How to Lower Blood Pressure Without Medication - Here is How to Lower Blood Pressure Naturally! High blood pressure is extremely dangerous for the body, not only because it causes the heart to work harder, but also because it causes atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and increases the chances of coronary heart disease and strokes. But, when is blood pressure considered high? If it's above 140/90 it can have a negative effect on your health. If the values are between 120/80 mmHg and 139/89 mmHg then the patient suffers from "pre-hypertension", which means that hypertension may appear in the future if the appropriate action is not taken. Blood pressure is divided into systolic (the force that blood exerts on the artery walls during the contraction of the heart) and the diastolic (the force exerted by the blood on the walls of the arteries, when the heart expands). For example, when the values are 140/90, 140 is the systolic and 90 is the diastolic. Sometimes only one of the two is high. In this situation, someone may suffer with a condition called ISH (Isolated Systolic Hypertension), which is quite common especially in older people. Adopting a healthy lifestyle and following a few simple tips can help you fight this condition: Follow a diet with fruits, vegetables, cereals, white meat and fish and avoid fat, red meat and sweets. It's very important to reduce or eliminate sodium from your diet. You may find it easier to change your diet gradually. Use half the amount of butter and margarine than usual. Add a fruit to your meals. Gradually increase the consumption of dairy products to 3 servings per day (you can drink milk with your meal instead of soda or alcohol). Also according to a plethora of scientific evidence, foods like oatmeal, bran and brown rice can have significant benefits, because they lower the risk of coronary disease and stroke. Try to replace refined grains with whole grains.
