A Bright Idea to Lower Blood Pressure
Big Pharma loves to take advantage of people with hypertension.
According to the latest guidelines, about 1 in 3 Americans have hypertension (high blood pressure) … and an additional 1 in 3 has prehypertension.
That’s over 100 million people who pay into the mainstream medical system for a condition that you don’t need drugs to fix.
Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to keep your money in your own wallet (and out of Big Pharma’s bank accounts).
Today, I want to tell you about a method I’ve been following for decades. It offers a drug-free way to help keep blood pressure under control.
Another day, another WIN for the healing powers of the sun.
Over the past few months, I’ve shared studies with you showing how sunlight…
- Boosts mood
- Acts as a disinfectant
- Lowers your risk of multiple sclerosis
- Improves sleep
- Prevents nearsightedness
- And much more
Now, it’s time to add another to the list—and it’s a BIG ONE.
Because this time, the study shows how spending more time in the sun can help combat one of the biggest risk factors for heart disease: High blood pressure.
This research revealed that sunlight directly reduces blood pressure levels—even in those with relatively normal numbers.
It works because the top layers of our skin contain nitric oxide, and the UVA rays in sunlight increase nitric oxide.
This critical compound helps your blood vessels WIDEN. This increases blood flow and oxygenation rates and decreases blood pressure.
Sunlight alone won’t solve your blood pressure problems. But it’s an important piece of the puzzle that can help you keep your health under control.
No drugs necessary.
P.S. Better blood pressure isn’t the only benefit sunlight delivers. My earlier post, 6 Reasons You Need MORE Sunlight, is practically guaranteed to turn you into a sun worshiper.
