Ever have stomach problems? Do you want to try and deal with it naturally? Well, reach for the peppermint. It is one of the best natural helpers for digestion and might be why restaurants give you an after dinner mint. You can also keep some peppermint candy in your pocket for when you need it (easy to carry) or keep some peppermint tea in the house (no sugar). I do not know about you, but I like the taste of peppermint so this is a great digestion aid for me.
DHA and EPA has been shown to lower blood pressure. This effect has been shown in some clinical studies. I also know people it has worked for. As with almost anything, it does not work for everyone all the time, but it might be worth trying if you have blood pressure that is a little higher than you would like, but still in the "normal" range. Most of the studies I read used 3 to 6 grams of omega 3's a day and the lowering effect was about 3 to 5 mm Hg in the systolic pressure and about 2 to 3 mm Hg in the diastolic pressure. If you have high blood pressure see a doctor. This is not a cure or a treatment. If you are on any medication or have problems clotting see a doctor before you start DHA and EPA. |
