Here are five ways to relax blood vessels and help control blood pressure. In my June 16th post, I mentioned that one of four ways to help reduce blood pressure is to cause relaxation of blood vessels. Here are five ways to do this naturally. First, eat more foods like greens and beets that produce nitric oxide, which helps to relax blood vessels. Second, eat more foods with magnesium as magnesium is a natural calcium channel blocker and also helps to produce nitric oxide. Third, eat less red meat, egg yolks, and dairy as they increase trimethylamine N-oxide, which can cause vasoconstriction. Fourth, exercise as it naturally relaxes blood vessels. And fifth, use herbal supplements. See my previous post on 10 supplements for blood pressure.
