This oil + another oil = your systolic blood pressure drops
by 14 points.
And by the way, blending these 2 oils will do more for your
health, too.
For example: they can lower your LDL cholesterol by 26%.
Imagine that!
What’s more, these 2 cooking oils – which you can easily
find – are also really tasty. It just keeps getting better, doesn’t it?
Many experts recommend cooking with
healthy oils to lower high blood pressure. Imagine how wonderful it’d be if
using certain oils was almost as effective as blood pressure medications! A
research conducted in India has shown how a blend of two oils can have an
impressive effect on lowering blood pressure.
The research group has identified
how a combination of rice bran oil and sesame oil can work as well as blood
pressure medications and presented their findings in the American Heart Association’s
scientific session on high blood pressure research.
The group conducted a two-month
study in New Delhi, India on 300 men and women with mild to moderately high
blood pressure. The average age of the participants was 57.
The participants were divided into 3
groups – the first group received only a blood pressure-lowering medication
(Nifedipine) that acts as calcium channel blocker. The second group was
recommended the oil blend and the third group used a combination of oil blend
and the medication.
The participants used about an ounce
of the oil for cooking every day.
The results were simply amazing. All
the participants showed a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure.
Those who used the medication, showed a decrease in systolic pressure of about
16 points. The group that used only the oil blend showed a decrease in 14
points. The group that used a combination of medications and oil blend showed a
36-point drop.
