11.Eleven Hypertension
In the United States, a third of men suffer from hypertension, while the rate among women is only slightly lower. This has been a prevalent problem for some time, but dandelion can help alleviate the condition and prevent additional complications. As it can begin as early as age 20, no one should ignore their health despite the common perception that it is a condition of the elderly.
This is particularly true for those with a history of hypertension in their family. The fact that dandelion increases urination frequency means that it will lower your blood pressure, thereby reducing the risk of catastrophic events such as a stroke. It also reduces the levels of bad cholesterol in your blood as a result of its antioxidant content, thereby removing obstructions from your vessels that would otherwise raise your blood pressure.
