Lower BP in a Month

Blood pressure can be lowered within a month through lifestyle changes, including handgrip and other isometric exercises, small amounts of dark chocolate, fermented foods, reducing salt by reading food labels, eating sources of potassium and magnesium, drinking hibiscus tea, consuming flaxseeds, and using relaxation techniques. The cited studies suggest that two cups of hibiscus tea a day may lower systolic blood pressure by about 5 to 7 millimeters of mercury, while eating gut-friendly foods has been linked to a 13 percent lower risk of high blood pressure. Blood pressure below 140/90 millimeters of mercury is considered ideal, and the risk of death from heart attacks and strokes doubles with every 20-millimeter rise in systolic pressure or 10-millimeter rise in diastolic pressure.
