What can help with hypertension treatment? -

There are many things that you can do to improve high blood pressure that don t involve medicine. Diet and exercise are always first on the list but there are some rather innovative products on the market that can help some people. I ve been diagnosed with hypertension for about 10 years and am not the best at keeping to a good exercise regimen. I have had good luck with a product called resperate. Its a little portable CD-player sized device that helps you lower your breathing rate to less than 10 breaths a minute for about 15 minutes. It is not known why exactly this helps to lower blood pressure but it does work. Its been through several successful clinical trials and there are lots of success stories out there. I ve included a link if you want some more info. Good Luck!

depending on how hypertensive we are talkin- then medicine is the best bet high blood pressure can cause strokes and damage the blood vessels- be careful with it!

Diet cutting out salt also watching red meat intake and also exercise and relaxing.

I m assuming the question is asking about ways aside from traditional antihypertensive medications prescribed by a doctor, such as lisinopril, HCTZ, and metoprolol, to control blood pressure. Life style changes play an important role in controlling your blood pressure. Most doctors will advise this first prior to prescribing medications, unless your blood pressure is moderate-severely elevated or you have other risk factors. And when you are on medications, you should continue w/ the lifestyle changes. This consists of watching your diet (ie, limit caffeine and salt intake) and exercising regularly. Also, learn how to deal w/ stress.. learn meditation, relaxation techniques to help reduce overall blood pressure. You may be able to minimize the amount of prescription medications you need to take for hypertension by incorporating lifestyle changes. Add-on: You may also want to consider investing in a blood pressure machine to help monitor your blood pressure. It will give you encouragement to see the progress you ve made or to contact your doctor (to adjust medications) if your blood pressure continues to be elevated.

Oranges produce brain chemicals seratonina nd melatonin. As they pass through your system they balance salt intake and act as a sponge to absorb excess water. eat at least three a day, morning noon and night. Walking is needed. Pleasant thoughts always. Smile more and remember Jesus said..quot;Salt is good...quot;

A Balanced diet, exercise, decrease stress, drink less alcohol, don t smoke, and take medications as prescribed.
