Tip #5: Use Your Beans-Beans are high in phytosterols and ligans which are substances that bind cholesterol to the small intestine and prevent it from being absorbed in the bloodstream according to Keri Gans, R.D. a dietician in NYC. If you eat one-third of a cup of cooked or canned beans a day, you can slash your chances of a being in the women’s heart attack group by 30%.

Tip #6: Do A Check. Did you know women with vitamin d deficits in their 20′s to early 40′s are three times more likely to develop high blood pressure later in life? This is according to a recent University of Michigan study. Since a whopping 75% of Americn fall short on their vitamin intake, women should have their doctor check vitamin d levels with a blood test.

Tip #7: Wear earplugs to bed? It’s true. It does help because nighttime noise increases your odds of developing high blood pressure by 45%. It interrupts sleep and creates stress according to researcher Theo Bodin. Earplugs can block all that noise.
