Omega-3 fatty acids reduce blood pressure: study - Yahoo! News:
"A diet with liberal servings of fish, nuts and seeds rich in nutrients called omega-3 fatty acids can help lower a person's blood pressure, according to a study released on Monday.

'A large percentage of people between ages 20 and 60 have a rise in blood pressure, and by middle age many have high blood pressure,' said Dr. Jeremiah Stamler, professor emeritus of preventive medicine at Northwestern University in Chicago, who worked on the study."
