Three tips to lower your blood pressure naturally...
1) Reduce sodium intake - most people eat a lot of fast and processed food which contains a lot of sodium, then compound that with adding salt to food prepared at home. Eating more whole, less processed food and not adding as much salt to food you prepare will allow you to ingest less sodium.
2) Lose weight - Studies have been shown to prove that losing weight for most people will do more for your blood pressure than reducing sodium intake alone. So by virtue of that, these should be done together. In fact, if you eat a lot of fast, restaurant and processed food and you begin eating more less processed and whole foods, that will likely help weight loss.
3) Regular exercise/activity - If you are an inactive person, starting some regular activity (even just walking) will be more that what you have been doing so, YES, it will make a difference. It is also good for cardiovascular health.
