Berries are especially often present in the diet of people with hypertension. Many types of berries, such as aronia, viburnum, cranberries, lingonberries and blueberries, help relieve symptoms of high blood pressure. However, there is another berry that is a real salvation for hypertensive patients – black currant.
“Currants contain a lot of antioxidants, which have a good effect on the condition of blood vessels. In particular, they improve the elasticity of the inner wall — endothelium. This is also one of the factors influencing blood pressure,” — doctors noted.
