Chicken Soup Against High Blood Pressure
Filed in archive Cardiovascular Health , Diet , Studies on October 20, 2008
Looks like chicken soup isn't just for the common cold any longer. It could have a new role against high blood pressure, according to Japanese researchers.
Apparently, chicken breasts have collagen proteins which have similar effects to ACE inhibitors - the main medications for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension).
But since the collagen proteins are only available in small amounts, chicken soup can only be used alongside medication.

Yum, winter is going to be fun. I am assuming this chicken soup is the low sodium variety!

Kiwi fruit can help and support blood pressure and circulation.
Kiwi fruit is an outstanding source of vitamin c which cleanses the body and helps resistance to disease, it is also rich in potassium making it suitable for people with high blood pressure or oedema
