Blood Pressure (High)

Natural and Compounded Remedies for High Blood Pressure

High blood pressure (hypertension) is a condition where the force of circulating blood against artery walls remains elevated over time. If left unmanaged, it can damage the heart, kidneys, and blood vessels, increasing the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other serious conditions.


What Is Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure readings consist of:

  • Systolic pressure: The force when the heart pumps blood

  • Diastolic pressure: The force when the heart relaxes between beats

A normal reading is around 120/80 mmHg. Hypertension is diagnosed when readings are consistently 140/90 mmHg or higher.


Contributing Factors

Most hypertension is classified as essential hypertension, with no identifiable cause, but risk factors include:

  • Family history

  • Obesity

  • High-sodium diet

  • Sedentary lifestyle

  • Smoking

  • Chronic stress

  • Ethnic predisposition


Foundational Lifestyle Changes

Natural management begins with:

  • Daily physical activity (e.g., brisk walking)

  • Weight control

  • Low-sodium, plant-rich diet

  • Stress management

  • Limiting alcohol and processed foods
