High blood pressure is a condition, which occurs when the speed of the blood flowing through the arteries, veins, and capillaries is fast. This puts stress not only on the blood vessels but also overexerts the heart and increases the risk of stroke as well as heart attacks. This condition is called hypertension, and a considerable amount of the adult population is suffering from it. However, it is possible to control high blood pressure by the use of a proper diet. Here are 15 foods you should eat if you suffer from high blood pressure.
#15 Bananas
Bananas are extremely rich in potassium content. This potassium is extremely important in neutralizing the sodium due to high salt concentration in the blood.
