Natural Remedies For High Blood Pressure
It is proven that changes in your diet can prevent high blood pressure, and this has happened with many
patients.
Top 12 Natural Remedies For High Blood Pressure:
- Go green make the switch to a plant based diet, eat fresh vegetables instead of canned vegetables. Dairy
products tend to be high in sodium so slowly reduce your intake and eventually cut out dairy. Try almond milk
or rice milk both are excellent.
- Stay away from greasy foods, eliminate unsaturated fats, kill the margerine/butter, no meats or meat based
products cutting these from your diet will lower your blood pressure.
- Walk 20-30 minutes a day, exercise is key to a lower blood pressure, this will also reduce your stress
levels.
- Stay away from alcohol and caffeine
- If you really want to get on the fast track to a lower blood pressure, stop using salt or "table salt" soy
sauce contains killer sodium levels reaching 1000mg! from just a small packet you get when you order take
out.
- Cut down on the sugar in your diet, cookies, cake, donuts etc. Here is an insider tip.. soft drinks are
LOADED with sugar and are actually the worst drinks in the market place. Start blending and juicing all natural
fruits, smoothies and veggies.
- Stay away from tobacco and smoking because they eventually destroy your lungs and arteries.
- Do not eat too late your body needs a break and time to refuel and rebuild. If you have finished your
dinner by 6pm no later than 8pm this is good, the earlier the better. And if you must eat late go with
fruit.
- Strive to eat more healthy balanced meals, listen to
your body and try to eat more small meals through out the day so you are not starving by dinner and gouging
yourself with food and overeating.
- Try to stay away from over the counter drugs if possible, If you are practicing all the above you will find
that you won't get sick as often with the flu, allergies etc.
- Avoid various supplements that contain these particular amino acids "tyrosine" and "phenylalanine" my rule
of thumb with ingredients tends to be if I can't pronounce it, it can't be that great or it's not all natural.
The more ingredients you find on packaging the less natural the product tends to be. If you can try food
shopping at Trader Joes or Whole Foods or any organic farmers market in your area.
- Drink more water, realistically 8-10 glasses daily.
