Natural Remedy for High Blood Pressure
Natural Treatment of High Blood Pressure
Natural treatments and natural cures for high blood pressure treatment generate a lot of interest and attention nowadays. But if you suffer from blood pressure, should you be experimenting with this type of treatment?
There’s no right or wrong answer to that question but here are some thoughts to ponder if you are considering using a natural remedy for high blood pressure:
- Invest in a Blood Pressure Monitor before you start the natural blood pressure treatment. It’s crucial to know how things are going and the only way to achieve this is to check your blood pressure regularly.
- Let your doctor know that you intend trying a new form of treatment. This is particularly important if you are going to try a natural blood pressure cure along with (or instead of) your normal medication.
- Please don’t stop your normal medications quickly. This could trigger a sudden rise in blood pressure with potentially awful consequences.
- Beware of unexpected side effects from natural blood pressure treatments - and be aware that any other medication you are taking could interact adversely. This is specially true with medication like warfarin or coumarin.
So what can you do to lower blood pressure naturally?
Here are some suggestions for “natural blood pressure remedies.”
- Weight Loss - each pound or kilo you lose will lower your blood pressure reading significantly
- Exercise more - there’s great evidence now that regular exercise lowers blood pressure - even if you don’t lose weight with it
- Restrict salt from your diet
- Lower the fat content of your diet
- Increase diet fibre
- Give some thought to biofeedback machines like Resperate - a device that teaches you to control blood pressure by relaxation and other techniques. Very good results in studies
When it comes to herbal or food supplement therapies there are lots to choose from. A lot of reports recently have focussed on Lycopene from tomatoes as a key addition to diet or as a supplement. Lycomato is the name of the supplement in question.
