According to the CDC, high blood pressure is the second greatest public health threat in the US, and 36 million people – about half of all with hypertension – have uncontrolled high blood pressure
Uncontrolled high blood pressure is a very serious health concern that can lead to heart disease and increase your risk of having a stroke. However, following a healthy nutrition plan, along with exercising, maintaining vitamin D levels, and implementing effective stress reduction techniques will normalize blood pressure in most people
Insulin resistance and elevated uric acid levels are significantly associated with high blood pressure. Any program adopted to address high BP needs to help normalize these two factors
Items that need to be excluded from your diet if you have high blood pressure include: fructose, grains, beer and caffeine
Potentially helpful supplements and other alternative strategies include calcium and magnesium, vitamins C and E, olive extract, electrical acupuncture, and techniques for increasing nitric oxide in your blood
