High Blood Pressure Be Gone

Posts Tagged ‘supplements’

I’ve been getting a lot of feedback and questions about Alistrol – the latest natural supplement to treat high blood pressure to hit the market.

The feed back is generally positive – no bad side effects and a reduced blood pressure over time.

So what exactly is Alistrol? It’s a daily supplement composed of four natural ingredient known to be effective in reducing hypertension: Hawthorn, garlic, Holly leaf, and Daikon Seed.

These ingredients are known to help dilate the blood vessels enabling your blood to flow more easily ant a reduced pressure. Its effects are similar to many anti-hypertensive medications except the ingredients are natural and no ill side effects have been reported.

My personal opinion is that Alistrol is a great aid in reducing your blood pressure and keeping it in a healthy range – but is not a simple substitute for a healthier lifestyle.

You can reduce your blood pressure by 10 to 20 points systolic if you take Alistrol daily … but that not going to be enough if your blood pressure is hitting 200+ systolic or 1oo+ diastolic. You’ll still need to adapt a healthier lifestyle like I’ve had to. That includes daily exercise, good diet, and some essential supplements like Vitamin C, Calcuium, Magnisium, and Omega 3.

If, on the other hand, you are what they call “pre-hypertensive” (130-145 / 90 – 95 BP range), then a daily dose of Alistrol is probably all you will need.

Clinic tests of Alistrol has been shown to be very positive with the vast majority of test subjects (9 out of 10) showing a reduction of blood pressure after the first month.

That’s not to say that Alistrol will definitely help reduce blood pressure for everyone. Unless you have an identical twin, your genetic make up is unique. That’s why it’s so difficult to state facts about blood pressure treatments – natural or prescriptive.

Nor do I believe that by taking Alistrol every day you can revert to a unhealthy stressed out lifestyle of no exercise and a diet of junk food. There is no magic cure all pill for high blood pressure. It’s the combination of healthy lifestyle combined with powerful supplements like Alistrol that can help bring down even the most stubborn blood pressure.

The only way that you can tell if Alistrol is good for you is to give it a month’s trial. I’m happy to recommend this treatment because if it fails to significantly reduce your blood pressure after a month you can simply get a refund. In other words -  nothing to lose and a lower blood pressure to gain.

It has been well documented that the French nation enjoys better cardio-vaschlar health than many other nations in the developed world – despite their fondness of culinary treats that may not deserve the label of ‘health food’.

This ‘French Paradox’ and has largely been explained by their habit of drinking good red wine everyday with their main meal. Having visited and spent time with a family in France in the past I can personally vouch that it’s true. (By the way, if you ever find yourself dining around a French table, don’t mix your red wine with water as they do in Portugal, or you risk social disapproval and mild condemnation!)

So how does red wine help keep your blood pressure down and your heart healthy? Red wine conntains resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant that keeps your arteries healthy and working as they were intended. Resveratrol provides a number of benefits including:

• protects your arteries against oxygen free radicals
• helps prevent atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries)
• prevents your platelets from clumping together (reduces risk of blood clotting)
• inhibits angiotensin II (which can increase blood pressure if your body  produces too much)
• improves the function of blood pressure lining

All in all, resveratrol has shown to help keep your heart and circulatory system healthy and your blood pressure down where it should be.

Resveratrol comes from the skin of red grapes but getting it via red wine is better because the alcohol in wine extracts and dissolves the resveratrol making it easier for your body to absorb. In short, you’d have to eat a basket full of grapes to get the same benefits of a glass or two of good red wine.

But what if you don’t like red wine or react badly to it? (Some people get headaches from drinking red wine.) The good news that there are other ways to get the benefits of resveratrol including buying resveratrol extracts.

But what has really taken the spotlight lately as the new superfood is Acai berries.  Pronounced ah-sigh-ee, these berries harvested from the Amazon have been featured on US news channels, BBC, and the celebrity circuit (Oprah Winfrey and co.). They have been promoted as the new super-supplement  to assist in weight loss and to retard the aging process.

What’s the big deal with acai berries? They are chock full of resveratrol. The French must be feeling so smug!

According to reports, one dose of Acai berry contains up to 30 times the amount in reveratrol as a glass of wine.

What are Superfoods – Acai Berry and more

Superfoods are those foods that do such things as lower cholesterol and blood pressure. In other words, they have several benefits to them that other foods don’t have. The Acai Berry is one of those foods. It provides energy, helps you to lose weight faster, lowers cholesterol, lowers blood pressure, and helps to prevent several serious diseases like heart disease. However, Acai Berry is not the only superfood, but is part of a family of superfoods. There are several that you can take advantage of.

Superfoods

So not only do you have the amazing Acai Berry, but you also have antioxidants in blueberries as well as potassium and vitamin C. Blueberries have been shown to lower the incidence of heart disease. They are also anti-inflammatory.

Here are other superfoods you may wish to know about:

• Fish is a superfood in that it contains Omega 3 fatty acids and a number of vitamins and minerals. Omega 3s reduce inflammation and blood clotting. You can also reduce heart attack.

• Bananas provide you with energy and consists of antioxidants that can help prevent cancer and heart disease.

• Kiwis are amongst the 5 most nutritious fruits in the world. They have fiber, potassium, Vitamin A, and Vitamin E. It is also full of antioxidants that fight against disease.

For lowering blood pressure it’s the antioxidant resveratrol in Acai berry that has the most benefits. And onn a cost analysis it’s cheaper to get resveratrol through Acai berry than than red wine.

When you consider that Acai Berry contains up to 30 times the amount of resveratrol as red wine then Acai Berry wins hands down on red wine in every way. (But I still like my glass of wine! )
