Stressful lifestyle makes our blood pressure constantly to go up or down and high blood pressure may lead to stroke or heart attack.
Eliminating stress, healthy diet and moderate exercises are the cure for every health condition but it is hard to follow .
Uncontrolled blood pressure may lead to hypertension and serious damages of the heart and blood vessels so visit to your doctor and start controlling your lifestyle starting NOW.
Your Diet Will Raise or Lower Your Blood Pressure
High grain, low fat regimen is bad because this nutritional combination is a prescription for hypertension and can absolutely devastate your health.
Research published in 1998 in the journal Diabetes reported that nearly two-thirds of the test subjects who were insulin resistant (IR) also had high blood pressure.
Insulin resistance is directly attributable to a high sugar, high grain diet, especially if accompanied by inadequate exercise.
If you have hypertension, you also have poorly controlled blood sugar levels.
As your insulin level elevates, so does your blood pressure.
Insulin stores magnesium so if your insulin receptors are blunted and your cells grow resistant to insulin, you can’t store magnesium and it passes out of your body through urination.
If your magnesium level is too low, your blood vessels will constrict rather than relax, which will raise your blood pressure and decrease your energy level. Insulin also affects your blood pressure by causing your body to retain sodium. Sodium retention causes fluid retention what causes high blood pressure and can lead to congestive heart failure.
Fructose Can Cause Your Blood Pressure to Skyrocket
Remove all grains and sugars out of your diet.Bread, pasta, corn, potatoes, rice or any kind of sugars and grains will elevate your blood pressure and insulin levels.
One study discovered that people who consumed 74 grams or more daily fructose (about 2, 5 sugary drinks) had 77 percent increased risk of getting blood pressure levels of 160/100 mmHg (normal blood pressure is below 120/ 80 mmHg).
74 or more grams of fructose daily will increase the risk of 135/ 85 blood pressure reading by 26 percent and 140/90 by 30 percent.
Fructose breaks down into waste products which are bad for human’s body and one of them is uric acid. By inhibiting the nitric oxide in your blood vessels it drives up your blood pressure.
The nitric oxide is helping your vessels to maintain elastic and suppression of them increases the blood pressure.
17 out of 17 studies proven that increased uric acid levels lead to hypertension.
The recommended fructose allowance
Keep your total intake of fructose lower than 25 g per day. Many people limit their intake of fructose on 15 g per day, but you can start with 25.
15g of fructose are two bananas, one-third cup of raisins, or just two dates and 40 g of sugar is a can of soda.
Additional dietary considerations
Normalize your omega 6:3 ratio
Omega 6 is found in corn, soy canola oil, sunflower oil.
Omega 3 is found in fish.
To avoid high blood pressure regulate the 6:3 ratio and take care of what you are consuming.
If you have hypertension or some kind of heart disease you can worsen you condition by consuming caffeine. The best is to eliminate it entirely from your daily liquids .
Consume Fermented Foods
Consume some fermented food such as yogurt kefir, fermented vegetables etc. to prevent arterial plaque buildup and heart diseases.
Moderate exercising is very important
5-10 min exercise program is the key,you will feel better and your organism will feel and look younger .
Exercising you will also contribute for your insulin levels to stay at a normal rate. This happens when you do exercises for individual muscle groups which encouraged the blood flow in those muscles. Good blood flow will increase the insulin sensitivity.
Also you may add some supplement which will help you in achieving the best results but for that the best thing is to consult your doctor or pharmacist.
Daily vitamin D intake
Believe it or not, the farther you live from the equator, the higher your risk of developing high blood pressure 2.
Sunlight actually affects blood pressure in several ways:
– Sun exposure causes your body to produce vitamin D. Lack of sunlight reduces your vitamin D stores and increases parathyroid hormone production, which increases blood pressure.
– Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to insulin resistance (IR) and Syndrome X (also known as Metabolic Syndrome), a group of health problems that can include IR, elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels, obesity, and high blood pressure.If you’re vitamin D deficient, it can cause inappropriate activation of your RAS, which may lead to hypertension.
– Exposure to UV rays is thought to cause the release of endorphins, chemicals in your brain that produce feelings of euphoria and pain relief. Endorphins naturally relieve stress, and stress management is an important factor in resolving hypertension.
Always control your intake of vitamin D because you may overdose.
Stress control is very important
One third of Americans have problems with high blood pressure and the other third experiences stress daily.
Stress and hypertension (high blood pressure) are tightly connected ,Dr. Kennedy, who examined the connection has come up with revolutionary technique which helps you decrease your blood pressure in 15 min.
