Study suggests boosting potassium over cutting salt better lowers blood pressure, especially in men.
Researchers from the University of Waterloo suggest increasing dietary potassium relative to sodium intake is more effective for lowering blood pressure than just reducing sodium.
This finding, published in the American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, highlights that eating foods rich in potassium, like bananas and broccoli, may better control high blood pressure, a condition affecting over 30% of adults globally and leading to heart disease and stroke.
The study also found that men may benefit more from this dietary change.
