   You do need to consult with a doctor so they can continue to monitor your blood pressure and possibly find what’s causing it to be high. That said, a high protein diet is good to help lower blood pressure. When I was pregnant, I was borderline hypertensive and didn’t want to take drugs that might have harmed my baby, so my Midwife recommended a high protein diet (around 90mg of protein/day) I ate a lot of boneless/skinless chicken breasts, eggs(best source of protein) and fish. The omega3 fatty acids in the fish are also very beneficial. I was able to bring down my blood pressure just by that change alone. As soon as I started eating normally again with more carbs than protein, my blood pressure started rising again. I had to stay on the diet until I had my son.

   You should see your doctor. Pressure ‘normal range’ can vary per individual, however it is not something to play around with. Only a licensed physician can prescribe what will work for you.

   However, home treatments that promote an overall good health is proper exercise and diet.

   Fish Oil and Baby Aspirin are both blood thinners and will lower your blood pressure.
