Do you know how vitamins, minerals, can affect your blood pressure  |
| |
| I get these really nice newsletters from healthier.com daily. You see I'm getting up in age and have a hubby with high blood pressure so I've been reading up on healthy things these days. Thought you might like to know a little about potassium, it's in lots of stuff that I wasn't aware of! "So far, research has shown that potassium does lower blood pressure. Studies have not indicated that calcium and magnesium supplements prevent high blood pressure. Here's the latest: Potassium helps to prevent and control high blood pressure. Be sure to get enough potassium in the foods you eat. Some good sources are various fruits, vegetables, dairy foods and fish.

| | You learn something new everyday. This is really good. Thank you for posting it up on this discussion. I am thirty eight and have just been told that I have high blood pressure. Three times this year my reading was high. I am severe asthmatic and I think it is all the medication that I am on, or maybe it is because I cannot breath everday. I have been searching high and low and did not know about these foods. I eat very healthy. I take calcium supplements but if I need more potassium, I will try these on your list. | | | | | | |
