FOODS OR DRINKS THAT HELP TO BRING DOWN HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

I highly recommend the foods and drinks below that can lower your blood pressure levels;

Berries

Blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries are high in anthocyanin flavonoids with antioxidant properties that can aid in lowering and managing blood pressure.

Low-fat dairy products

 Including low-fat dairy foods or drinks like skimmed milk can significantly reduce systolic blood pressure when the heart pumps blood which can help maintain moderate blood pressure levels.

Beetroot juice

Having a cup of beetroot juice can drop your blood sugar levels quickly. The nitrate compounds in beetroot juice enhance blood vessel relaxation, which widens them, promoting smooth blood flow, and eventually decreasing blood pressure.
