A Healthy Blood Pressure and the Role of Noni in Regards to Blood Pressure

            The diagnosis and treatment of high blood pressure is critical to prevent, cardiovascular disease, stroke, kidney disease, circulation problems in the legs, and vision problems. Better yet, take preventative steps to avoid high blood pressure in the first place. The best preventative measures are natural and should be a way of life. The previous article identified certain lifestyles that increase the risk of high blood pressure; inactivity, obesity, and excess alcohol were a few. This article will identify the influence of certain minerals on a person’s blood pressure and the benefits of Noni Fruit Leather.

Sodium 

            Blood pressure is particularly sensitive to sodium. An excessive amount of salt leads to the kidney’s retention of fluid correlating to an increase in blood volume which then causes an increase in blood pressure. Since not all people living in North America are susceptible to a higher blood pressure resulting from a person’s salt intake, it is number 4 on the list of lifestyle factors associated with hypertension. Obesity, inactivity, and alcohol abuse rate is higher.

Helpful Minerals

            According to research studies, a diet that is low is salt and rich in potassium, magnesium, and calcium can reduce blood pressure within days of starting this kind of diet. The type of response seen is comparable to what is observed with commonly used high blood pressure medications. Further studies found a decrease in the risk of stroke among individuals who follow a diet that is rich in vegetables, fruit, and Vitamin C. Generally, a low salt diet that is rich in fat-free and low-fat dairy products, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and some nuts can significantly decrease the stroke and hypertension risk in countless people, especially those with high blood pressure.

            The majority of the risk factors contributing to stroke and hypertension can be controlled and suitable changes to one’s lifestyle can make a significant difference in reducing a person’s risk. Experts in the field recommend that people with hypertension try to decrease blood pressure through lifestyle changes and diet before relying on blood pressure medications. Consuming foods rich in minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and calcium as well as vitamin C are important as evidenced by the numerous studies available. This is where Noni Fruit Leather can make a significant contribution.

Noni Fruit Leather, combined with other lifestyle changes including moderate physical activity at regular intervals will contribute to better blood pressure control.
