thanks for sharing this lady RedDahlia.



diabetes and high blood pressure incidence is high out there.


perhaps we can also look into some recipes for those suffering from high blood pressure.

Berries



Berries, especially blueberries, are rich in natural compounds called flavonoids. One study found that consuming these compounds might prevent hypertension, and possibly help to reduce high blood pressure.

Blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries are easy to add to your diet. Put them on your cereal every morning. Keep frozen berries on hand for a quick and healthful dessert

Potatoes



Potatoes are high in potassium and magnesium, two minerals that can help to lower your blood pressure. They are also high in fiber, which is necessary for an overall healthy diet.

Enjoy a baked potato as the centerpiece of your dinner. Instead of fattening and salty butter and sour cream, try adding plain yogurt or salsa for flavor.

Skim milk




The DASH diet recommends increasing the amount of calcium-rich foods that you eat. Skim milk is an excellent source of calcium and is low in fat. These are both important elements of a diet for lowering blood pressure.

Swap out your higher-fat milk for skim milk, or if you don’t care for milk, eat more low-fat or nonfat yogurt. Just make sure to avoid yogurt that is high in sugar.

I like tuna or beans on my jacket potatoes when I'm being good. Dad can't have beans on his though as he's diabetic & too much sugar is put in tinned beans. Low-fat diets are also good for people who are at risk of heart disease or who are suffering from heart disease, Clay.

I think low fat diets is the way to go.


one has to protect their health.

Thanks for all the valuable information Clay. People that suffer from leg cramps are often found to be low in potassium.  Also a low potassium level can result in seizure activity. Everyone should have their levels checked annually.

agreed lady RedDahlia.

I picked up a bottle of potassium the other day when I was at walmart.


it cant hurt to supplement your diet with potassium as we get older.
