 Tropical Treat for Blood Pressure

Your blood pressure could be lower just by indulging more in this sweet tropical treat: bananas.

Cheap and plentiful year-round, bananas are bursting with potassium. And a review of several major studies suggests that people who add the potassium equivalent of an extra 1 1/2 to 2 bananas to their day could drop their blood pressure 2 to 3 points. 

 
Dropping BP by 2 or 3 points is nothing to sneeze at. In fact, it’s enough to lower stroke risk. In other research, people with the highest potassium intake levels cut their stroke risk by a whopping 38 percent compared with the people who got the least potassium. This magical mineral works by encouraging your kidneys to filter more pressure-boosting sodium out of your bloodstream. It also helps tiny blood vessels relax and makes pressure sensors in artery walls function more efficiently. (Here’s another sweet treat that snares high blood pressure.)

Mass A-Peel
Aim for 3,000 milligrams a day of potassium to get optimal RealAge benefits. But don’t rely on pills; they can be dangerous if you have kidney problems. Go with fruits and veggies instead — not just bananas but prunes, watermelon, baked potatoes with the skin, mushrooms, tomatoes, and other produce, too. Produce will also give you a head start on these important blood pressure control strategies:

Did you know? Nearly 90 percent of adults will develop high blood pressure by age 65. See if your blood pressure is affecting your health with this quick quiz.

RealAge Benefit:

Keeping your blood pressure at 115/76 mm Hg can make your RealAge as much as 12 years younger.

Load up on potassium-packed bananas the next time you’re at the market. To ripen them and keep them looking their best, hang ‘em high on this banana hook. Pressure-point bruising and soft spots are a thing of the past . . . along with those high blood pressure numbers.

Coconut water has 670 mg of potassium per 11oz container. Only 60 calories and O fat, way more than a banana. I mix it w/ cal/mag powdered drink .

The last time I ate a banana was in 1959. I spent two weeks in the hospital, 7 days NPO while my gut healed. I still have problems even touching unpeeled bananas. Other high potassium foods include green tea, Green lima beans, peaches, plums and apricots. One food is not a cure all and sometimes it can be a killer.

I make banana/coconut pancakes for breakfast, I use rice flour, rice milk and real maple syrup, season with ground cinnamon, fresh grated lemon peel and a pinch of nutmeg. I cook them in a little bit of extra virgin, organic coconut oil. Quite decadent but still healthy and low fat. (the healthy kind) sooo yummy!

My problem is unique in that I have high blood pressure, but have to monitor my potassium very closely, as it runs either too high or too low! I have had to give up food with high potassium, as I take medication to retain potassium. My potassium totally depletes if I don’t medicate to retain it. Has anyone else ran into that problem?

Good idea but not if you don’t like the food they talk about, it only works if you will eat it. When I was little grandpa ate real dark bananas and now the smell gags me, I can only eat it when its really green and just slightly yellow when you can first peel them or the smell makes me throw up. I use this blue salt shaker in my house its like 50% less sodium salt and it tastes the same. Its made with real salt and potassium chloride instead of sprinkling on real salt. And I never buy low sodium alternative foods because they just use less salt and the food never gets that flavor like it would if soaked in something salty, I find myself putting on much much more salt than the regular version and I still am not happy with the taste because its not salty enough.
