Jillian was recently featured in The List, talking about what happens to your body when you eat yogurt every day.
According to the Mayo Clinic, hypertension can lead to various health problems, including heart attack, stroke, aneurysm, dementia, and more. That’s why it’s important to regularly measure your blood pressure and see your doctor if it’s elevated. The good news, however, is that regular yogurt eaters are already on the defense against hypertension, according to functional nutrition therapy practitioner Jillian Warwick.
“Your blood pressure will improve because the potassium found in yogurt can play a major role in regulating blood pressure levels,” the expert shared with The List. “Yogurt has over 600 milligrams of potassium in a single eight-ounce serving – that’s almost a fifth of your RDA for this heart-healthy mineral.”
