Keto? Paleo? Low-sodium? When you're trying to eat for better blood pressure, the internet makes it feel like you have to become a different person overnight!
Let's forget all of that. I'm giving you permission to not be perfect. You don't need a total diet revolution. You just need to make one better choice today.
And the easiest way to start is by focusing on what you can ADD to your plate, not what you need to take away. Here are three simple powerhouses to choose from.
Number 1: Bananas.
Why? They're packed with potassium, which is like a superhero for balancing salt levels in your body. How? Slice one on your morning oatmeal or just grab it for a snack.
Number 2: Spinach.
Why? It's loaded with nutrients that help your blood vessels relax. How? Toss a handful into your smoothie, soup, or pasta sauce. You won't even taste it!
Number 3: Plain Yogurt.
Why? It's great for gut health and contains calcium, which plays a role in healthy blood pressure. How? Top it with berries for breakfast or use it instead of sour cream.
See? It's not about deprivation. It's about addition. One small, healthy choice at a time builds a healthier you. It's simple, easy, and you can start right now.
So, what's one good thing you're going to add to your plate today?
