Foods for your blood pressure

While most vegetables are beneficial for heart health, there are a few that can impact blood pressure. Here are some to be mindful of:

Potatoes: They’re rich in potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure. Purple potatoes may have an added advantage in reducing artery stiffness.

Beets: High in nitrates, which can improve blood flow and lower blood pressure.

Tomatoes: Contain lycopene, which has cardiovascular benefits.

Leafy greens: Spinach, kale, and Swiss chard provide potassium and magnesium.

Winter squash: Another potassium-rich option.

Remember, a balanced diet with a variety of veggies is key to maintaining healthy blood pressure!
