Can’t promise that these suggestions will work but they can.
1. Cut back on the salt. It’s terribly hard to go cold turkey on salt but lower the amount you use gradually and the change will be much easier to deal with. Watch for hidden sodium – read labels. A diet soda has more sodium in it than a small bag of potato chips!
2. Drink more water. Plain, old water.
3. Exercise. A 1/2 hour walk a day will help. Not only helps you relax but will help with #4.
4. Lose weight if you need to. The extra weight makes it harder for the blood to circulate and adds a number of other risk factors. Even a modest 15-20 lb weight loss might be enough to get your numbers where they should be. Just make better food choices. Eat more fresh fruit, veggies and whole grains.
5. Consider taking supplements and a good strong multi-vitamin. Supplements to take are potassium, magnesium and calcium. These three have the biggest influence on blood pressure.
Eat foods high in potassium.
For supplements-
Calcium-1,500-3,000 mg daily and Magnesium 750-1,000 mg
and potassium.. deficiencies have been linked to high blood pressure
also Coenzyme Q10, improve heart function along with you essential fatty acids garlic, selenium and vitamin E
and eat less salt
Dehydration can contribute to high blood pressure by making your veins and arteries work far harder than they should have to ….. hydrate yourself properly and ditch any sodas, pop or soft drinks and cut right back on caffeine and alcohol too if you drink any as they’ll all dehydrate you terribly and rob you of your essential B complex of vitamins and vitamin C as well as leach the calcium straight out of your bones by disrupting the calcium phosphorus balance…… vitamin C rich foods will assist in lowering high blood pressure as will foods rich in magnesium soooo eat more leafy and green vegies which are rich in vitamin C, B vitamins, calcium and magnesium, fibre, water …….. eat them raw or lightly steamed as cooking devitalises them.
Ditch eating processed salt as it will contribute enormously to high blood pressure ………. replace table salt which has been processed with chlorine and bleach and pulverised to within an inch of its life and been stripped of all the rich minerals it once contained with celtic sea salt ……. pure, mineral rich and very good for you …… sodium works in conjunction with potassium in the human body to regulate water levels and normalise heart rhythms ………. potassium works inside the cells, sodium works outside them … you need it …. you don’t need the processed table salt variety.

Ditch eating prepackaged foods as much as possible and prepare fresh fruit and vegies and some lean meats and fishes as often as possible …….. packaged foods contain a ghastly amount of processed salt and highly refined man made nutritionally void white sugar.
Find ways to effectively manage your stress levels such as exercise, yoga, meditation, singing, dancing, laughing … hey, anything that makes you feel good.
make sure you get enough sleep daily and try not to do everything yourself …… get family members to share the load.
eat freshly crushed garlic too …….. garlic is good for boosting immunity, is an antispasmotic, lowers cholesterol and blood pressure and also works as an anti inflammatory ………. wonderfull stuff, particularly if you can tolerate it crushed and raw ……. raw garlic works best as a powerfull antibiotic that fights bacteria, parasites and viruses … garlic is also good for heart disease (two or three cloves a day lessen the chance of heart attacks) and stroke and it contains many preventive, anticancer compounds and antioxidants (raw, cooked, or aged at best). Garlic is also good for colds (decongestant and expectorant) and works as an antidiarrheal…… it helps relieve gas, is estrogenic and works as an antidepressant too ….. fabulous stuff hey……… crush it and mix it through in small amounts to start with (or it may upset your digestion) through your vegies, meat and salads.
peace baby
