The new natural solution to lower high blood pressure after pregnancy

One in ten women experiences high blood pressure during their first pregnancy1. However, blood pressure levels should return back to normal – ideally to a level of 120 / 80 – in the weeks after giving birth, but what if this doesn’t happen?

Some new mums find that their blood pressure levels don’t bounce back that quickly. They can suffer from high blood pressure for months, even years, after delivery2. This is not ideal as untreated hypertension can cause kidney damage, and raises the risk of heart attack, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases, which is the biggest killer in the UK.3

To help blood pressure return to its pre-pregnancy state, try help: blood pressure, the new 100% natural health solution from Works with Water Nutraceuticals, containing ingredients clinically proven to help maintain healthy blood pressure. Just take a sachet of help: blood pressure twice a day –add it to your favourite drink or soft food like yoghurt – for a minimum of six weeks for best possible results.

help: blood pressure combines the power of nature and clinical science to tackle the problem of hypertension. This innovative nutraceutical product is designed to bridge the gap between nutrition and pharmaceutical drugs, incorporating the best of both worlds: natural ingredients with clinically proven health benefits.

help: blood pressure contains 100% natural ingredients including dairy peptides – bioactive proteins extracted from milk by using advanced scientific methods – that have been proven to deliver results after a minimum period of six weeks.

How it works
Extensive research has shown that dairy peptides (lactrotripeptides), the key ingredient in help: blood pressure, reduces the chemical in the blood stream that causes blood vessels to narrow and constrict (angiotensin II)4. Therefore, a decrease of this chemical helps the blood vessels to relax and widen, and so the pressure of blood within the blood vessels is reduced.

Although dairy peptides can be found in milk, the beneficial blood pressure lowering effect is only activated when the bioactive peptides are extracted from the milk5. This means that drinking litres of milk is not going to lower your blood pressure. An easy and effective solution is to simply take a sachet of help: blood pressure twice a day to get the required measured dosage of dairy peptides.

In a recent consumer trial of 67 individuals with hypertension, 89% recorded a significant reduction in their blood pressure after taking the product6.

help: blood pressure is suitable for lactose intolerant people, vegetarians and diabetics and is gluten-free.
