7 Star Foods that lower blood
pressure
Hi John
According to the CDC, 67 million people in the US have "crossed a dangerous line"--having blood pressure that equals or exceeds 140/90.
In other words, they have hypertension (aka high blood pressure).
Plus the World Heart Federation estimates that 970 million people worldwide are on the wrong side of those numbers too.
And while it can't be argued that elevated blood pressure can be a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease, the fact is, that is not true for everyone.
But the problem is that as soon as you cross that line, regardless of your situation, you are handed your white slip of (prescription pad) paper and have officially arrived in the land of the treated.
That's when the trouble can begin.
Here's why:
It's all a numbers game
Many factors can influence your blood pressure and cause it to rise or run on the higher side.
They include things like:
And the biggest problem is, many people are not only NOT being helped, but they're actually being HARMED from this way of thinking.
You see, increasing numbers of studies now report that blood pressure drugs used to treat mild cases of hypertension not only do NOT reduce heart attacks, strokes or overall deaths, but they come with a mile long list of side effects.
These can include loss of libido, urinary infections, asthma symptoms, insomnia, depression, coughing, rashes, dizziness, drowsiness, constipation and diarrhea...and even DEATH.
What makes this even worse is that many times when someone starts suffering these or other side effects, they are given MORE drugs to counteract the symptoms.
In addition, some studies have shown MORE heart attacks among patients medicated for mild hypertension!
Talk about something blowing up in your face.
Eat your way to better numbers
If your numbers are creeping up and you think that dangerous medications and side effects are a given for you, that's not necessarily true.
You can help make a tremendous difference in your blood pressure--safely and naturally.
In addition to getting regular exercise, quitting smoking and reducing stress in your life, there are also foods you can eat that help lower blood pressure, and they also happen to be delicious!
Here are the...
Seven Star Foods to Lower Blood Pressure
1) Raisins
"Nature's candy" is not only rich in antioxidants, helps enhance bone health and protect against macular degeneration, but now raisins have been shown to help lower blood pressure too.
So grab a handful and snack your way to lower readings.
2) Kiwi fruit
Some of the impressive benefits of these brown fuzzy gems are that they're loaded with Vitamin C, help fight colds and prevent asthma, and have fiber that helps keep you "regular" down there.
And eating three of them a day can help lower your blood pressure too, according to the American Heart Association.
3) Garlic
Fresh raw garlic has been shown to not only help lower blood pressure, but also help lower LDL cholesterol and raise HDL cholesterol!
If the idea of raw garlic is a big "strong" for you, you can enjoy it in this delicious bread dip:
4) Cayenne pepper
Good news for you spicy food lovers!
In addition to helping enhance your immune system, ease osteoarthritis pain, clear congestion and fight inflammation, cayenne pepper has been shown to help reduce blood pressure.
Now don't worry, those of you with ulcers or other stomach challenges. Cayenne pepper is alkaline to your body, and it's even been shown to help PREVENT ulcers!
5) Watermelon
The picnic staple can also help keep you out of the pharmacy.
A Florida State University study has concluded that watermelon lowers blood pressure.
In addition to its helpful potassium content, the researchers also found a specific amino acid in watermelon that helps to bring your numbers down too.
6) Bananas
And speaking of potassium, bananas should be on your list of hypertension-fighting foods.
The Harvard Medical School reported a UK study that determined foods containing potassium nitrate (like bananas) were more effective than supplements containing potassium chloride for lowering blood pressure.
7) Dark chocolate
Ahhh, a dream come true. Something so delicious can be so very good for you too.
The research proves it--there are compounds in cacao that dilate blood vessels and lower blood pressure.
The catch is the chocolate must be dark and preferably organic...
And you should not eat it by the boatload. Because then you'll be dealing with excess weight which will push your blood pressure UP--not down.
Take advantage of Nature's "anti-inflammatory" too
Omega-3 essential fatty acids have been medically PROVEN to help lower blood pressure.
Now, these heart-healthy nutrients are abundant in wild-caught fatty fish, but not only do many people not like the taste of fish, but thanks to high levels of pollution and contamination, many times it's more health-HARMING than health-HELPING to eat fish!
So one of the best ways to engage this natural anti-inflammatory and help fight high blood pressure is to take a very high-quality fish oil supplement.
And for outstanding quality, look no further than VitalMega-3.
- http://www.bluerockholistics.com/product/vitalmega3.asp
VitalMega-3 delivers 1,200 mg. of these essential nutrients (including the all-important EPA and DHA) in the same pure form you'd get directly from the fish themselves.
You see, VitalMega-3 is made from plankton-eating fish from Icelandic waters in accordance with Iceland’s sustainable fisheries laws.
These tiny fish contain the ocean’s highest natural oil content AND they are largely free of the pollutants found in larger species in the marine food chain.
Plus we take an additional huge step to guarantee purity with our manufacturer's sophisticated CO2 distillation process.
So what you get is the pure, potent power of blood pressure-lowering Omega-3 EFAs!
It’s not cut and dry
Remember, elevations in blood pressure are not as cut and dry as they seem.
And if your blood pressure is creeping up, drugs do NOT necessarily have to be your destiny.
Experience for yourself the power of eating for lower blood pressure and supplementing with Omega-3 essential fatty acids.
You just might shock your doc the next time he wraps the cuff around your arm!
To your health,
Sherry Brescia

Dear Sherry,
After experiencing 12 hours of agonizing abdominal pain and having a CAT scan all in one day last May, I decided I HAD to follow your "Great Taste No Pain" eating plan, no excuses, no cheating.
As long as I stick scrupulously to the plan, my two prescription GERD pills stay in the medicine cabinet.
But even better, since then I easily lost 20-25 pounds; and as of 3 days ago, my blood pressure has dropped to 118/70, and my cholesterol has dropped to 140.
These are additional, unexpected benefits that are music to the ears of this 64-year-old lady.
Thank you, Sherry.

That's when the trouble can begin.
Here's why:
It's all a numbers game
Many factors can influence your blood pressure and cause it to rise or run on the higher side.
They include things like:
- Genetics
- Certain medications
- Stress
- Age (over 50)
- Eating too much sodium (especially the
highly processed salt found in fast and packaged foods)
- Acid waste buildup in your bloodstream
- Smoking
And the biggest problem is, many people are not only NOT being helped, but they're actually being HARMED from this way of thinking.
You see, increasing numbers of studies now report that blood pressure drugs used to treat mild cases of hypertension not only do NOT reduce heart attacks, strokes or overall deaths, but they come with a mile long list of side effects.

dried)
- 2-3 cloves garlic, pressed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
