INTRODUCTION
If you’re like many, taking prescription medications to treat high blood pressure
symptoms may not always be necessary.
While I DO NOT recommend that you stop taking any currently prescribed medications,
I do suggest that you talk to your doctor about natural alternatives.
Thankfully, many health experts believe in a more holistic approach to addressing
health issues.
Simple measures, such as adding nutritious fruits, vegetables and herbs to your diet
has proven effective in treating high blood pressure, as well as many other medical
conditions, including high blood sugar and high cholesterol.
NOTE: I go into great detail about how to naturally CURE your High Blood Pressure in
my best-selling product, the Blood Pressure Solution. I receive testimonials DAILY from
customers who are delighted by how much they have been able to lower their Blood
Pressure naturally, WITHOUT harmful, expensive medication.

SO WHY JUICE?
While fruits and vegetables provide a wealth of beneficial Vitamins, minerals, fiber, and
powerful antioxidants, most of us do not consume enough to meet the basic
requirements for protecting our overall health. But the good thing is that, just by
consuming your fruits and vegetables in juice form, you can really get more bang for
your buck, so-to-speak. For example, having just an 8 ounce glass of fresh, raw fruit
and/or vegetable juice can meet about a third of your daily requirements, depending on
your age, gender and activity level.
This is because the concentrated amount of nutrients in natural fruit and vegetable
juices are directly absorbed into your bloodstream, and do not require digestion
(such as the case when eating whole fruits and vegetables). By skipping the digestion
time, this means that the nutrients get to work quickly, giving you increased energy,
often in about 15 minutes.
4 BloodPressureSolution.com Copyright 2013 Primal Health, LP
Additionally, raw juices help us to meet our daily requirements of water, unlike coffee,
soda and other beverages, which actually draw water from our bodies’ stores. Not to
mention, these other beverages also bring with them many added chemicals and sugars
that are harmful to your health.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE IN A SMOOTHIE AND A JUICE?
Both smoothies and juices contain liquefied versions of their fruit and veggie
ingredients. The main difference is that when preparing a smoothie, blending of the ingredients is required. A smoothie could be compared to a milkshake, in that it has a
thicker consistency compared to juice. Whereas a juice can be served as is, poured
over ice, or also blended with ice, if you prefer.
EQUIPMENT REQUIRED?
You might be wondering, “Why go to all the trouble of making my own juice when I can just buy it at the store?”. Enjoying the health benefits that raw fruit and vegetable
juice offers does not require fancy equipment. Purchasing a good quality, ready-made
juice is certainly a healthy option for anyone who doesn’t want to invest in a juicer.
However, there are a few key points to keep in mind before grabbing a product from the
store shelves or refrigerated case. Many of the juices available at the market have been
pasteurized (heated process), which can DESTROY the nutrients that were once
available. Even fruit that has been peeled and left refrigerated can lose a significant
percentage of its valuable nutrients.
Additionally, it’s very important to carefully read the ingredients list, as many store-
bought juices (many times labeled “juice drinks”) can contain VERY LITTLE real fruit
juice and are packed with processed sugar and artificial ingredients. If the primary
ingredients listed aren’t “water” and “fruit juice”, then you may be getting more than what
5 BloodPressureSolution.com Copyright 2013 Primal Health, LP
you bargained for.
So the two main benefits of preparing your own raw juices are:
1. You can get the MAXIMUM amount of nutrients by extracting them fresh from the
source (and without any unwanted additives).
2. When you control the ingredients and preparation, you can rest assured that
you’re getting all the health benefits, in addition to the options of creating your
own tasty blends to laser-target the benefits you wish to receive from the juice.
BLENDER VS. JUICER, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE
Both can work effectively in liquefying your ingredients, but they do perform different
functions for a variety of purposes. Blenders and food processors are excellent
appliances for chopping and pureeing fresh produce for your favorite recipes, and work
well for blending some of your fruit and vegetable ingredients (such as bananas,
avocados, and some seasonings, which do not contain enough water to “juice”). Your
blender will be quite useful for making pulped juices.
But remember, to get the MAXIMUM amount of nutrients from your produce, you must
effectively eliminate your body’s extra step of digesting the pulp. To do this, you’ve got
to get the liquid separated from the fiber...and that’s going to take the power of a juicing
machine to get the job done.
TO PEEL OR NOT TO PEEL?
Many fruits and veggies harness valuable nutrients in their skin or rind, and some even
more-so than the flesh, itself. Most suggest that those with hard or inedible skins (such
as mango, melons, kiwifruit, pineapple), should be peeled. For most people who juice
regularly, the choice to peel is a matter of taste (as the outer-covering of some fruits
and veggies can make juice bitter), as well as the power of your juicer (it’s ability to
6 BloodPressureSolution.com Copyright 2013 Primal Health, LP
handle the sometimes ‘heavy-duty’ task).
Another consideration is that, many fruits and vegetables have been treated with a waxy
coating, and possibly exposed to chemical pesticides. Purchasing organic fruits and
veggies is a good way to avoid exposure to pesticides and other unnecessary
chemicals. So whether you peel or not it up to you... but definitely give them a good
wash, either way. Just scrub gently, using a natural bristle brush under cold running
water to wash away any external contaminants.
TYPES OF JUICERS
Masticating: The squeezing force of this type of juicer uses gears to crush the food as
it forces the juice through fine strainers, without generating heat or friction that can
reduce the nutrient value.
Centrifugal: The spinning force of this appliance adds oxygen to the juice (giving it a
frothy texture), using a basket that shreds the food and pushes the juice through a fine
strainer.
WHICH IS BEST?
Either type of juicer gets the job done, depending on your preferences. Before setting
out on a shopping excursion, it is recommended to do some research and see what
type of product will fit your needs. Pricing can certainly be a factor to consider, so doing
your homework ahead of time is worth it.
There are a slew of options in retail and specialty stores, as well as online. A great idea
might be to investigate a few types and brands that you’re interested in, and then go
online and look for video demonstrations that will show you exactly what the appliance
7 BloodPressureSolution.com Copyright 2013 Primal Health, LP
is capable of, how it works, as well as valuable customer reviews.
Regardless of which product you purchase, it’s important to read the instruction manual
and follow the manufacturer’s directions for using the appliance, as these can vary by
product.
KEY NUTRIENTS FOR NATURALLY REDUCING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE
Potassium helps to lower blood pressure by weakening the effects of excessive sodium
intake, maintaining adequate fluid and electrolyte balance.
Magnesium has shown to reduce blood pressure levels in hypertensive patients.
Magnesium works with calcium to stabilize blood pressure. An average intake ratio of
2:1 (magnesium to calcium) works well for most.
Calcium, along with potassium and magnesium, has been shown to play a role in
maintaining healthy blood pressure levels, with adequate intake. Calcium, which helps
smooth the lining of your blood vessels, actually depends on magnesium to be properly
deposited. Therefore magnesium is largely important to bone health, as well.
Vitamin C works as an antioxidant in fending off colds, but it also helps blood pressure.
Vitamin C has shown to be effective in maintaining healthy blood vessels, while the
natural diuretic effects allow blood vessel walls to relax.
Vitamin D3, teamed with calcium for building strong bones, also plays a role in
angiogenesis (your body’s ability to grow new blood vessels from your pre-existing
ones).
Vitamin E also works as an antioxidant, but is also involved in the process of creating
red blood cells and improving blood flow.
Nitrates, from dietary sources such as raw vegetables, are converted to nitric oxide
within the body. This process allows the blood vessels to relax and dilate, promoting
better blood flow and decreased pressure.
Omega-3 fatty acids, found in many types of fish and meats, as well as fruits and
8 BloodPressureSolution.com Copyright 2013 Primal Health, LP
vegetables, aid in naturally reducing blood pressure, by promoting relaxation of the
arteries and reducing inflammation.
Phytochemicals are naturally produced by plant-based foods. While not essential
nutrients, the properties of these types of chemicals are proven to have positive health
effects. Within the classes of phytochemicals are a variety of complex bioactive
compounds, found in many fruits and vegetables, that each offer unique and
individualized benefits.
Many phytochemicals also act as antioxidants, which work to protect your biological
system from cell damage, due to oxidative stress, which can both cause and be the
result of disease.
In addition to antioxidants, many phytonutrients are also important to your health, as
they are on the front line, helping to fight the inflammation commonly associated with
many chronic health issues, including high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease.
