Fruits and vegetables lowers blood pressure

potassium-rich foods such as bananas, spinach, peas, helps to reduce blood pressure, even kaphio. According to a new study.

Sodium-rich foods is a well-established method of lowering blood pressure is reduced. However, University of Southern California (iuesasi) researcher Alicia McDonough said, the new information and evidence has been found, dietary potassium levels, but it also plays an important role in reducing high blood pressure.

Hypertension, or high blood pressure is a global health. More than 10 million people worldwide infected with it. According to the World Health Organization, at least 51 percent of stroke deaths causes. Responsible for high blood pressure. 45 percent of heart attacks and died.

The researchers indicated, blood potassium levels are working to control the sodium. By eating potassium-rich foods, the body is made to adjust the two.

The study was conducted over a variety of human populations. The researchers found lower blood pressure in people with eating potassium-rich foods.

The further research and study has been recommended as a supplement potassium. The researchers say the benefits of potassium in the body is straight.

McDonough said the researcher, when the body is high potassium levels, kidney, and more salt and water from the body gives out. At the same time the potassium out. This means that taking potassium-rich foods to eat diuretic. He said, "Our fathers ate the meal primitive. Most of the food was a potassium-rich fruits and vegetables. The diet was low in sodium. At one stage, instead of the sodium potassium in humans is the desire to receive. "

The researchers say the next major change in the human diet. Keeping in mind the demand and delicious food processed food companies began to add salt to. Processed foods are generally low potassium levels. And sodium is high. 

McDonough said, "If you eat typical Western diet, the higher the rate of consumption of sodium and potassium intake to lower rates. And your risk of high blood pressure will increase substantially. "
