13 Power Foods

  1. "Sodium has always been the blood pressure bogeyman, but it's just as important to choose foods naturally low in sodium and high in at least two of the three power minerals:  calcium, magnesium and potassium".  Prevention Magazine, July 2014

    The above information comes from the book, Lower Your Blood Pressure Naturally, which says that there are 13 foods that are important for us to eat to lower our blood pressure, and cut our risk for strokes and heart attacks in half.  Those foods are:  white beans, quinoa, pork tenderloin, fat-free plain yogurt, red bell pepper, kale, broccoli, sweet potato, banana, kiwifruit, peach or nectarine, avocado.  Yum!  A good excuse to eat the foods that are delicious and nutritious.
