By Dr. Varun Gupta<\/h4>\n
Watermelon<\/h5>\n

It contains an amino acid called L-citrulline, which has proven to lower blood pressure. It is loaded with fiber, lycopenes, vitamin A and potassium. All these nutrients have blood pressure-lowering effects. Add watermelon to your fruit salads or have a glass of watermelon juice.<\/p>\n

Bananas<\/h5>\n

Bananas are low in sodium and rich in potassium which helps lower blood pressure. Add banana to your daily diet in cereal, fruit salads or have it as mid-day snack.<\/p>\n

Carrots<\/h5>\n

Carrots are high in potassium and beta-carotene which have been shown to be effective in reducing high blood pressure<\/a>. Have them in your daily salads or as cooked. You can also have a glass of freshly prepared carrot juice daily.<\/p>\n

Spinach<\/h5>\n

Spinach is low in calories, high in fiber and packed with nutrients like potassium, folate, magnesium – key ingredients for lowering and maintaining blood pressure levels<\/a>. Have it in cooked form or add fresh spinach leaves to salads.<\/p>\n

Beetroot<\/h5>\n

Beetroot (Chukandar) is rich in nitrates, which is thought to relax blood vessels and improve blood flow. Drink a glass of beet juice daily to help in keeping your blood pressure in check<\/p>\n

Oats<\/h5>\n

Oats are high in fiber and help reduce both systolic and diastolic pressure. You can start your day with a bowl of oats every morning<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
