Normal Blood Pressure In 4 Weeks WITHOUT Drugs

By Dr. Scott Olson, ND Posted January 19, 2025

High blood pressure affects millions of us. And these hypertension (high blood pressure) medications work, but they often come with unwanted side effects.

However, we might have another option.

A new study confirms that an often-overlooked root vegetable can help normalize blood pressure FAST…

Research conducted by scientists at Queen Mary University of London revealed that drinking just one glass of beet juice daily helps reverse high blood pressure, bringing it back to normal within four weeks.

When you look closer at this ruby-red superfood, it soon becomes clear why.

Beets are brimming with inorganic dietary nitrates. Your body converts these compounds into nitrite and then nitrites into nitric oxide, a natural blood vessel relaxant.

In other words, the beet juice ultimately allows blood to flow more freely, naturally reducing high blood pressure.

Study participants who drank 250ml (about one cup) of beet juice daily saw significant improvements in their blood pressure. But here’s the catch—when they stopped drinking it, their numbers went back up.

This suggests that consistency is key. It’s not about quick fixes but rather making this superfood a regular part of your daily routine.

To maximize the juice’s benefits:

• Start with a smaller serving to let your body adjust
• Choose organic when possible
• Drink your juice within 30 minutes of preparing it
• Stay consistent with your daily intake
• Combine with other heart-healthy habits like regular exercise and stress management

For variety, you can also eat fresh beets roasted or raw and add a beet powder supplement to your favorite smoothie.

Not a fan of beets? Try some of these other nitrate-rich foods…

• Leafy greens (especially arugula and spinach)
• Fennel
• Pumpkin
• Celery

Remember, while beet juice could help you battle hypertension, it’s not a replacement for prescribed blood pressure medications. Always talk to your healthcare provider before making changes to your treatment plan. They can monitor your progress and adjust your meds as needed.

Oh, and don’t panic if your urine develops a pink color after eating beets. This harmless condition, called “beeturia,” simply means the pigments are passing through your system.
