Top Foods for Controlling High Blood Pressure

Strawberries

According to Harvard Medical School professor Dr. Eric Rimm, as reported by Harvard Health, strawberries are recognized for their ability to reduce blood pressure, thanks to their high levels of anthocyanins. These compounds help to enhance the elasticity of blood vessels, facilitating smoother blood flow.

This effect carries important implications for heart health. Dr. Rimm noted that women who consumed three or more servings of half a cup of strawberries per week were 37% less likely to have heart attacks compared to those who ate fewer berries.
