Cut Stroke, Heart Disease Risk With Potassium Rich Foods...
Dear Reader,
The average daily intake of potassium, considered an essential dietary mineral, is much lower than health authorities would like. Researchers are convinced that increasing the amount you get might actually provide protection from stroke and other heart disorders.
Potassium is known to be important to heart function, now Italian researchers have found that eating potassium rich foods can lower your risk for a stroke by 21%, and might also bring down your chances of heart disease as well. Their report appears in the online edition of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
A stroke is defined by doctors as an interruption of the blood supply to any part of the brain due to a clot (ischemic stroke) or burst blood vessel (hemorrhagic stroke) that leaks blood into the surrounding tissues.
When the flow of blood stops, even for a few seconds, the brain is kept from getting the oxygen it needs and cells in that area die off. This is what leaves patients with permanent damage.
For the research, Dr. Pasquale Strazzullo, a professor at Italy's Federico II University of Naples Medical School, and his team pulled information about heart disease and potassium intake from 11 different studies. These studies included 358,620 men and women and information on what these subjects ate the day before. The procedure the team used, known technically as a meta analysis, looks for trends in the data that might support a conclusion even if this was not the main point of the original study.
They found that subjects who took in 1.64 grams of potassium (or more) a day had a 21% lower risk of stroke, with lower risks of heart disease as well.
Five or more servings of fruits and veggies each day is enough to give you the protective affect, the researchers note. Supplements do not appear to offer the same protective benefits in terms of stroke risk.
The reduced stroke risk and heart benefits may be due to potassium's ability to lower blood pressure, particularly when someone has hypertension and elevated salt intake.
Potassium may also contribute to cardiovascular system health by slowing atherosclerosis and keeping the walls of arteries from thickening as the result of a build-up of fatty materials like cholesterol - both important in terms of preventing heart disease.

Cut Stroke, Heart Disease Risk With Potassium Rich Foods... Continued...
Doctor's know the number one risk for stroke is high blood pressure. Typically
men have more strokes than women do, however a woman has a higher risk of stroke
during her pregnancy and the weeks immediately after delivering the baby.
Symptoms of a stroke usually come on suddenly, without any warning, or they can
come and go over a day or two. If your doctor suspects you've had a stroke, you'll
undergo a complete physical and neurological exam to see where you stand.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture tells us that sweet potato and tomato paste
top the list of good sources of potassium. Fruits like bananas, cantaloupe, grapefruit
and oranges are other great sources. Veggies such as tomatoes and low fat dairy
are also great sources of dietary potassium.
Getting more potassium is safe and easy and is a recommendation of the American
Heart Association. In fact, the well known DASH diet is one of the best examples
of heart healthy eating plan because it's full of fruits, veggies and nuts, supports
moderation in low fat dairy and sodium while also being high in potassium. Might
be a smart move to make the changes to your diet that have you eating better...
putting good things into your body to help it stay healthy, strong and vibrant
now and in years to come.
To your good health,
