If you're suffering from high blood pressure right now, you may not know that there are certain types of herbs that can help you lower your blood pressure in no time.
They are: 1.
Garlic Studies show that garlic can reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol, improve immune function and help reverse insulin resistance.
Garlic also has the ability to stimulate the production of the amino acid glutathione, a powerful antioxidant and detoxifier.
In a 1990 there was a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind conducted in West Germany.
Patients with hypertension were divided into two groups and given either a garlic powder preparation or a placebo.
After twelve weeks, patients in the garlic group reduced their mean diastolic pressure from an average of 102 to 89 mm Hg, while the placebo group showed no major changes in blood pressure.
Cholesterol and triglyceride levels were also reduced in the garlic group.
If you have hypertension, I would recommend you to get as much garlic in your diet as you can.
You will find garlic in several forms- fresh cloves, juice, oil, dehydrated granules, powder, and puree.
However, you must avoid garlic salt form because salt will increase your hypertension.
The fresh garlic is best- one or two cloves per day.
If you find the taste of fresh garlic unappealing, you can use garlic supplements.
Look for a product that mention its equivalent of fresh garlic, and take an amount comparable to one to two cloves of garlic per day.
2.
Hawthorn Hawthorn leaves, berries, and blossoms contain active compounds which can increase blood supply to the heart, improve metabolic process to the heart and reduce blood pressure.
How does hawthorn work? It naturally dilates blood vessels, increasing the diameter of the "pipes" to lower pressure.
If you have hypertension, it is recommended to take 360 mg.
of hawthorn extract per day.
However, it might take up to six weeks to see the results- so be patient when you try this natural therapy against hypertension.
