Quite awhile ago I read in one of my nursing journals that taking 1500 mg. per day of calcium for 6 weeks would help lower blood pressure. When I had a home-care nursing job and didn't move around a lot, my B/P got higher, so I tried the Calcium. It really worked for me. (I'm wary of prescription B/P meds-lots of side effects. Research before taking.) It's best if you can find highly absorbable calcium.

Besides blood pressure medicine, eat right get plenty of good exercise, try not to get upset over small stuff and learn to let out feelings more by talking to a good friend. Also 2tbls. of white vinegar will lower it most every time.

Here is a link to tips on how to eat and other things you can do to lower it. It is from Dr Andrew Weil, who is probably my favorite natural health medicine Dr- usually what he says makes a lot of sense to me. Anyway, I hope this helps.
