  • Avocados & bananas - loaded w/potassium- a vital mineral for keeping BP low.
  • Complex carbs (oatmeal & whole grains) are digested more slowly and don’t spike blood sugar
  • Drink half your body weight in oz. daily and sip non caffeinated tea for calming frazzled nerves
  • If you eat meat, focus on heart healthy salmon, and tuna that are rich in omega-3 fats and manage adrenaline levels.
