Lower High Blood Pressure Risk With These Berries...
Dear Reader,
Delicious news! A new study that appears in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition finds that eating a cup of strawberries or blueberries a week can cut your chances of high blood pressure, which is a key risk factor for both heart disease and stroke.
The work, intent on investigating the role regular intake of dietary flavonoids might have on the risk of high blood pressure, included 133,914 women who took part in the Nurses' Health Study (I and II) and 23,043 men who were part of the Health Professionals Follow-up Study.
The subjects supplied information about their diet by food frequency questionnaires. Besides tasting naturally sweet and delicious, berries like strawberries and blueberries are low in fat, carbs and calories, but have loads of fiber, vitamins, minerals and those powerhouse antioxidants we've all heard so much about. Anthocyanins are only one such nutrient, but there are others.
During the 14-year follow up, the team found that 29,018 women and 5,629 men developed hypertension. But men and women with the highest levels of anthocyanins (a key part of both blueberries and strawberries) had an 8% lower risk for high blood pressure compared to those who ate the least amounts of these nutrient rich fruits.
Anthocyanin is a rather impressive antioxidant that gives these two delicious berries their incredible color. But it might also open blood vessels, which helps blood flow more smoothly and lowers the risk for high blood pressure.
The finding even held after experts controlled for other things we know are tied to high blood pressure risk. Family history, body mass index, how active a patient might be, and other dietary factors all play a part.
The risk reduction was most pronounced in those who were under 60 years old. Why?
The research team speculates that the cumulative damage done over many decades exceeds the capacity for flavonoids to help the blood vessel function in older people. The team points out that this suggests how important it is to eat well before middle age, so you give your body a chance to get the good for you benefits, while they still are beneficial.

Lower High Blood Pressure Risk With These Berries... Continued...
Estimates from the American Heart Association have one in three adults in the
U.S. being affected by high blood pressure. Another 2 million teens and children
are also affected. The causes of 90-95% of high blood pressures aren't known...
even though a doctor can measure your blood pressure quickly and easily in the
office. Seems strange that such a potentially dangerous thing could be uncovered
with such a simple, pain free test.
Research purists will point out that this new work did have some limitations.
No one measured food intake or blood pressure levels; these measures were self
reported by the study participants. This doesn't allow for the type of control
that researchers like to have in experiments. The next steps will be to test
optimal doses of anthocyanins rich foods to judge the prevention of high blood
pressure... to set guidelines.
In the meantime, if you're at risk for high blood pressure, do something to help
yourself. Prevention is the best treatment, and this comes from a healthy lifestyle...
eating a nutritious diet (lots of berries/veggies, no processed foods) and not
smoking. Keep those cholesterol numbers under control and do all you can to keep
them that way.
To your good health,
