Dry Sprouted Barley Helps to Lower Blood Pressure

75 million American adults have high blood pressure (29%), that’s roughly 1 in every 3 adults that suffer from high blood pressure (Centers of Disease Control and Prevention). Blood pressures can change throughout the day, rising and falling after meals and activity level. If blood pressure stays high for a long period of time this can cause serious health problems.

The main problem with high blood pressure is that you often don’t know you have it, it’s referred to as the silent killer. The best way to lower and prevent high blood pressure is to live a healthier lifestyle. Mixing in sprouted grains is a nutritional substitute that also has benefits of lowering blood pressure.

Animal research from Korea showed that when researchers fed raw buckwheat extract and germinated buckwheat extract to hypertensive rats for five weeks the animals fed the germinated buckwheat had lower systolic blood pressure, while both groups exhibited significantly reduced oxidative damage in aortic endothelial cells. The scientists concluded that “these results suggest that germinated buckwheat extract has an antihypertensive effect and may protect arterial endothelial cells from oxidative stress.” (naturalNEWS - http://www.nyrnaturalnews.com)
