My goal in my life and in my career is to help people cure themselves with natural methods. By providing your body with the ingredients needed to help itself back to health, you are helping yourself regain health without modern medication. Not all medications are bad, however most carry a list of side effects that are sometimes worse than the disease it treats.
Doctors are quick to prescribe blood pressure medicine and it is generally convenient to take, but it can leave a person with new and usually surprising problems. Side effects include headaches, dizziness, nausea, joint pain, fatigue and sexual dysfunction – and these are just a few of a large list. Some of the more serious side effects even include stroke and heart attack (the very problems the drugs are designed to prevent). So one should be careful enough to prevent heart attack while taking medications
While I advise against taking such medications, please be sure to consult with a doctor if you’re currently taking blood pressure medicine and choose to discontinue it, even if you are experiencing any of the above side effects. Even if you choose to pursue natural treatments, please discuss any problems that you’re having with the medications first.
The simplest way to control and cure high blood pressure it to restructure your diet plan. By choosing healthier foods to eat, you can be in control of your blood pressure, not the other way around. Below I have listed several popular food options for those of you considering this method:
As a natural diuretic, celery tops the list of good things to eat for blood pressure. It is also said to have a negative caloric effect, which means that it takes more calories to digest than it even contains. Eat it fresh or juice it with carrots for an extra daily health punch.
Another great food item to add to your diet is papaya. Some naturopaths recommend eating papaya daily on an empty stomach for a month and see how much it lowers your blood pressure. Eat it alone and avoid eating anything else for at least two hours afterward.
Garlic may well be the fastest acting natural blood pressure reducing food. I’ve actually witnessed it lowering a person’s blood pressure minutes after they ate it. Eat garlic in its natural clove form or use it to cook with in your meals; whichever way you prefer, garlic can sure pack a punch!
Don’t like papaya or garlic? Try instead to reduce the amount of fat, sugar, and red meat you eat every day. This will not only help lower your blood pressure, but can also help to lower your cholesterol.
For a total meal plan overhaul, try the DASH eating plan. It provides a specific diet plan and serving recommendations to guide you to making the right food choices. This method helps those suffering from high blood pressure as well as being beneficial to people who had pre-hypertension by lowering their blood pressure.
DASH has a well-rounded eating plan, consisting of foods from these categories: whole grains, raw vegetables, fruits and non-fat or low fat dairy products. Fats and oils are allowed but in limited quantities.
Although changing the way you eat is an important part of managing high blood pressure, you can also help your body heal itself by reducing stress in your daily life. Stress can be a major contributor to high blood pressure. By lowering your stress levels, you can also in turn lowers your high blood pressure.
I address stress in my Hypertension No More program, where I focus on increasing your body’s intake of oxygen to reduce or eliminate stress. By reducing stress, you can maintain or even lower your blood pressure. To let this program work at its best, combine the stress-free methods with a healthy diet and exercise to help your body lower its blood pressure naturally and effectively.
