Benefits:

Beet root

The high nitrate content of beetroot juice, which actually widens the blood vessels when it enters the body as nitrite, lowers blood pressure within one hour of ingestion.


Garlic

Garlic contains substances which prevent blood platelets from sticking together, which reduces the chance of life-threatening blood clots from forming and helps to improve circulation. Garlic also helps to prevent atherosclerosis which is the build-up of plaque in the arteries and a leading cause of heart attacks and strokes.


Cucumber

Cucumber has anti-hypertensive properties due to naturally occurring compounds called phthalides. These relax the tissues of the artery walls to increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure


Ginger

Ginger helps to reduce inflammation, has blood thinning effects, anti-hypertensive effect, cholesterol regulation, increased circulation, and overall heart health.


Lemon and carrot

Yellow and orange vegetables contain Vitamin C as well as several antioxidants such as carotenoids and bioflavonoids. These vegetables have been shown to help maintain a healthy heart and eyes.
