Here are a few ways to help lower blood pressure!
Hawthorne Berry
Hawthorne berry is a gentle substance often taken as an extract alone or within an herbal formula over time that is beneficial for cardiovascular function, calming the spirit and lowering blood pressure.
Increasing potassium and lowering sodium in the diet
Most people know it is important to lower sodium but it is also about improving the ratio of potassium to sodium in the diet. Most fresh fruits and vegetables tend to have higher potassium than sodium.
Exercise
Regular exercise helps to reduce stress and inflammation, both of which can be important to reduce blood pressure. Exercise also improves circulation. It is a therapeutic way to improve cardiovascular health and preserve it long-term.
Consistently good sleep
Lack of sleep can promote inflammation, irregular blood sugar, high blood pressure, and is a source of stress on the body. Sleep is very important for healing and repair. Make sure to get enough rest every night.
Watermelon
If you have kidney disease, do not over-consume watermelon. It is a diuretic and may make a compromised kidney work harder. The way I help individuals with kidney disease lower their blood pressure is different from how I work with a client who does not, because I seek to preserve kidney function.
Organic Celery Juice
Our food typically contains pesticides. If you are going to consume large amounts of celery in the form of celery juice, consider buying it organic to reduce your exposure to pesticides.
