Features
- Engage in regular physical exercise. Exercising for at least 30 minutes a day drops systolic blood pressure by as much as five points. Plus, it contributes to an overall healthier lifestyle
- Consume more potassium. Potassium helps to stop salt from wreaking havoc in our bodies. Some examples of food high in potassium include bananas, potatoes with their skin on and oranges
- Limit the amount of salt you consume. Most people who do have high blood pressure consume excessive amounts of salt. Salt intake should be reduced dramatically and they should stay away from processed foods
- Stop smoking. When you smoke a cigarette, your blood pressure rises immediately. By leaving the cigarettes (and not consuming any alcohol), blood pressure will no longer experience spikes
- Lose weight. Being overweight is one of the main causes of high blood pressure. Not just that, people who are overweight often have low self-esteem, which causes stress. By maintaining a healthy weight, people can start to feel better about them again. Besides this, it makes it easier to enjoy a healthy lifestyle that includes exercise
- Lower alcohol consumption. Alcohol negatively affects the body overall and blood pressure in particular. Women’s should drink ones in a day, two for men’s.
- Deal better with stress. According to Restore My Blood Sugar, dealing with stress in a healthy manner is vital to lower blood pressure. Consider breathing exercises and yoga for instance. There are various stress management techniques and people should try to work out which one works best for them.
- Lower caffeine intake. Consuming too much caffeine can lead to high blood pressure. It is important to find out whether or not caffeine affects you, which can be known by measuring your blood pressure before and after consuming a caffeinated drink. Switch to decaf if you find your blood pressure spikes, which could mean you are sensitive to caffeine.
