Dark chocolate and tea naturally lower high blood pressure, study finds.

A European Journal of Preventive Cardiology study reveals that dark chocolate, tea, apples, and grapes, rich in flavan-3-ol, lower blood pressure. The study, involving 5,000 participants, showed a significant drop in both systolic and diastolic pressure, comparable to medication. These foods also improve artery function, offering broader heart protection, particularly for those with pre-existing conditions. Consult your doctor for medical advice.
