5 Steps You Can Take Today To Lower Blood Pressure Naturally http://301url.com/TheSilentKiller
High
blood pressure, or hypertension, is not something to be taken lightly. It is a
serious disease, the cause of which is unknown. One fact health care professionals
do know is that left untreated, high blood pressure over time can lead to serious
heart disease and other vascular troubles, even death.
Blood pressure medications
come in a wide range of formulas and dosages; each aimed at reducing the pressure
going through the blood vessels either as the heart pumps blood or relaxes.
Some medications strengthen the blood vessels while others thin the blood in
an effort to reduce the strain. Trial and error is usually a doctor's only course
of action when determining which combination of drugs and treatments will benefit
a specific patient. The problem with this approach is the dangerous side effects,
which often accompany these medications.
There is however some good news
about hypertension! There are steps you can take today that will begin to lower
your blood pressure almost immediately. Overtime, the result is a sustained healthy
blood pressure reading that supports your blood vessels and heart for years to
come.
Start with these 5 easy lifestyle changes. Always consult with your
doctor before trying anything new with your health regime, and never go off of
any medication without the advice of your doctor. Here is a list that any doctor
can approve of:
1. Drink Water. Yes, water is a way to cleanse and refresh
every part of the body, even your blood vessels. Drink 8-10 glasses each day to
flush out excess salt and toxins that make their way into the blood stream. You
can use water to replace some drinks containing caffeine that temporarily raise
blood pressure.
2. Stop Smoking. If you are a long time smoker, you know
how it affects your breathing. What you may not realize is its impact on your
blood pressure. If you can't quit completely, then cut down. Even a 50% reduction
in the number of cigarettes smoked each week can help.
3. Exercise. A cardiovascular
workout strengthens the heart. This is important because high blood pressure over
time puts added strain on the heart. Just 20 minutes, 3 times per week of a sustained
increase in heart rate will aid in lowering blood pressure.
4. Eat Right.
If you are eating better and exercising, a nice by-product will be weight loss.
By reducing your weight by 10%, you can significantly lower blood pressure. A
diet that includes the freshest fruits and vegetables will support healthy blood
pressure. Reduce or eliminate salt intake, and especially beware of "hidden" sodium
found abundantly in pre-packaged convenience foods.
5. Relax. Many people
have a temporary raise in blood pressure when they are under stress. If you have
high blood pressure because you are over weight or have a family history of hypertension,
then stress raises it that much more. Try taking a walk, meditating or listening
to relaxing music to take the edge off a stressful day. Make time for decompressing
each and every day.
