The new guide explores the effects and long-term consequences of failing to undergo regular checks for blood pressure (also known as hypertension). Readers will find out why this condition has become known as the silent killer owing to its lack of symptoms, with many people only learning that they have it after suffering heart attacks, strokes, or some form of kidney disease.
According to studies by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, around 47% of all adults in the US have hypertension. This equates to approximately half of the adult population or 116 million people who have a systolic blood pressure reading of 130 mmHg or greater. The condition directly contributed to over 500,000 deaths in 2019 alone.
The Carecard article explains that eliminating excess sodium from one’s diet is crucial to ward off high blood pressure and recommends trying to replace salt with something like garlic. This can combat hypertension while also being naturally antifungal and antibiotic.
Nutrients such as potassium and magnesium are also essential and are proven to reduce blood pressure. These can be found in abundance in leafy greens such as kale, spinach, lettuce, and collard greens.
There is also welcome news for seafood lovers as the writer explores the benefits of Omega-3-heavy fish such as salmon, herring, and tuna. Other helpful foods to try include berries, carrots, broccoli, apples, beetroot juice, beans, oatmeal, edamame, and potatoes.
