High Blood Pressure

[claytonpiano]

I want to lower mine naturally. I'm losing weight, exercising, laying off salt. My Brother-in-law told me to drink tomato juice (low sodium) and others have said garlic. What do you folks recommend?

My first thought also was garlic.

Will check my books for more.

You might check out the possibility of Hawthorn. Also, be sure to find out what your cholesterol count is, both LDL and HDL. That would be something you would want to control also. Best way I know is to watch your diet and add oatmeal to it if possible.

 

Don't forget stress relief with high blood pressure. Diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes are really helpful if there's no underlying health issues.

 

Good luck with it...

My book lists 3 things that can help. Garlic Vitamin E and Cayenne pepper. Ive been giving my husband doses of garlic and have been adding cayenne pepper to several meals in minimal amounts. I hope this helps.
