Is there any studies on natural products that help to lower blood pressure?

I’m 22% body fat which is a bit below what I’m expected. I am meant to be between 25% – 30% so I’m not that far off. I eat well and such just want to be a bit healthier.

Also I have a Blood pressure test (at school so not very accurate) that said the bottom number was very high how do I lower that.
I was laughing while the test was done cause of my friends though.

Need to lower blood pressure about 15 points systolic and 10 points dyastolic. Already take prescription meds for this.

I have hypertension and I’m on medication which along with watching certain dietary items controls it nicely. I know the things that cause high blood pressure and try to stay away from them, however sometimes I know it is up and was wondering if there is anything you can do to knock it back down. If there are so many things that instantly raise it, it seems like there should also be things that would instantly lower it.

I really need to lose weight and lower my blood pressure. What is a diet that would address these issues?? I just realized that my microwave meals are LOADED with sodium. I am not a very good cook, also.

I had just gotten my blood pressure taken on a machine and the reading was like 140/70. I have been eating cold cut sandwiches every day for the entire year and believe that this is why it is high (it has never been high before this year). I was wondering if I could lower this in one week if i don’t eat anything high in salt?

I am looking for natural ways to lower blood pressure besides excercise. I know there are supplements and other things besides drugs.

I am not looking for an easy way out. I am looking for alternative ways to lower my blood pressure besides being put on medication. It does not mean I am not willing to diet and it does not mean that I don’t excercise. It means that I don’t want to be on hbp meds.

I was reading where one drink a day can lower blood pressure rates a bit for men, and reduce the rates of heart attacks. Does anyone in a medical field or from personal experience know the best type (wine, beer, ect.) to drink?
i am trying to find out what is the best form of alcohol, between maybe a red or white wine, beer, etc.

I’m going in for a medical exam to qualify for a scholarship and part of that includes a blood pressure check. The exam is in 4 days. Right now my blood pressure averages about 131/83. I need to get it to 120/80 or lower. I know taking aspirin and diuretics can help, but are there any other ways to lower blood pressure quickly that you might know of?

I hate to use prescription meds. I just don’t trust them not to cause other problems.
What food or natural remedies can I use to lower my moderately high blood pressure?

I got my blood pressure taken today and my reading was 124/74. I did some resarch and my Diastolic (74) reading was great, but discovered that my Systolic (124) was considered "prehypertension." Normal would be 120 or lower. I’m a ways away from having hypertension, but I want to get out of that "prehypertension" catergory. What are some effective ways of lowering my blood pressure?

I need to lower my blood pressure by the end of 3 days. I don’t need to lower it a whole lot, just a couple of points. please help and thanks.

For those of you with medical backround I have a question When I was examined by a doctor recently I was told I have high blood pressure and I felt at peace and not upset.

I have high blood pressure 166/89 – and I know I need to change my diet, but I’m not sure what foods are ggod to lower my blood pressure.

What over the counter drugs are used to lower blood pressure?

Even drugs that may only lower it as a side effect.

Thank you!

I know that when you lift weights, you get a temporary increase in blood pressure. But over the long run, does weight training ultimately lower your blood pressure?

I’ve read everywhere that exercise can help lower your blood pressure because it will help you lose weight. I’m already skinny and won’t lose anymore weight when exercising. Will it still help lower my blood pressure? In other words does exercise lower blood pressure ONLY because it lowers weight? Or are there other reasons/factors?

My dad has high blood pressure and was prescribed some medication to lower it. He has to keep taking it for as long as his doctor tells him it’s ok to stop but his medication (Tarka) is pretty expensive and sometimes he can’t afford it so he just stops taking it. I worry that something might happen to him when he does this. Does anyone know where I can find Tarka for less (he currently pays for a 30 day supply of Tarka 2/240mg) or do you know of a natural way to lower blood pressure?
