To lower blood pressure and keep it under control eat more foods with potassium—bananas, tangerines, and oranges. For quick results try a diet of rice, fruit and vegetables.

Dr. Herbert Pierson, founder and former director of The National Cancer Institute's "designer food" program notes that the best natural source of antioxidants and phytochemicals is citrus fruit: "Fresh citrus has practically every species of phytochemical studied so far."

Good health to you,
