High Blood Pressure
? switch over to vegetarian food.
Are you a high blood
pressure (BP) patient? Then switch over to vegetarian food, to reduce
the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). One should be choosy in diet
selection to avoid CHD. For certain foods like non-vegetarians have direct
or indirect impact on the blood pressure.
According to a study
being conducted by the two scientists Mr.T.C.Raghuram and Ms. Kamalakrishnaswamy
of the National Institute of Nutrition (NIN).
It was apparent that
several elements in the vegetarian diet could be contributing to control
blood pressure. Proteins from animal sources in general have higher cholesterol
and fat content and hence consumption of proteins from vegetable sources
should be encouraged they argued, in the recent 'Nutrition news'.
