With high blood pressure, potassium relaxes the blood vessels and reduces the pressure in the cardiovascular system. It may reduce the risk of developing diseases such as coronary heart disease, atherosclerosis, which may reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.

     As mentioned earlier, quince are rich in antioxidants, but other vitamins, such as vitamins C and E, may help boost your immune system in a variety of ways. For example, vitamin C stimulates the immune system to increase the number of white blood cells, the body's first line of defense against pathogens, viruses, and bacteria.

     Copper and zinc, along with many other trace elements, are essential for the formation of red blood cells. High red blood cell production increases blood circulation throughout the body, providing more oxygen throughout the body.
