Natural Ways to Lower High Blood Pressure - No More Prescriptions

If you are searching for natural ways to lower your high blood pressure, there are plenty of ways to do it. Not only are prescription drugs high, they can also be potentially dangerous to your health. Synthetic drugs really aren't necessary to treat hypertension. Here are some natural ways to lower your blood pressure that work well.

As everyone knows, smoking is a risk to health from every standpoint. Smoking constricts blood vessels, which increases risk for hypertension. Number one most important thing to do, quit smoking. If you can't quit, cut down as much as possible.

There are many other natural ways to lower high blood pressure. Do you have alot of stress in your life? If so, try to get rid of the source of your stress. If that's not possible, try other ways to reduce it. Meditation, yoga, deep breathing or even a vacation are methods that often reduce stress. Make sure you are getting plenty of sleep too.

Are you overweight? Even just a little extra weight can raise your blood pressure. Try dropping just a few pounds and you will greatly improve your health. Exercise is also good for hypertension.

Vitamins, minerals and herbs are other natural methods you can use to lower high blood pressure. Natural herbs are fast gaining recognition for their ability to lower and control this disease.

Some of the vitamins, minerals and herbs that are especially effective are hawthorne berry, garlic, green tea, magnesium and folic acid. These are just a few of the ingredients in some of the supplements available.

As far as foods go, always avoid salt as much as possible. Salt is probably the biggest culprit in foods as far as high blood pressure goes. When shopping, check labels for sodium content. Many processed foods contain a huge amount of salt, so be aware of what you are buying.

If you are ready to throw away that expensive synthetic blood pressure medication, you should try some of the methods I have mentioned above. Prescription drugs really can be hard on your organs, especially the liver. I highly suggest you try some of the natural ways to lower high blood pressure - they work!
