Lower Your Blood Pressure With Fried Eggs

Keeping your blood pressure in a healthy range is essential to prevent heart attack and stroke. And while you probably already know that maintaining a healthy weight and exercising regularly are two ways to keep blood pressure under control, a recent study indicates that eating eggs can help too – especially fried eggs.

When you eat an egg, enzymes in your stomach and small intestine produce blood pressure-lowering peptides. And those peptides act like ACE inhibitors, the widely prescribed blood pressure-lowering medications. But unlike pharmaceuticals, eggs don’t come with a long list of warnings and detrimental side effects.
