These Purple Vegetables May Lower Your Blood Pressure...
Dear Reader,
Here's an unexpected suggestion for lowering blood pressure... two servings of purple potatoes a day.
When subjects in recent research conducted by Joe Vinson, a chemistry professor at the University of Scranton included two servings of these regal, richly colored potatoes in their diet for a month, they not only brought down their blood pressure, but they didn't gain any weight. The research appears online in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
In fact, the royally colored spud has many of the same beneficial plant pigments as purple fruits do - rich in antioxidants like anthocyanins, carotenoids and phenolic acids that may bring down chronic inflammation associated with both stroke and heart disease. These potatoes also have high levels of chlorogenic acid, a substance that animal research has shown to bring down high blood pressure.
For the research, the team kept track of 18 middle aged adults, half asked to eat the skin and flesh of 6-8 small Purple Majesty potatoes at both the midday and evening meals for four weeks; the other half didn't eat the veggie.
During the second four-week period, the groups switched - purple potato eaters not eating them, and the non-eaters adding them to both mid-day and evening meals.
The potatoes were microwaved and eaten with their skin on.
Those who ate the purple potatoes had a drop, on average, of just over 3% in systolic (top number, while the heat beats) and just about 4% in diastolic pressure (bottom number, while the heart rests).
A total of 14 of the participants in the study were diagnosed with high blood pressure, and continued to take medication for it during the research. The good news is that even a small drop in a blood pressure reading can reduce the odds of dangerous heart disease.
And though the subjects eating potatoes did take in more calories, their weight didn't go up. This is good news considering several of the study participants were obese or overweight.
White potatoes are a popular vegetable, with the average American eating the equal of one medium sized potato per day. These veggies are a great source of potassium and vitamin C, and eating the skin gives you more fiber as well. The fat and calorie content goes up when you take this veggie and mash it, fry it or serve it au gratin or topped with lots of sour cream and butter... as you might expect.
Experts don't know if the white variety of potatoes, with fewer plant pigments and antioxidants, would do the same for blood pressure as the less popular purple variety does. More work will be needed; still Vinson feels that this is some evidence that purple potatoes may bring some benefit.

These Purple Vegetables May Lower Your Blood Pressure... Continued...
Estimates from the American Heart Association have one in three U.S. adults with
high blood pressure, many undiagnosed. Normal blood pressure is any reading below
120/80. Readings between 120/80 and 139/89 are considered pre hypertension, and
a reading of 140/90 or over puts you in the high blood pressure category.
Since
high blood pressure has no outward symptoms, damage to your body can be happening
without you even knowing, or feeling, a thing. Your first step therefore, if
you don't know your reading, is to find out.
If your numbers are higher than they should be, you run an increased risk not
only for heart disease, but kidney disease, hardening of the arteries, damage
to your eyes and debilitating stroke. Getting treatment right away, and making
the lifestyle choices (balanced diet and exercise) necessary to keep your body
healthy are the best ways to ensure you don't suffer any of these unwelcome complications.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
