Rumors: A major aircraft safety accident occurred in Cangshan, Fuzhou?

Myth: Can eating celery lower blood pressure?
Truth: Although the apigenin contained in celery has been shown in animal tests to have the effect of dilating blood vessels and lowering blood pressure, the results of animal tests are not necessarily applicable to humans. Moreover, apigenin is found in very low amounts in celery, and it is difficult to achieve the same high doses as in animal tests on a daily diet. Therefore, there is currently not enough evidence to prove that eating celery lowers blood pressure.
The "Guidelines for the Primary Management of Hypertension in China" mentions two main non-drug therapies for antihypertensive treatment: reducing salt intake and reasonable diet. Adding potassium to table salt or eating some fresh fruits and vegetables (containing potassium) can help control blood pressure. (Source: China Consumer Daily)
