – need for skin repair – to reach the wounded area.

9. Stomach Problems: When you have high blood sugar levels, emptying the food from your stomach could be delayed. This can lead to bloating, distention, abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting.

8. Constant Fatigue or Extreme Tiredness: If your thyroid level is low, there is a good chance you are going to feel tired, sleepy or depressed. In order to fight infections, it takes energy, which can result in constant fatigue and high blood sugar levels.

7. Thirst: When you have high blood sugar levels, your kidneys are forced to work overtime to filter and absorb the excess sugar. In order to achieve that, liquids need to flow through the body in order to urinate the sugar.

6. Dry and Itchy Skin: When there is poor blood circulation flow through the body, it causes itchy skin. The most common areas of the body that become itchiest are the lower parts of your legs.

5. Always Hungry: You may be one of those people that have a big appetite, and that’s fine. However, for people who normally do not have a large appetite, this could be because you’re lacking a hormone called incretin. Incretin reduces the flow of sugar from the liver after consuming a meal. If you lack this hormone, food empties quicker and you’ll be hungry again shortly after dinner, which increases your blood sugar level.

4. Excess Abdominal Weight/Fat: This is one of the most common signs that you have high blood sugar levels. The food that you have consumed was not all able to get into the cells as energy which would nourish the cells, so in turn, you feel hungry again.

3. Nerve Problems: Simply put, if your blood sugar levels are high, it can damage the blood vessels that carry oxygen and nutrients to the nerves, which can lead to nerve problems.

2. Skin Changes: If you begin to experience discoloration and certain growths on your skin, your blood sugar level may be high. Also, you may notice dark, thick areas of skin may begin to form on the back of your neck and your hands as well.

1. Tingling and Numbness: This goes hand-in-hand with nerve damage. If you experience tingling and numbness in certain areas of your body, your blood sugar level may be high. This type of nerve damage is called neuropathy.
