There are numerous ways because I have high blood pressure.
Exercise regularly, Eat a healthy Diet, Reduce Sodium in your diet, Limit alcohol consumption, Lose those extra pounds and watch your waistline...
If they fail to bring down the blood pressure, the first step is usually a prescription for one of five types of medication: a diuretic, a beta blocker, an ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) inhibitor, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, or a calcium channel blocker. If these drugs, either alone or in combination, fail to bring blood pressure under control, other classes of drugs may be prescribed and see your Dr.

Normal is 120/70 so your not too awful bad. Try donating some blood, also check diet,,control sodium intake and drink more H20.

Nothing has lowered my BP better than Hawthorn berry extract. I take about 1.5-2g 3x daily. I suggest ordereing in bulk herb from, much cheaper.

A week ago my blood pressure was 170 over 112. My doc prescribed 20 mg of Lisinopril once a day.

Thats not even close to being high.

I have also heard good info about Hawthorn berry extract

Yah I agree thats not bad at all. Pretty normal esp if you were walking before you sat down to get it tested. You really need to be sitting still for a good 5-10min relaxed to know your true BP

false readings

if you have any kind of size to your arms and they use a regular cuff instead of a larger one your readings are off.

Would your readings usually read higher or could it be lower with a regular cuff if you have big arms.

 

[Tom]

higher

my bp is always higher on a regular cuff but reads normal on a larger cuff. read as 155/92 on regular and 130/70 on the larger cuff measured minutes apart.

Stay lean

From my experience staying as lean as possible while on a cycle helps tremendously. Last cycle I weighed about 252 and bp was 145-150 over 85
Now, I am back on, keep weight around 240, just as strong and bp is about 10 points lower, no other change. Just 1-2 inches off waistline is all it took

High BP

Big Chef gave you the best possible answer. However, some docs even cardiologists dont stay current with meds and treatment. Also, most docs treat very unhealthy people who dont exercise or eat well. That being said, and many treatment options available... try to do what you may know to be right such as what BC recommended. Also, if you"ve never had a a cardio stress test with thallium it wouldn't hurt. This of course with regular blood work as well. They wont do a comprehensive hormonal panel unless you give them reason to suspect you've been tinkering around with hormones. Perhaps a TSH for thyroid, and t4 at most. Recently my (family practice) doc took me off the meds my cardiologist prescribed for a beta blocker that has made a huge difference. The name of the drug is Biostolic. It has made a dramatic difference in both my heart rate and bp. But again, everyone is different. Get a thorough physical first and let a professional diagnose you and follow up. Best of luck.

bottom number of the pressure is 70 - 80..then you should be ok if you have no underlying health issues...my bp rises while on, just a little below where you are at...130 or so over 80, water retention is the main culprit for me...when i let bloat get too crazy my bp could go to 140 over 90, so check ways to reduce bloat..big chef hit most on the head, less sodium..overall cleaner diet, cardio etc etc, try the hawthorn berry too...i never tried but also heard good things

sweet thats great news

vit d3, hawthorn berry extract, coq10. I was chronically in the upper 140's on systolic, like 145/75 and after 3 months of this combo, I remeasured and it was 111/71 with a resting HR of 70bpm.

You can look into Arjuna as well. C-12 Peptide too ...

Good luck.

Lisinopril Hydrochlorothiazide (ACE inhibitor and diuretic in one pill) at 12.5mg ED (doctor prescribed) brought me down from 160/80 to 130/70 in about 3 weeks.

I've had high blood pressure in the past and I just start doing more cardio and it comes down. Try an hour a day for a while.

I found that getting divorced was the biggest factor in reducing my blood pressure.
