"But high blood pressure can often be prevented or reduced by eating more potassium.
Potassium helps to balance out the negative effects of salt and lower your blood pressure, according to Blood Pressure UK.
It advises: “To reap the benefits of more potassium in your life, try to eat at least five portions of fruit and vegetables every day. (A portion is about the same size as your closed fist.)
“Not only will this help to lower your blood pressure, it will also help you to avoid certain cancers, bowel problems and even heart attacks or strokes.”"

"Good sources of potassium include potatoes, sweet potatoes, bananas, tomato sauce (without added salt or sugar), orange juice, tuna (fresh, frozen or tinned, but avoid tuna packed in brine), yoghurt and fat-free milk.
But it warns: “If you have kidney disease, or are taking certain blood pressure medication, a large increase in potassium cold be harmful.
“In this case, avoid taking potassium supplements and check with your doctor before drastically increasing your potassium intake.”"
