Do you have High Blood Pressure?



Do you can have High Blood Pressure without knowing it. After time this condition can damage your heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and other parts of your body.

By increasing the amount of potassium, calcium, and magnesium in your diet will give your body the proper nutrients to balance your blood pressure. Most vegetables and fruits in the garden are rich in potassium. Broccoli and dark leafy greens are full of magnesium and calcium. Researchers have found that celery and celery seeds contains a substance that lowers blood pressure; the Chinese have used celery for this purpose for centuries. I will go more in depth about Celery seed extract...

Garlic helps lower blood pressure by keeping the arteries clear of cholesterol and potential plaque buildup. It also decreases blood clotting and widens the arteries. Hawthorn berries and ginkgo biloba are reputed to dilate arteries, too, making the heart's job of pushing blood through them a little easier.

Manage stress. Reduce stress as much as possible! The main trigger of High Blood Pressure is STRESS! That's right folks...You can take all the remedies you want but if you stress level is high...Well so is you blood pressure.

Passion flower, Valerian, and lemon balm have sedative properties, so if your blood pressure condition is thought to be connected to stress and anxiety, tranquilizing herbs such as these can lend a hand without side effects. Valerian also relaxes the smooth muscles that line the artery walls, preventing them from constricting.

 

Celery seeds can act as a diuretic, helping eliminate toxins from the body, as well as preventing cell damage that could lead to cancer and other diseases. The seeds are very rich in essential fatty acids and they are believed to be beneficial in brain development and in the prevention of heart disease and stroke. People with high blood pressure and high levels of bad cholesterol can benefit from consuming celery seeds because these contain potassium and magnesium. Celery seeds have been used as an ingredient in pain-relief pills. It helps to alleviate pain and inflammation caused by conditions such as arthritis, rheumatism and gout. 

Like other diuretics, celery seeds stimulate kidney function and activity, helping the body flush out toxins and uric acid that could cause gout and rheumatoid arthritis. Celery seeds could also be used to treat conditions related to water retention such as edema and bloating. This amazing supplement is also has a high calcium content, which strengthens bones and promotes healthy bone development. Adding celery seeds to dishes could also help prevent teeth and bone diseases. Combining celery seed extract and carrot juice is helpful in treating several blood disorders.
