Lowering High Blood Pressure With Kiwifruit...
Dear Reader,
A small but promising study presented at the American Heart Associations annual meeting has found that the fuzzy brown kiwifruit might just help bring down moderately high blood pressure. That tiny package is loaded with a lot of nutrition and is especially rich in the antioxidant lutein.
Cardiologists caution that there's no magic food that is good for the heart, but that kiwi might have earned a place in the 5 servings a day of fruit and veggies that are recommended as part of a heart healthy diet.
We know that blood pressure rises and falls naturally during the day, but if it stays up, over time, that's when your doctor will diagnose high blood pressure (also known as hypertension). The reason this is dangerous is that it keeps your heart working harder than it should, and the force of the blood flow can hurt arteries and even the heart muscle itself as well as the kidneys, brain and eyes.
Hypertension has no symptoms or warning signs... the first time you hear about it will likely be in your doctor's office during a physical exam. Once blood pressure is in the high range it will stay there, unless you take steps to manage it.
Doctors will tell you that what you eat most definitely impacts your chances of having high blood pressure, and that studies have shown following the DASH eating plan, and eating less salt, can be tremendously helpful.
Researcher Mette Svendsen of Oslo University Hospital in Norway led the study on kiwi and high blood pressure that included 50 men and 68 women (average age was 55) who were assigned to eat three kiwis or a single apple each day for an eight week period.
When the research started, the subjects had blood pressure readings in the slightly elevated range of 128/85 and changed nothing in the way they ate except adding the fruit. The researchers kept track of blood pressure using 24 hour ambulatory monitoring, a more precise measurement than taking a single reading.
The three kiwis a day group improved their blood pressure more than those who ate an apple every day.

Lowering High Blood Pressure With Kiwifruit... Continued...
While these findings might put kiwi on the map, the fruit isn't always the easiest
to find. Also, the levels used in the study, 21 kiwis a week, is hardly considered
moderate intake. Experts caution against popping lutein as a supplement as this
nutrient hasn't been proven to do anything, and is only part of another food.
To be most effective, it may well need to be eaten in its natural state.
About 1 in 3 U.S. adults has high blood pressure today, so it's important to
know your own numbers, even if you feel just fine. Today, normal blood pressure
is considered to be less than 120 (systolic, when the heart beats) and less than
80 (diastolic, when the heart is at rest).
The good news is that you can do things to control hypertension, keep it from
doing unseen damage to your body - live a healthy lifestyle, continue your medical
care and stick with your treatment plan. No one is, even after this research,
suggesting you start eating kiwi and stop taking any blood pressure medication
your doctor has prescribed for you. If you are under treatment, and have repeat
readings in the normal range, your hypertension is considered to be under control
- what you're doing with diet, exercise and treatment is working.
To your good health,
