Named an unexpected fruit that saves from high blood pressure

Scientists have named a fruit that can effectively lower blood pressure - and it's not a banana or pomegranate, as previously thought.

According to a new study, kiwi has a pronounced hypotensive effect.

Medical professionals explain this by the high content of antioxidants, vitamin C and potassium in kiwi. These substances strengthen blood vessels, improve blood circulation, and help remove excess fluid from the body, which reduces the load on the heart.

According to cardiologists, including kiwi in the diet can be a simple but effective step in combating high blood pressure. However, specialists warn that the fruit is not a replacement for drug therapy and should be used as part of a comprehensive approach to health.
