6. Carrots
Munching on this staple veggie should be your number one priority starting today (especially if you’re dealing with high blood pressure). Nutritious, really sweet, and crunchy, carrots are found on this list mainly due to their phenolic compounds.
P-coumaric, caffeic acids, and chlorogenic and all phenolic compounds that are responsible for the relaxation of blood vessels and the reduction of inflammation. Both processes lowering your blood pressure levels in the end.
And yes, they can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, but we recommend consuming them raw. In a study, 2195 participants managed to reduce their blood pressure levels only by eating raw carrots regularly.
Another study pointed out that at least 16 ounces of carrot juice (freshly made) per day could lead to an impressive reduction in both systolic blood pressure and diastolic one.
Other impressive benefits of carrots:Â
- maintaining healthy teeth
- boosting cognitive functions
- protecting against certain cancers
- promoting your youthful appearance
- lowering the risk of developing diabetes
- improving heart health
Pro tip: If you like binging as I do, at least opt for homemade carrot chips.
