Beets
Consuming beet juice would be helpful in controlling blood pressure in both the short and long run. This is because beets contain a high level of nitric oxide, which could make the blood vessels open and reduce blood pressure. The effect can be reported just after 1 day. Therefore, it is advisable to drink at least 1 cup of beet juice per day to keep your heart healthy. You would cook and consume the whole root or juice the beets. Consider roasting or stir-frying and stewing to create a tasty dish. Also, beets can be baked into chips. [2]
