From Potassium to Pressure: How Bananas Naturally Lower Blood Pressure

High blood pressure affects nearly half the adult population — and most don’t even know it.

Medications help, but what if one of the most powerful tools to regulate your blood pressure was already in your kitchen?

Enter the banana.

In this insightful episode, mindfulness and wellness expert Dr. Soha dives deep into the science of potassium — and how this essential mineral plays a critical role in balancing your body’s sodium levels, relaxing blood vessels, and lowering hypertension.

Spoiler: One medium banana packs about 420mg of potassium — and increasing your intake can lead to measurable drops in blood pressure, often within weeks.

Dr. Soha explains:

How potassium acts as a natural counterbalance to salt — a key driver of high BP

Why most people are deficient in potassium (and how processed diets make it worse)

The direct link between low potassium and increased risk of stroke, heart disease, and kidney stress

How bananas compare to supplements and medications — and when they work best together

Practical tips to boost potassium daily — with bananas, sweet potatoes, spinach, avocados, and more

This isn’t about extreme diets or giving up flavor.

It’s about smart, simple nutrition that supports your heart every single day.

🎧 Whether you're prehypertensive, on medication, or just trying to stay healthy — this episode will change how you see one of the world’s most underrated superfoods.

Because when it comes to blood pressure…

it’s not just about cutting salt.

It’s about adding potassium.

And one banana a day might be the sweetest step you take toward a healthier heart.
