One effort to reduce high blood pressure is to eat a varied diet with a combination of proper nutrition. The results presented in the meeting of the American Heart Association in Orlando, United States, consumption of kiwi is mentioned three times in a day is quite effective in lowering hypertension.
Research conducted by Mette Svendsen of the University Hospital Oslo, Norway, for 8 weeks to 118 people aged 55 years and suffering from hypertension were.
The respondents were divided into two groups, one which is eating three kiwi fruit per day and the rest are eating foods that contain apple once a day.
