Is grilled meat increasing your blood pressure? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young medical minute. It’s almost summertime. That means it’s time to uncover your pool and break out the grill. But, before you do, a new study from the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health may convince you otherwise. Studies in the past have shown that certain foods can increase blood pressure. Although, true, this new study states that the way the food is cooked can also influence blood pressure. High temperature cooking and the “doneness” of your meat can contribute to your hypertension risk. If you already have high blood pressure, you may want to consider having fewer cookouts and more picnics this summer.
