When the heart pumps blood into the arteries, the blood flows with a force pushing against the walls of the arteries. Blood pressure is the product of the flow of blood times the resistance in the blood vessels. High blood pressure is also called hypertension.
What makes high blood pressure important is that initially it may cause no symptoms but can still cause serious long-term complications.
Hypertension is one of the main risk factors for heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure. In the United States, about 30% of adults have high blood pressure. Many people are not aware of the problem. Of those who are, less than one-third receive adequate treatment to control their blood pressure.
Believe it or not, there are natural high blood pressure cures that work - and work quickly. If you have been taking prescription medications to treat hypertension, you will want to read this. Too many people take these drugs, and they can be detrimental to your health.
The first way that you can control high low pressure is through the use of prescription medications. There are several available and they have proven to be effective. However, there are things you can do on your own to lower your blood pressure without having to rely on expensive and powerful medications.
The interesting point is that most people are not even aware that they have high blood pressure, unless they measure it. Two numbers measure the blood pressure of a person - where the number on top is the measure of systolic pressure that is the highest count reached every time the heart beats. The lower number is the measure of the diastolic pressure which is the lowest point reached when the heart relaxes in between two beats.
Herbs such as cayenne, terminalia arjuna (an Indian coronary vaso-dilative herb), commiphora mukul, withania somnifera, ginger, saffron (having a chemical called crocetin, which help to reduce blood pressure), mistletoe, kudzu (Pueraria lobata), valerian (Valeriana officinalis), hawthorn berries and tops, rauwolfia, horse chestnut and ginkgo biloba also serves to be very useful and effective natural health remedies for high blood pressure.
Hawthorn (also known as thorn-apple) is one of the most commonly used herbs for high blood pressure and cardiovascular problems and is a natural cure for these conditions. Some of the other herbs often used are cayenne pepper, coenzyme Q10, gotu kola and borage.
Apple cider vinegar has been known to be an effective natural remedy for hypertension. Because this type of vinegar (unpasteurized) is loaded with minerals that you need to normalize your pressure, a few tablespoons make a great remedy. You should take about 3 tablespoons a day. Dilute it with water if the taste is bothering you.
