Скачать или смотреть 5 Potassium Rich Fruits That May Help Lower Your Blood Pressure

The text discusses several potassium-rich fruits that can help support healthy blood pressure and potentially lower it over time:

1. Bananas - High in potassium (452 mg per medium banana) which can help lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Bananas also provide dietary fiber which is linked to lower risk of heart and metabolic diseases.

2. Pomegranates - Rich in potassium (333 mg per 1/2 pomegranate, 267 mg per 1/2 cup juice) and packed with heart-healthy plant compounds. Studies show pomegranates or pomegranate juice may help lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, especially in those with higher readings.

3. Kiwi - High in potassium (562 mg per serving of 2 kiwis) and studies suggest eating 2 kiwis daily may lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, likely due to the potassium and other compounds like polyphenols and vitamin C.

4. Avocados - May play a role in supporting healthy blood pressure over time, possibly due to their nutrients like magnesium, fiber, and heart-healthy fats.

5. Oranges - A good source of potassium (324 mg per orange, 248 mg per 1/2 cup juice) and research shows people who eat citrus fruits regularly tend to have lower systolic blood pressure.

The text explains how potassium helps regulate blood pressure by supporting the kidneys in flushing out excess sodium. Getting enough potassium from food is preferred over supplements unless recommended by a doctor. #health #healthnews #medicine #medical #medicalnews #healthcare
