How to lower your blood pressure without medication, according to a cardiologist:
If you have high blood pressure , the most important thing you can do is eliminate the factors in your lifestyle that are driving your BP northward. Eliminate those and you might avoid the need for medications, or at least reduce the amounts required to control your readings.
Put all these together and you can realize anywhere from a 20 to 55 mmHg drop on your own. That’s the same kind of result you’d get from being on a bunch of medications! Eating right should be a cornerstone of your efforts, since diet affects so many of the other factors that impact your blood pressure readings. And because sodium is so hard to avoid, you’ll need to be especially diligent in this area. One easy way to reduce sodium intake: Eat an apple or other piece of fruit or some raw vegetablesyou dig into anything else you might have for lunch or dinner. You might then just have a few fewer bites of your pizza or higher sodium entrée.
And even if your blood pressure readings are only “borderline” or “mildly abnormal” right now, it’s still very important to make these lifestyle changes. Taking steps to lower your readings now can keep your blood pressure problem from progressing into something more dangerous.
