Two suggestions: Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Cass Ingram who are "alternative" physicians. These doctors are "certified" and are sincerely interested in helping people. They describe the benefits of "herbs" as well. You should go to your nearest library and get the information that is in their books. They have been persecuted and "soiled" with it because they want to be helpful to us, patients. They really helped me. Remember this: What shall we then say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? - Romans 8:31. The Lord loadeth daily with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. Psalm 68:19 -. I wish you good luck. Peace, love and God bless you.
Well, considering that herbs would be classified as a food (or at least one food additive), the only natural way to lower BP is exercising regularly.
What to do: Eat meat. In a recent Australian study, people suffering from hypertension, which has replaced 8 percent of their daily calories from bread, cereals, potatoes, or pasta with lean red meat experienced a four-point drop in their pressure systolic blood pressure in just eight weeks. Arginine, an amino acid in red meat, may help blood vessels dilate, lowering blood pressure. Plus, limiting starches lowers blood sugar and makes your body more efficient at burning fat.
Not That: Eat a diet low in fat. Removing fat from your diet can actually work against your goal, because healthy fats are essential to reduce blood pressure. For example, a study in the Journal of Medicinal Food found that men who have replaced their regular cooking oil, sesame oil for 45 days showed a decrease of blood pressure and glucose levels. Sesame oil contains polyunsaturated fatty acids and a compound called Sesamin, which stops your liver cholesterol. Search the list of ingredients in your salad dressing bottle sesame oil. We love Annie Naturals Organic Asian Sesame Dressing, garlic, which also contains heart health.
What to do: Simply squeeze a rubber ball. It seems to help - a lot, actually. According to a study published in the European Journal of Applied Physiology, people performing exercises while gripping eight weeks lowered their systolic blood pressure 15 points and their diastolic pressure of five years. "The blood pressure response to training grip is more than aerobic exercise," says the author, Maureen MacDonald, Ph.D. All it takes is 2 minutes of compression four times a day.
Not That: Train like a hamster running in a wheel. Overdose may limit the cardiovascular benefits of your workout has on your blood vessels, to add resistance training to the mix. Researchers at the University of Michigan found that men who performed three total body weight workouts a week for 2 months lowered their blood pressure readings averaged eight points.
What to do: Make it a Bloody Mary. According to a study published in the American Heart Journal, lycopene, an antioxidant in tomato juice can increase the power of the blood pressure, reducing your beverages. When the study participants ingested tomato juice extract for eight weeks, they experienced a drop of 10 points in their systolic blood pressure and a four-point drop in their diastolic reading. Add celery for added protection. Rich in fiber, celery has been used for centuries in Asian medicine to lower blood pressure.
Not That: Alcohol on an empty stomach. Keep your bar tab in check, and do not drink alcoholic beverages without eatin.
