5 Foods You Should Consider A "Must Have," Added To Your Grocery List.

If you struggle with finding natural alternatives to lowering your blood sugar, blood pressure, and/or stress levels in your daily life, please try incorporating these foods into your daily meals.

1. Radishes are high in potassium and calcium. These minerals are known to reduce the risk of heart disease and blood pressure.

2. Beets have a good source of magnesium, manganese, potassium, copper and list of other minerals that have a good potential to lower blood pressure.

3. Ginger Root is loaded with vitamin B and C, phosphorus, calcium, and iron. These vitamins and minerals can help with lowering blood pressure and blood sugar.

4. Brussel sprouts are a great source of vitamin C and K, potassium, calcium, folate, and iron. They can help lower your blood pressure and blood sugar.

5. Cacao is also high in potassium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, and several other minerals.

The key to making these foods work for you and not against you is the way you prepare them. Adding high amounts of sugar and salt defeats the purpose of incorporating these foods into your diet.

Reducing stress in your life starts with a healthy diet. Exercising, sleeping well, and drinking enough water is a powerful way to maintain a good balance as well as keeping your immune system strong.
