Lifestyle plays an important part in all aspects of your health. There are many factors that can cause or contribute to high blood pressure. Some of these are diet, lack of exercise, stress, alcohol and smoking.

Natural Ways to Lower Blood Pressure

2. Alcohol - Drinking alcohol in excess contributes to high blood pressure. Many people in the medical field now say that having a couple of drinks per day is healthy, but if you drink more than that try to cut back.

3. Diet and Exercise - One of the easiest natural ways to lower blood pressure is to add foods that are healthy. Fresh fruits and vegetables are a good choice. Limiting fried and processed foods will help hypertension. Salt is a big culprit, so try to cut back. Season your foods with other spices. Try to get just 15 or 20 minutes per day of exercise. This helps dramatically!

4. Stress - Do you worry a lot or have a stressful situation in your life? Try meditation, deep breathing and exercise. If the source of your stress is your job, take a vacation. Sometimes just getting away for a few days can really help reduce stress levels.

5. Natural treatment - Studies have shown that natural herbs and minerals can greatly reduce hypertension. There are many products available today that have proven to lower high blood pressure. When it comes to natural or synthetic choices, natural is always best.
