Can mineral water help regulate blood pressure?

Mineral water directly addresses the underlying cause of high blood pressure through a natural mineral correction. Deficiencies of calcium and magnesium contribute to the development of high blood pressure. These minerals help relax the walls of your blood vessels. Replenishing them through mineral water causes measurable effects.

Mineral Correction

  • Calcium deficiency links directly to hypertension
  • Magnesium regulates vascular smooth muscle contraction
  • Replenishes electrolytes essential for blood pressure balance

Vascular Improvement

  • Bicarbonate enhances nitric oxide production
  • Improves artery elasticity and blood flow
  • Reduces oxidative stress in vessel walls

Sodium Counteraction

  • Potassium balances sodium effects on fluid retention
  • Calcium aids sodium excretion through kidneys
  • Prevents sodium-induced vascular constriction

Clinical evidence shows remarkable reductions in blood pressure. Studies reveal a 5-7 mmHg systolic decline in borderline hypertensives in less than a month. This represents a clinically significant drop and occurs without the use of medication. I have seen clients reduce their antihypertensive drugs through consistent use of mineral waters.

Bicarbonate is essential for healthy vasculature. This natural compound in mineral water increases *nitric oxide production* in the body. Nitric oxide serves as a vasodilator, increasing blood flow. With the intake of this mineral, the arteries become more flexible.

Optimal results require specific consumatory habits. You need at least one liter each day for any measurable effects. If your problem is hypertension, select low-sodium mineral waters. Include potassium-rich foods, such as bananas, to help replenish your body's potassium levels. Your vascular system will respond most vigorously to constant mineral feeding.
