Fight Hypertension

If you have been diagnosed with high blood pressure, you probably have a prescription for it. What a lot of people don't realize is that you can bring it down naturally. By the time you finish reading this you'll have an idea of what you can do to reduce your pressure naturally. Here are a few things you can do.

1. Using garlic has long been recommended as the leading herb for the natural treatment of numerous health ailments. Studies show that raw GARLIC aids in overall cardiovascular health, including lowered blood pressure, with no side effects. Garlic and onions should be consumed in abundance. Both are excellent for your heart, serving to stabilize your blood pressure, as well as lowering bad cholesterol and increasing the good cholesterol.

Garlic is a fairly obvious one on the list and you can get it from any pharmacy or even from the supermarket as an odorless capsule. As for the others I'm not so sure but if you want to try then best go see a herbal specialist or do some Google checking.

2. Fruits and vegetables eating 8 - 10 servings of fruits and vegetables and three servings of low- fat dairy foods a day has been shown to decrease blood pressure. Only 30% of the milk sold is fat- free or 1% (low- fat), and milk fat is the third largest contributor of saturated fat in adult diets and first in children.

3. Fiber, most foods that are high in fiber have both soluble and insoluble fiber in them. Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy products. A recent clinical study, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, provided exciting evidence on the ability to lower blood pressure by eating a diet low in salt and rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy products.

4. Exercise should consist of cardio and strength training, both challenging enough to get you winded but not gasping; and your muscles pleasantly burning but not hurting. Exercise can only be beneficial because of its impact on the body mass as well as on the muscular mass. The size of muscular mass can increase the energetics linked to the functioning of our metabolism ( energy needed for breathing, digesting, etc.) and promote the usage of fat reserves.

Hypertension is called a "silent killer'' because it does not cause symptoms unless it is severely high and, without your knowing it, causes major organ damage if not treated. Hypertension affects more males than females and more blacks and Latinos than whites. The lifestyle characteristics that can put you at risk of developing hypertension include obesity, lack of exercise, a diet rich in sodium, and excessive alcohol consumption.

Blood pressure can be controlled by permanent diet and lifestyle changes; this includes stress, maintaining proper weight ( not more than 5lbs. Overweight), and eating foods containing compounds that reduce blood pressure such as celery, garlic, and fresh fruits and vegetables. As always consult with your doctor before making any changes in your treatment.

Now that you have a few options, what are you going to do? Whatever you decide, do it now before it's too late.
