How to Decrease Blood Pressure With Coconut Water

Hypertension which causes the heart to work harder is one of the most
common risk factor for heart attack in the United States. The other contributing factors which put
last nail in the coffin to increase the rate of hear attack are age, diet & stress. We all know
that salt, or sodium, increases blood pressure, but eating sufficient quantity of potassium is
beneficial to lowering blood pressure, which reduces your risk for developing heart disease, heart
failure, kidney disease or suffering a stroke. Meat, milk and cereal contain potassium, but it is
in a form that is not as easily digestible as the potassium in fruits and vegetables. Coconut water
is one of them which has high amount of potassium. It also contains organic compounds possessing
healthy growth promoting properties that have been known to keep the body cool and at the proper
temperature, promote weight loss, boost poor circulation, etc.
Now there comes a question of finding a Coconut. It’s very
easy to have a Coconut in your bag. Simply go to the local grocery store. Look in the fresh
fruit sections and see if you can discover a young coconut. Young coconuts are usually green or
white in color. Never pick the brown looking coconuts as their water is not as healthy as young
coconut water.
