A diet rich in minerals such as potassium, and possibly magnesium and calcium may cut a person's risk of developing coronary heart disease and stroke, suggests a new study. The new findings suggest that an increased consumption of these minerals through fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products might reduce high blood pressure risk and decrease blood pressure in people with hypertension, which is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular disease.
