Here are some recipes for making healthy and tasty smoothies with fresh vegetables and fruits to help reduce high blood pressure. Cook them in the morning and consume them regularly.
Smoothie with chocolate, peanut butter and bananas
Peanut butter, when consumed regularly, normalizes blood pressure due to the content of potassium, magnesium, amino acids and fiber. While dark chocolate (cocoa), which contains flavonoids, reduces it.
In a blender, add 1 chopped frozen banana, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, 1 tablespoon of dark chocolate (or cocoa), some honey, and 2 cups of milk.
Mix all of these ingredients together. Then pour the resulting mass into a glass. Drink daily in the morning.
Smoothie with pomegranate, mango and watermelon
Pomegranate blocks a certain enzyme in the body that increases blood pressure. Mango is rich in vitamin C, which repairs free radical damage to the walls of the arteries and thereby reduces high blood pressure.
Take 1 cup of pomegranate seeds, a few mango pieces, raspberries, and watermelon juice.
Mix thoroughly in a blender. Drink a smoothie every morning.
Blueberry, banana and spinach smoothie
Blueberries contain antioxidants (anthocyanins) that help normalize blood pressure. This smoothie is fortified with potassium, dietary nitrates and probiotics, which are essential for hypertensive patients.
Place 1 cup frozen blueberries, 1 ripe banana and 1 cup plain low fat yogurt and 1 cup spinach in a blender.
Stir these ingredients together and pour the mixture into a glass. Drink daily in the morning.
