Vitamin D
Studies have shown that those individuals with high blood pressure are more likely to have lower vitamin D levels in the body. Also, it has been proved that higher vitamin D levels in the blood can help reduce high blood pressure. More specifically, recent research of over 300,000 participants indicates that people with the highest levels of vitamin D had a 30% lower risk of high blood pressure, in comparison with those individuals with the lowest levels of this vitamin. Therefore, if you have or are at risk of high blood pressure, make sure to have its levels checked frequently and take sufficient supplements to reduce the risk. [5]
