Hypertension is a medical term used to describe high blood pressure. Blood pressure is a measure of the force against the walls of your arteries, as the heart pumps blood through the body.
Blood pressure readings are given as two numbers, 120 over 80 (written as 120/80).
The top number is your systolic pressure. It is considered high if it is more than 140 years old.
The bottom number is your diastolic pressure. It is considered high if it is over 90 years old.
One or both of these numbers may be too high. There are many reasons why your blood pressure can be high, sometimes it is related to heredity, ethnicity, diet, excess salt, obesity, stress, or may be perceived by another disease, such as kidney failure or endocrine disorders. Even worse, you are more likely to get high blood pressure when you get older, because your blood vessels tighten with age, it is not surprising that it seems that it gets into the pot when we get older.
Also think about taking a reading, getting a high reading one day, and normal readings on other days may be caused by other factors, for example, one day I didn't drink enough water during exercise, so I was very dehydrated - my blood pressure went out on 148/92 - when it was taken again later, after I got the water and left it, I read 120/80, so this requires 148/92 or so to have high blood pressure.
The good news is that high blood pressure / hypertension can be controlled through diet and exercise.
Since I tend to have high blood pressure (family history), I did a lot of research on the Internet and in the library, where I found 5 common herbs that you can use to control your blood pressure. The best part is that these items can be found at your local grocery store, and you don’t have to spend a small fortune at any health food store or even at GNC.
1. Garlic - British and Australian researchers conducted studies in which they concluded that garlic significantly lowers blood pressure. One bag of precaution is an anticoagulant and may cause bruising or slow blood clotting.
2. Celery is especially surprising to me - celery is probably used to relieve gout, insomnia, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. The Chinese use celery as a treatment for high blood pressure, although, of course, we use pills. Precautions Celery has a very high salt content, which is known to increase blood pressure in some people, and long-term use of celery can deplete your potassium levels.
3. Pomegranates - like most fruits, are filled with powerful antioxidants - Israeli researchers found those subjects who drank at least 3 ounces of juice daily, lowered their blood pressure by 21%. Studies have shown that the antioxidant capacity of pomegranate juice is greater than that found in red wines or teas, and has been shown to be effective in treating heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, and cancer. Preliminary studies show that the juice is effective for the prevention of inflammatory diseases and bacterial infections, as well as enhances immunity. Expecting a baby, this juice helps babies' brain to develop normally and protects their brain from prenatal traumatic brain injury. There are no precautions, but since this is a kind of sour analysis of your sugar content, you do not want to destroy the benefits of drinking something that is overloaded with sugar.
4. Cocoa - now it's just awesome if you ever needed an excuse to pamper yourself here, but it must be dark chocolate. The researchers found that dark chocolate was higher in antioxidants than tea or red wine, began to study whether dark chocolate helps with heart disease, stroke and high blood pressure. German researchers found that 3 ounces of chocolate consumed daily was as effective as the daily dose of your blood pressure pills. Things to watch out for chocolate do not contain caffeine as much as coffee, but it can still spoil in a dream, and, of course, some people may be allergic.
5. Ginger - The New England Journal of Medicine published a study linking the use of ginger with a decrease in heart disease and stroke, because it helps lower blood pressure and speeds up clots. In a personal note, I used ginger to help with nausea, it is very effective for this purpose.
As in any case, even herbal remedies are always checked with your doctor before using natural remedies and using common sense, and even using natural ingredients can be bad for you. However, adding natural products and ingredients can lead to a healthy diet, which is always good for you in the long run.
