Answer 1

are you overweight? Losing weight will help. Make sure you stay hydrated so your heart doesn't have to work extra hard. You can also lower your salt intake and commit to a real exercise regimen, like jogging.

Answer 2

1. See a doctor. That's the first thing she needs to do to eliminate other problems that could cause or go along with high blood pressure. 2. Lose some weight. Eating well is also key - however, she needs to check with the doctor to make sure she's on the right path. 3. Exercise. 4. Practice meditation 5. Pick potassium-rich produce 6. Read food labels for sodium 7. Take a coenzyme Q10 supplement 8. Switch to decaf 9. Drink tea However, if she's a big snorer especially, she needs to see a doctor. Loud, incessant snores are one of the main symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). University of Alabama researchers found that many sleep apnea sufferers also had high levels of aldosterone, a hormone that can boost blood pressure. In fact, it's estimated that half of all people with sleep apnea have high blood pressure.

3 years ago, I was diagnosed - hypertension with a reading of 160/100. I used to feel dizzy a lot, my legs had awful cramps, and levels were very low in my potassium, causing my fingers and toes to always cramp together. One day I started to feel really faint while I was driving with my daughter in the back seat and I passed out, hitting 3 cars and ending up in a ditch. That moment,I knew I had to do something because my meds weren't working. I heard about this diet from a friend and thought I'd give it a shot. The results have been remarkable. In just 21 days, I honestly can't remember feeling this good, my blood pressure went from 175/110 to 125/70.

Answer 4

There are things that you can do to help stabilize your blood pressure but it is difficult. You can be very strict with your diet, stay away from high sodium products, keep your cholesterol down,stay away from alcohol and exercise moderately. If you are into meditation, yoga or breathing exercises, they can be of significant help. The number 1 piece of advice that Dr.s love to give in fighting high blood pressure is to try and avoid stress. That is probably the hardest of all. If you want to go the holistic route, purchase a book that will inform you of "natural or organic" herbs and supplements. Natural or organic foods, herbs, and or supplements can do more harm and be dangerous if not taken or used properly. If you have the resources, go to a nutritionist for an evaluation and personal regiment.

The best way is to take high blood pressure pills, I asked the same thing to my doctor, and she said high blood pressure isn't always due to unhealthy eating, or not exercising...its mostly due to genetics. So she said the best way to lower you blood pressure is to take medication, eat healthy, and exercising daily.
