Ten, simple delicious steps to harness the power of the lifestyle changes, including elements of the DASH diet, proven to be the most effective medicine for hypertension: blood pressure power foods li

Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) September 13, 2013 -- ‘Blood Pressure Down’ written by nutritionist and author Dr Janet Brill has won the 2013 Living Now Book Award that recognizes the Year's Best Books for Better Living.

‘Blood Pressure Down’, the authoritative guide to lowering blood pressure in 4 weeks without prescriptions drugs won the Gold Award in Health/Wellness category.

With the Blood Pressure Down plan, I hope you will see how you can focus on the “cans” rather than the “cannots.” You will learn about all the delicious foods and activities that you can enjoy while making your health a priority.

High blood pressure can be lowered and prevented quickly and safely—without the side effects of many blood pressure medications in ten simple and delicious steps through a unique plan that harnesses the power of the lifestyle changes, reveals this latest book by renowned dietitian Janet Brill PhD, RD, LDN, CSSD.

Blood Pressure Down is the third book by Dr Janet, who is an expert in the field of health and cardiovascular disease prevention and lifestyle nutrition.

Earlier, her book ‘Prevent A Second Heart Attack, 8 Foods, 8 Weeks to Reverse Heart Disease’ had won the Living Now Book Award for 2011, the International Book Award in Health: General category, the Best Books Award from USA Book News and the Annual National Health Information Award.

About the Living Now Awards

The Living Now Book Awards celebrate the innovation and creativity of newly published books that enhance the quality of our lives, from cooking and fitness to relationships and mature living. The awards are open to all books written in English and intended for the North American market.

The gold, silver and bronze medalists in this year’s Living Now Book Awards offer a list of books representing the fastest-growing segments of book publishing today, and the Living Now Book Awards help demonstrate the importance of these books to readers and their vitality in the marketplace. The awards are presented by Jenkins Group of Traverse City, Michigan.

About BLOOD PRESSURE DOWN

BLOOD PRESSURE DOWN: The 10-Step Plan to Lower Your Blood Pressure in 4 Weeks–Without Prescription Drugs (Three Rivers Press; May 7th, 2013) by Dr Janet, unveils ten, simple delicious steps to harness the power of the lifestyle changes, including elements of the DASH diet, proven to be the most effective medicine for hypertension: blood pressure power foods like bananas, yogurt, soy, and dark chocolate, as well as exercise and stress reduction.

Backed by solid research, Brill cuts through the medical jargon to explain how and why each step in her program works. The Blood Pressure Down plan is both thorough and accessible, including many convenient checklists, charts, meal plans, and over fifty delicious heart-healthy recipes that make incorporating each step into a heart-healthy lifestyle easy, practical, and never overwhelming.

Cardiovascular disease is America’s leading cause of death. Every thirty nine seconds, we lose another American to a fatal heart attack or stroke, and yet, despite the fact that the largest risk factor for cardiovascular death—high blood pressure—is both reversible and preventable, seventy-six million adult Americans continue to suffer from this life-threatening condition, and another two million will be diagnosed over the next year.
