The superfood against high blood pressure
A real superfood for those suffering from high blood pressure is blueberry. Simple. Some studies have shown that both wild blueberries (frozen, but obviously also fresh), and blueberry powder are useful in cases of hypertension. One of these studies involved a sample of postmenopausal women for eight weeks. For those who do not have fresh or frozen blueberries, a suggestion may be to use a supplement, like this one from Aboca . Otherwise in all organic shops or herbalists you can ask for cranberry juice or red and drink it diluted in water every day.
Let’s say you have blueberries available, here is an easy recipe for those suffering from high blood pressure.
BLUEBERRY AND BANANA SMOOTHIE
125 gr of ripe blueberries
a very ripe medium-sized banana (150 gr)
170 gr of Greek yogurt type fage 0%
or 125 gr of natural low-fat yogurt + two cups of water
a handful of raw spinach
Just blend all the ingredients and drink right away.
An interesting addition could be coconut water instead of yogurt, due to its potassium content: a vegan and even sweeter alternative for those who need to lower high blood pressure but also want something tasty, especially at breakfast or in the middle of the day. .
