no health ins. Is there natural ways to help blood pressure?

Answer 1

• Habitual overeating, even of good food, will lead to hypertension. A person does not tend to overeat on healthfully prepared natural foods.

• Excessive protein food, sweats, rich pastry, and desserts must be omitted; but the reduction of all foods is especially important.

• Do not use salt; this is essential for lowering blood pressure. Read the labels: Many foods contain sodium. Look for "salt," "sodium," "soda," or "Na" on the label. Also avoid MSG (monosodium glutamate), baking soda, saccharin, soy sauce, diet soft drinks, preservatives, meat tenderizers, and softened water.

• Only drink distilled water.

• Eliminate all dairy products, for they are high in sodium.

• Do not use processed meats or canned vegetables.

• Stress, fear, anger, and pain increases blood pressure. Adequate daily outdoor exercise helps reduce the effects of stress.

• Eat a high-fiber diet. Include oat bran; it appears to be the very best type for the purposes you have in mind.

• For oil, take 2 tbsp. flaxseed oil daily.

• Use no animal fat of any kind; it is best to avoid meat, since there is so much of it in meat.

• Do not eat chocolate, alcohol, avocados, aged cheeses, and yogurt.

• Include supplemental calcium in your diet.

• Avoid more than 400 units of vitamin D daily.

• Drink fresh vegetable juices.

• Garlic definitely lowers blood pressure. Actually, it tends to normalize it. In those with low blood pressure, it raises it. Fresh, raw garlic is the best.

• Obtain sufficient rest at night; do not eat later than several hours before bedtime.

• Do a pulse test in order to ascertain offending foods you are allergic to (see "Pulse Test").

• If you are pregnant, check your blood pressure regularly.

• Do not take antihistamines.

• Do not take supplements containing the amino acids tyrosine or phenylalanine.

• Keep your weight down! Loss of weight lowers blood pressure. If you are overweight and have high blood pressure, you would do well fasting one or two days a week.

• When the situation is critical, special care must be given to produce successful recovery:

• Adequate rest, both physical and mental, is needed, though mild exercise is beneficial to those with moderate hypertension. Even the visits of friends and relatives may have to be restricted or prohibited for a time.

• Gradually start mild exercise. Walk out-of-doors and gradually (slowly!) build up the amount of time spent in outdoor walking.

• All blood pressure medications tend to have negative effects. Moderate exercise, rest, sleep, and proper diet will provide better help.

• No vigorous or tonic hydrotherapy, or even massage, should be used. The neutral bath and complete bed rest is needed.

• One recommended program is fruit and rice, alone, for 1-2 weeks.

Answer 7

Like someone else mentioned, visit a free clinic. You need to be seen by a doctor. There are pharmacies, Target and Walmart among them, that have some generic prescription medications available for only $4. Blood pressure medications are among those offered. Here is a list of Walmart's $4 heart and blood pressure medications: http://www.walmart.com/cservice/contextual_help_popup.gsp?modId=553162
Tell the doctor you want a blood pressure medication from this list.

As for trying to lower it on your own, exercise 5 days per week for 1 hour and eat low salt food (try to maintain daily sodium consumption to under 2000 grams per day). Losing weight, if you are overweight, can also help to lower your blood pressure. I strongly advise however that you visit a doctor before starting any exercise program.

Reduce your salt intake and get plenty of exercise.

Answer 11

You might want to look around for free clincs/sliding scale clincs or heatlh studies for high blood pressure. I wouldn't be betting on a natural remedy without first getting it under control under a doctors care. Why don't you have health insurance?
