A 2014 study in Nigeria found that honey helped to lower blood pressure within 60 minutes of consumption, thereby lowering your risk of heart disease or stroke.
What Is High Blood Pressure?
High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a condition in which the blood vessels are pressured to the extent that it causes damage to the body. It can affect your heart, kidneys and brain. High blood pressure can be treated with lifestyle changes and medication.
How Does Raw Organic Honey Help To Lower High Blood Pressure?
Raw honey helps to lower high blood pressure in two different ways. First, raw honey contains potassium. Potassium is an important mineral that helps to reduce blood pressure and can be found in many fruits and vegetables, such as bananas or tomatoes. Studies show that eating foods with a high potassium content can help you maintain a healthy heart and lower blood pressure levels over time.
Second, raw organic honey has antioxidant properties that fight inflammation in the body by neutralizing free radicals (chemicals produced when your cells metabolize oxygen).
Free radicals are believed to contribute to health issues such as heart disease, arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease; therefore reducing inflammation can help prevent these conditions from developing or worsening over time.
In addition to its antioxidant properties, raw organic honey also contains high levels of vitamin C and zinc—vitamins that may help reduce blood pressure by lowering stress hormones like cortisol.
Raw organic honey is the best option for blood pressure control as it contains the most antioxidants compared to other types of honey.
Antihistamines work by blocking histamine receptors on the surface of cells found throughout the body, preventing them from triggering inflammation responses (raw organic honey has anti-inflammatory properties). Histamines released from mast cells during an allergic reaction cause blood vessels to dilate which leads to increased blood pressure levels (hypertension). By blocking these receptors with antihistamines this effect can be prevented from occurring which means lower BP levels over time.
How To Use Raw Organic Honey To Relieve Hypertension
The best way to use raw organic honey to treat ailments is by mixing a teaspoon of it in warm (not hot) water, and drinking it on an empty stomach half an hour before breakfast.
Only use real honey, not fake honey:
Remember that the honey you use must be real honey. Commercially processed cheap honey such as that found in supermarkets has lost most of its properties. It is no better than sugar in water.
Only use raw organic honey. Raw means the honey is unpasteurised and has not been heat treated. Organic means the honey is independently certified to be free of chemicals and antibiotics harmful to humans.
We recommend using 20+ ACTIVE Raw Organic Coffee Bean Honey From Mexico due to its high potassium and vitamin C content.
