Elena Malysheva spoke about the TOP-3 super-products that will help normalize blood pressure in case of hypotension. By including them in your diet, you can avoid serious health problems.
What is the danger of low blood pressure?
Alas, even doctors today do not take low blood pressure as seriously as high. Therefore, the problems of those who regularly live with low blood pressure are not fully understood. Anyone knows - a pressure of 120/80 is considered normal, an excess is called hypertension. Low blood pressure - hypotension. And as noted in the reports of the WHO, more than 300 million people worldwide suffer from this pathology.
At the same time, Russia in the list of countries with the largest number of cases is far from the last place - in our country, very many suffer from this condition.
The main causes of hypotension are as follows:
- minimal mobility;
- age-related changes;
- bad habits;
- chronic infectious pathologies;
- unfavorable ecological situation.
The main danger of hypotension, if not treated, is that this disease in the future can cause atherosclerosis, memory loss, and dementia.
Therefore, it is so important to normalize blood pressure. And this can be done by simply changing the diet and including some foods in it.
What does Elena Malysheva say?
In one of the programs devoted to blood pressure, Elena Malysheva named three super-products that will help maintain blood pressure in a normal state.
These products are:
- Broccoli. This product is high in fiber, chromium, calcium, magnesium and ascorbic acid. These substances are necessary for the normal functioning of blood vessels, normalization of insulin, regulating blood glucose levels, which has a positive effect on blood pressure. It is enough to eat 200 g of cabbage a day to relax the walls of blood vessels. This product is best consumed fresh, since vitamin C is lost in the product during long cooking.
- Black beans. The main advantage of this product is the large amount of magnesium. It also contains potassium and fiber, which have a positive effect on the state of blood vessels and the heart, normalizing blood pressure.
- Oats. Another super product. As Elena Malysheva notes, this product is very useful. Firstly, oats have a low GI, so their consumption does not lead to an increase in appetite, and sugar levels are also contained. Thanks to this, a sharp increase in blood sugar can be avoided, there is no stress for the body and blood vessels in particular, due to which they continue to work normally. Secondly, oats reduce the level of bad cholesterol, protect the heart, and normalize metabolism. All this together has a positive effect on the body as a whole and helps to normalize blood pressure.
It is also important to remember about the need for physical activity and giving up bad habits.
