Tired of High Blood Pressure? Why One MD Says to Skip the Produce Aisle
If you’re one of the millions of Americans concerned about blood pressure readings above the healthy 120/80 mark, you may have been told to overhaul your diet and lifestyle. But what if a simpler, more direct method existed?
According to Dr. Rick Cohen, a top MD from Duke University, the conventional wisdom about eating fruits and vegetables might be missing the point when it comes to prime heart health. His guidance shifts the focus to a powerful, often overlooked source of nutrients: the seed.
"If your blood pressure is high… go to the source. Go to the SEED.” - Dr. Rick Cohen, MD
Dr. Cohen's philosophy is rooted in the remarkable nutritional density of seeds—which he notes can hold 10 times more nutrients than the fruits or vegetables they grow into. This potent concentration of vital compounds is why he directs patients with high blood pressure to look past the produce and directly to the core.
