Promoting healthy blood pressure
Sep 2017High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a significant factor in general cardiovascular health. Therefore, claims to control or reduce blood pressure are popping up on a variety of products.

Organic and natural claims also strongly coincide with blood pressure related ones.
