What should I do about my blood pressure? -

I just tested it for free at Fred Meyer and I rate in the first stage of hypertension with a heart rate of 86. What should and shouldn t I eat?

There are foods that reduce blood pressure. I have posted a link. Hope it helps.

Walk everyday and stay away from all processed foods, especially those high in sodium. Don t drink soda, and reduce caffeine intake.

Oatmeal keeps your blood pressure down.

salt and butter are the worst href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow"> href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">href="rel="nofollow">http://www.orato.com/lifestyles/2007/09/...

it s not about what to eat or not to eat, it s about the portions and the variety of food in your diet, avoid fatty foods like cheese, fried foods, fatty meats. But most importantly remember to start a exercise regimen, now, this does not mean you have to get ready to run a marathon but just to go for a walk maybe 3 to 4 times a week, maybe take the stairs at work intead of the elevator and try to find far parking that way you can walk more. Ask your doctor if starting a b/p med is needed. Godd luck!

Talk to a doctor........not us here you could get stupid advice.!!
