correct!!! I lost 30 lbs,walk 4-6 miles per day, changed my diet, drink hibiscus tea, take,magnesium and eat beets. Now blood pressure is elevated again. My advice...turn off social media and news. I'm proof you can do everything right but if you are stressed forget it.Your BP will be elevated.
So helpful. My blood pressure was high , so I took my dog for a walk for about 40 mins. When I re- checked my blood pressure it had gone done significantly. It really works. Thank you for your tips.
I agree with everything you have said on your list, I've discovering the hard way over the last few years by researching anywhere I could find the correct information. It's has been a long hard journey for me anyway, I've been adding more of these methods as I learn them, thankfully I've lasted this long. My blood pressure can be as high as 220/120 and I could get it lowered day or night 24/7. Today is the first time I've seen the squeeze technique, I'm after eating a beetroot now I'm going for a jog. I'm now almost 58yo,I've had super high blood pressure for at least these last 20 years, I've only really addressed it for about the last 6 by natural lifestyle changes, it is still a daily battle but I consider the better lifestyle better than taking BP lowering medication, I believe our bodies have hundreds of self regulating controls just like a thermostatic controller in your house, If we override any of these it will mask the true cause of the imbalance that causes the blood pressure in the first place, it is better to address the cause if you can find it and even if you can't it's still necessary to life a healthy lifestyle to reduce all cause mortality.
Don't forget about hibiscus tea if you don't like beet juice. Hibiscus tea, or the Mexican Jamaica drink (like the tea only sweetened), reduce blood pressure significantly, and tastes a whole lot better than beet juice. Not that beet juice tastes bad because it really doesn't, but Hibiscus tastes a lot better. And you get a large bag of dried Hibiscus flowers at any Mexican grocery store for cheap, and it makes a LOT of tea or Jamaica drink.
I work in a outpatient clinic as a medical assistant. When I check in patients for their appointments, I instruct them to take 3 deep breaths and their their blood pressure while sitting up. Most of the time, I’ll get a near normal blood pressure reading. Deep breaths relaxes the circulatory system.
You are right, those points (in Time) creates anxiety and stress. I quit work ...and got away of toxic people and started to ride and walk and also started to concentrate relaxing my breathing by taking a deep breath on and exhaling it out very slowly. I don't take pills but eat better way too. I am 64.
Due to spinal issues I can't walk for very long periods of time without excessive paid etc. I can ride a bike without any significant issues so I ride 20 to 30 miles per day as weather permits and have significantly lowered my blood pressure as well as immensely improved the blood circulation in my legs. As I am 80 years old, I think this is great.
And interestingly when cycling you are also gripping the handle bar so this exercise is perfect to reduce blood pressure significantly. Just add the beet juice and you’re done.
Cardio exersise, weight lifting (only what's comfortable), anything that circulates the blood, is what keeps the blood pressure stable! 20-30 short minuites
Drink pineapple juice. Works all the time. Turns out, pineapple juice contains high amounts of potassium. It lowers the blood pressure within minutes. I have cans of Del Monte pineapple juice in my grocery cabinet as first aid stock.
I'm 71 now and was a serious cyclist, not racer but did many century and 5-day tours in my 40s, 50's and 60s. Now taking BP meds (atacand) which dilates the blood vessels. I take my BP at home and noticed that if I took my BP about an hour after a 16 mile fast paced ride my BP was substantially lower. Thanks, now I know it's not a fluke.
I'm 75 years old. As a part of a regular consultation to check on the efficacy of my current medication, my BP was a little elevated, 143/75 average of 10 readings. I have taken to running (jogging) for 2 months now, early morning, 3 half mile runs separated by a short walk. I have kept a spreadsheet and taken the average of 5 readings in the morning and 5 in the evening. WOW. Is my doctor pleased with his good advice?, 1/2 an hour exercise daily, reduce alcohol, reduce salt, eat less. My running BP average is 116/63 and a BPM of 53. I leave a 2 hour interval before the readings are taken. Oh, and I feel great, and a stone lighter (more fuel for the aeroplane !! 😎)
Hey doc! I did 5 minutes of deep breathing and squeezing at the same time, and my systolic dropped 22 freakin points!! 120/80! Not to mention, I haven't had an exact 120/80 since I was in my 20s or 30s because my diastolic is always 10-20pts low. THANKS
Yes. Working out really lowers BP. I had it as low as 104/62. I am normally in stage 1 hypertension. But a normal 1 hour workout lifting weights and 10 min cardio will bring it down below 120/80.
@@JohnGone-wl8uo You are right. Also stress is a big contributor to high blood pressure. Waste accumulated in the body due to constipation is also. Sludge in the bloodstream due to inadequate hydration (water intake). Drink at least 8-8oz cups of water daily. Begin the day with two cups of water in which you squeeze half of a fresh lemon and 1/8 teaspoon Celtic gray salt or Himalayan pink salt available from a health food store or whole foods market. Also add ground cayenne pepper, as much as you can tolerate and I often add turmeric powder too and magnesium powder. Take this first thing. Wait for at least an hour before taking any medications to prevent interactions. Increase vegetable consumption, both the amount and kinds. This will,help to provide needed nutrients that help with blood pressure control. Potassium rich foods especially, and all electrolyte foods. Whole grains like brown rice, millet, quinoa etc. Provide variety and good nutrients. Nuts and seeds, not in large quantities at any one time are good too, especially almonds, English walnuts, pecans, Brazil nuts, and sesame seeds, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, especially good for zinc which the body must have. Vitamin D-3 plus Vitamin K-2 supplements are necessary. Purchase from a health food store. Continue your exercise out doors. Here you also get exposure to sunshine for Vitamin D also and fresh air so needed to vitalize the blood. Regular, adequate amount of nightly sleep is very important to stabilizing good blood pressure. Cultivate a merry, rejoicing heart. Be thankful. Trust in God to help you in your weakness. He wants you to have good health and will help you achieve it.The more of these factors you implement, the better will be your results. Blessings to you.
The beet juice actually worked for me!!!! I'm impressed!! At first I was reluctant because I tried so many other things but nothing really helped. But my pressure had been hovering around 153/105 the highest being 159/ 103. I came across your video and decided to give the beet juice a try. I waited about 3hrs and sure enough to my surprise, I checked it and my blood pressure reading was 138/98. I am 50 yrs old. Thank you so much for this information. I will be adding this to my diet. I'm going to drink some in the morning then lunch and right before going to bed. Thanks for being the doctor of truth and the doctor of help!!!
Hey, I'm 67 and I just drank a big glass of beet juice, my systolic has been 160 and up and it scares me. I'm on two medications for it, but they don't seem to be helping at all after 3 months. I'm going to check my BP again in 3 hours and see if the beet juice had any effect.
For years, my blood pressure has been persistently, almost spitefully on the low side of normal. As I've matured like fine wine and put on considerable weight, it's been creeping up to the high side of normal. Good to know the 20 minute walk can address that AND help with weight management. Thanks for posting.
@@annazfker2028 A 20 min walk will help, but it won't burn calories. You need to get that heart rate up and keep it up for a good 20 minutes (more is better) lol to help lose weight. I work out with Leslie Sansone Walking videos. She gets up 5 miles an hour. there are lots of videos on youtube. :)
@@marilynking4003 I believe dr Adam story wasn’t necessarily talking about a 20 minute walk for loosing weight. It was about the overall, get up and move.
Retired NP - I appreciate natural healthcare intervention, especially since I am now 80-Y.O. And yes, I am aware of untoward adverse side effects that Big-Pharma tries to downplay and completely ignore natural treatments. Guess this is where ‘patient education’ comes to play. Thank you and yes, I subscribed -- 😅💦
I found taking deep breaths for a few minutes works to lower my BP considerably and also not letting my arm hang down when testing it helps. I consider 120/70 good.
Last week I had 140 BP then started walking as excise of 45 min the next day it was 120 BP. Am not on medication but seems this is going to be my new life style for all my life. Am making a week on Thursday and I sleep and feel fit. No more lazy excuses all his advise is good also do breathing excises.
I was having a hard time I've never had high Blood Pressure before untill the day I had my child. I had pre eclampsia that day and it has persisted. I have a lot of days where it's lower and then some higher. i want to lose a lot of weight. I'm currently 210 pounds. And I've already lost 30 pounds. But I would like to be like 160. Daughter is now 9 months old. i will keep going. thanks for the inspiration.
I have high blood pressure that has been very difficult to control. Having watched a lot of your videos I’m getting better results and feeling more positive. ‘Forearmed is forewarned”. Obtaining clearly explained advice makes my situation feel less scary.Thankyou.
I bought a beet juice powder. I also heard that Chia Seeds reduce blood pressure so I mixed a tablespoon of chia seeds in with my beet juice and drank it. My blood pressure went down significantly. I just did my blood pressure cuff and it read 104/71, which is pretty good. I also do the deep breathing exercises where I exhale slowly for longer than I've inhaled. That works really well too.
Yes, the deep breathing works for me. I lay down , inhale through my nose hold it for a few seconds and then exhale slowly through pursed lips. I do this for a bout 10 / fifteen minutes. monitoring the BP readings and can go from 180/98 to 135/72
I'm having such a hard time lowering my blood pressure, so watching this cheers me up. I'm due for eye surgery and I was told thaty pressure is too high
@@koolpaulchillz6454 I'm having the same problem, I need a tooth pulled but my pressure been so high they won't pull it. I go back on Friday, I pray my pressure is down!
@@koolpaulchillz6454 There is a special American dental tool called a PHYSICS FORCEPS and designed to be clamped under the root area which applies pressure for forcing tooth upwards. I live in Australia but few know of this process. Although the normal extraction time is 4 minutes a local anaesthetic is still needed. I have deep rooted teeth. This tool was used for extreme back molar - UNBELIEVABLY NON-TRAUMATIC PROCESS WITH FAST HEALING. There is no drilling or gouging into the jawline creating extra damage with process. To find out which dental practices use this tool I needed to contact the suppliers and track from there - this was the hardest part but there are videos online. This info alone may reduce your blood pressure - lol !!
Very interesting, I have an old school hand grip exerciser that I still mess around with but now I'm going to use it everyday and watch my blood pressure. Thank you.
Something that works to dilate the blood vessels and lower blood pressure more with a lot less trouble than beet juice is a supplement containing L-Arginine and L-Citrulline. I take it daily along with magnesium and fish oil. There are different forms of magnesium so you should Google forms of magnesium to determine which would work best for you. I am 75 and my pressure was running 145 over 90 until I started the above and becoming more active. I don't do a formal workout, I garden, mow my own yard, camp, kayak and take short hikes. January and February are my worst months for activity. My BP now is 125/ 70
@@godiscominggodiscoming8156 Nope, it is just an herb supplement that dilates the blood vessels to lower blood pressure and increase basic energy. It doesn't add strength or endurance like creatine will.
Beet root "juice" powder is the best and most concentrated. Works for me. For exercise I rebound. You can do it when it rains and when it's too cold or hot.
I am due for my DOT physical which is required to have a CDL license and one of their strictest requirements is healthy blood pressure. This helps to keep blood pressure in passing range. Beet juice itsself is not available at my local grocery stores but gripping things and walking should help lower blood pressure significantly
Really great advice. I have reduced my blood pressure naturally. It took a combination of supplements, foods and exercise. I never wanted to take medication, and now I don’t need to.
U mean u were advised medicine u took them for some time meanwhile you did followed good exercise food etc n the medicine stopped . I have heard that once a person starts BP pills it needs to be taken all life
I read that an immediate drop in blood pressure cause a stroke. But I have had been juice when stressed, not realizing it would actually droop blood pressure. Also I read that isometric raise blood pressure. Who is reading the correct info. Like pressing our palms together is isometric.
for me the only way to lower my blood pressure is by doing quick aerobic exercises ..no other easy way. I wish other ways works such driniking ACV , lemon water etc.. they helped some but nothing beats aerobics or doing weights or yoga.. Nothing as easy but good old fashion exercises for me, thanks doc simply love your show🤗🤗💜💜
Adam, thank you for this video. It is the first of your videos I've seen, but this is a very important subject for me, as my wife has high blood pressure and mine has slowly increased over the past couple of years as we approach 60. One thing I would change is your use of "instantly" lowers blood pressure when you say it is actually over a three hour period. Maybe "immediately" would work better, meaning same day results as instantly pretty much means right now.
Add breathing as well as to lower blood pressure, 4,7, 8 principles. 4 seconds inhaling from the nose, 7 seconds keep inside, 8 seconds exhaling from the mouth everything sitting comfortably. 5 breaths, about five times a day or more will lower diastolic blood pressure up to 10 points right away and as a result, the Systolic will be lower too because the limbic system is reset.
Super interesting and yet simple. Will definitely be doing all three for a week and comment back. So tired of these blood pressure meds making me feel like it's freezing in a 68 degree room.
I'm watching a man a bit older than me just starting bp meds - dizzy, fatigued ,weak - no thanks! I'm very active and would rather have another 5 years enjoying life than another 10 feeling puny!
@@judymiller5154 hi maybe that man need to change his blood pressure medication. Maybe the dosage is too high. Not all bp meds gives these side effect.
@@judymiller5154 I had the same thing last fall, I had to stop taking them, I was non functional, dizzy, very blurred vision, insomnia. I would never take these again. And they told me it was one of the ones with the least side effects. I will do anything to avoid ever having to take these.
@@sherylsmith2009 I'm not able to second-guess the decisions of his doctor. All I know is an apparently healthy, vigorous man had a huge decrease in his quality of life by following doctor's orders to take this medication without ANY discussion of losing weight, deep breathing, walking etc etc
I was very worried my bp was 170, I followed you as you did the breathing exercises and my bp was 155, thank you! ( Still not good but much better for the moment)
Isometric squeeze only works for Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the legs or lower extremities is the narrowing or blockage of the vessels that carry blood from the heart to the legs.

@@clarkclarke Actually she is almost dead. Her girlfriends bought her a male stripper and she screwed him. In the process she caught an STD, Super Chlamydia. Her kidneys , liver and spleen are shutting down. Best part is I did not have to do a thing and she killed herself. lol.
I appreciate these tips. My blood pressure has been high. My doctor has been trying for a few years to put me on medication but I am avoiding this. I love to eat beets, I just ordered beets supplements from Amazon. Thank you.
Please be careful. You need to get your blood pressure down. My brother in law ignored his and he had a massive stroke and ended up in the hospital. He can't do much for himself now and is being cared for by my niece. Get your blood pressure down.
I'm 76 spent most of my life doing carpentry work and now do physical work almost daily, clocking up around 50,000 movements each week. Today was 11090 according to my Suunto watch yet in the last 3 years have had high BP in the 130-140 range. Enjoyed Japanese food too much I think, so decided to get tough on the diet side with zero salt, more fruit with only vegetables in the evening and Fish or Eggs once each day.
I’ve tried many things with little change, I regularly exercise, take beet supplement (and several others). I’ve tried the grip and breathing and already regularly exercise; however, when I reduced my caffeine intake I started to notice a significant change. Previously I had two cups of coffee in the morning and a 120mg caffeinated drink in the afternoon. I’ve reduced that to drinking decaf coffee and no caffeine in the afternoon. Systolic came down ~15 points and diastolic came down about ~ 10 points. During this time I’ve lost a little weight (5-10 pounds), eating more fish and less pork (sausage and bacon), which have likely contributed to the reduction.
Best thing to do to lower blood pressure is low carb diet, cut out refined sugars, try to loose any excess weight and exercise, 3 mile walk a day is good.
Eating a high carb diet + processed food and sugar - will jack up your blood pressure. Without daily exercise (walking 10,000 steps a week] it could be worse.
Thank u. Just unboxed my CVS SERIES 100 blood pressure monitor. It gave me 3 normal readings and then boom 204 /69. I am going nuts. I hate digital monitors.
I take 2 blood pressure medications and I went walking one day. I got dizzy and had to stop. My doctor explained to me about walking and the lowering of the blood pressure.
Had a major seizure in 1997 and it destroyed me. Have had BP up and down (to the point where I faint) for years. Doctors don't know how to help me anymore for the BP meds do not work. I can go from fainting to 200+ in seconds. It has happened in the hospital, doctors' offices, and even though they feel sorry and try to help, they have run out of meds to give me. (I have lost count of how many I have tried.) Belief in the Lord Jesus Christ has stopped me from doing a stupidity. Life is too precious to throw it in the garbage. Therefore, I have been trying to take care of it on my own. At around 8pm today 3/24/22, BP was 208/127/81 (it comes without warning and comes with #2, nausea, dizziness [have to hold to walls or I will fall], burping, shaking inside, etc.), and then I am exhausted to the point I cannot do anything. I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital.... again. Then started searching in YT about how to lower BP and came upon your video. I had some canned beets and took like a quarter cup of the juice and then started squeezing a towel. As I am writing this it is 169/108/72 (It took about 15 minutes from when I took the beet juice). Thank you, thank you for sharing this information.
@@storm1364 Yes. I hv considered that but it wd be the longest panic attack ever for it does not stop and since I had the latest cold it is getting worst and worse. A couple days ago at 🏡 it went 78/50 to almost immediately 206/122. And it comes accompanied as if my autonomic system takes over and it is overwhelming. Sometimes it lasts for days. No medication helps. Dotors have given up on me because they don't know what else to do. And when it decides to stop, I'm "dead". Don't even know who I am. It is weird, but as I always say, it is well with my soul. Eventually, the solution will knock at my door and it will be the perfect time. Thank you for the suggestion of the panic attack.
I would like to share, I have borderline hypertension and I discovered the best food to reduce my BP is in this order : 1) Spinach(all variety), 2) onion 3) garlic. Besides, do some deep breathing can instantly reduce BP too, so the best way to maintain good healthy BP is to exercise that induce natural deep breathing, I no longer can run due to knee cartilage problem n thus swimming is now my regular exercise! 👍🙏
That was very good info....I wish I had known that last week at the dentist because my blood pressure was too high and he wouldn't pull my bad tooth.:(
I have treated hypertension. I started beet juice, walk everyday and squeeze a stress ball (didn’t know about that one) . BP has gone from 145/95 to 103/71. Now so low I get dizzy
@@brianedwardsu7404 found out it was vitamin D deficiency. Also the bp was correlated to atlas bone correction and TMJ treatment. Chiropractor is a lifesaver
I’ve never heard of squeezing something is ethically before. I know beets are good for you but didn’t know about the nitric oxide benefit. I’ve always drank hibiscus tea for the blood pressure and my husband takes l’arginine formula for the nitric oxide benefits. I remember hating beets as a kid and have never tried them as an adult. I am going to give them a try. I’ve always exercised, BP is 110/65 with no meds.
Research Niacin it’s a cheap supplement and it’s great for blood flow(to decrease HBP and it’s great for blood flow to the manly region)… MANY doctors are now telling patients about it and actually subscribing it(if you can take the Lil hot flush go with that version it’s the best if not get the flush-free formula it’ll take a lil longer for results)……
I forgot about hibiscus tea… That has worked well for me also! I haven't fixed any in a while because of the time it takes and the commitment to making a very large batch because I make it out of Roselle, then I add all the good stuff as if I was making Sorrel: cinnamon stick, cloves, a Bayleaf and star anise. Now I am taking French white OPC extract by Terry naturally as well as some Avena sativa/oatstraw. I also have been taking Curamed contains high amounts of curcuminoids and it's also by Terry naturally
The moment I go to any doctor..immediately my BP goes thru the roof. I always get sick and anxious even if I know I'm just there for a simple visit or dental cleaning. I can't help it
Well this is good news! I am a 77 year old woman and have normally low to normal blood pressure , 120/70 on any given day like even at the dentist's, EXCEPT when I am at the doctor's office. Immediately after I walk in, step on then off the scale the nurse slaps the cuff on. The last time I was there I was told I might have hypertension. I am so sure I don't, that I am going to try at least one of these tips at my next doctor's appointment and see what happens. Thank you so much.
White coat hypertension. I had a coworker that had an extreme case like this. We would take her blood pressure a couple of times a day for an entire week prior to her doctor visit. Her BP numbers looked good until they spiked up during her doctor visit. They would return to normal when she returned to the office, or when I would see her the next day. She told me she could "feel" her BP going up on the way into the doctor's office.
It is normal that in the medical office they always find the pressure of the high people because it is convenient for them to prescribe drugs for life, they represent the economic interests of the big pharmacies and many some people know this and distrust the doctors and it is normal To raise the pressure while we are in the doctor's office, because we feel mistrust of them, or sometimes some doctors try to make their patients sick by suggesting and manipulating them. The drug business is a great medical corruption.
This is very helpful information. Thank you so much! I have been doing three out of the four you mentioned. I take beet root tablets, I walk every day and I take magnesium.
Im 58 years old i have work out for over 40 years and can't enthusias enough that working out lifting weights, riding bicycles, kettlebell bells, bodyweight exercise, which now it's bodyweight, jogging for me what i do....never ever had high blood pressure and it runs in my family...just move, do something your metabolism is slow because you have been inactive for a long time so you can't just say hey, I have a slow metabolism....of course you do after sitting on your butt for 10, 15, 20, years...walk, hike, you can make time for it...put your cell phone down and start believe me your energy, mood, and just plain feel better will start immediately.....i work with people who are under 40 and can't walk up 10 flights of steps because all they do is stay on their cell phones.....and they all have health issues... especially obesity..
Find the reading high, just ignore it, fret, it will get worse. Get out walk or get some effort used to move the pressure. Work or just do some exertions. It works.
I've already been using beet juice and walking. Beet juice works most of the time for me and I need to walk consistently daily. First time hearing about the isometric squeezing. Thanks
Grounding/Earthing aka Barefoot walking in grass, dirt,sand, rock even untreated wet concrete. Also sleep grounded w Mattress Cover- 128 days today. 75 yrs Many health & emotional benefits.
It's a great video about lowering your blood pressure but for some people who can't walk for one reason have a stationary bicycle in your house or apartment or use your regular bicycle and put it on a platform where you could just pedal it without moving it you get great exercise no pollution to breed and also you're in one safe place so try it you'll see I give this video a five star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💯👍❤️☺️
Beet tablets were the beginning of my slide down. Exercise did nothing by itself. I still walk though! I noticed that when I went swimming one day, I felt so good working on my arms, that I had the sense that strengthening my arms also contributes to lower bp. Garlic is helping also along with breathing exercises, and some supplements. And of course sleep and hydration, and good food. I have a little calcification and plaque , so I have to work a little harder at it
@@jonameeb Lower number is diastolic and higher number is systolic. No other complaints. No panting, no heavy breathing, good energy while walking etc. but BP numbers don’t come down. Now taking beet juice regularly for the last 3 weeks.
BP dropped 30 points doing this before my Doc. appt: 1. Took off work 2. Did a 30-minute workout about 2hrs before the appt. 3. Drank water all day, no coffee 4. Took Beet Root capsules with water before the workout 5. Took a warm shower and did a 15-min cool down right before the appt. My doctor and his assistant were high fiving me on my way out the door.
hey thats some really good information and w mans for dropping 30 points, also i just wanted to ask what was your blood pressure before hand, i am 15 m and 64 kg, i have been exercising alot recently as i was told i have hypertension, 140/80 but this was about 2 weeks ago since my checkup, i also am not obese, i think my eating habits really got the best of me tho, as i am skinny and tryna gain weight,
Instead of ice cream. Put cocoa powder with cinnamon in a container. Buy yogurt, that has low sugar. Buy beet powder that has low sugar. Ginger powder. Add to yogurt with low sugar, then stir. Add frozen blue berries to yogurt then stir, better than ice cream.
Blood pressure medication has never lowered my rate. Drs hate this because they offer no alternatives. Most of these I have tried but have short term affects. Been on beet juice for only two weeks now, and if you evacuate your bowels quickly, it looks like blood in your stool, so don’t freak out. Staying away from negative, agitated people does a world of good, because I haven’t found an empathic shield as of yet. Sad, but there are a lot of angry people out in the world right now. My grandmother had H/B and had a stroke where she bled through her eyes ears and nose to let off the pressure. After a half an hour she got up off the floor cleaned herself up and went back to cleaning the house. But that’s women from the old country. She was 90 at the time. My mother would quip, she had H/B till she stopped taking the meds and it went down, now I’m the next contestant on, who’s got H/B.
Juicing whole stalk of celery every day and drinking it every morning my grandma took it along with here BP pills and after a month she was able to get off her meds
Beet juice and beets in general! I ate a bag of beet chips the other day and later on had checked my blood pressure and was shocked to see it down by 20 points. I wasn't sure why it was so much lower but after reviewing what I ate that day the only thing I did differently was eat that bag of chips. I do like the 20 minute walk as a natural way to reduce BP.
First Rule: Stay away from negativity and negative people !!
correct!!! I lost 30 lbs,walk 4-6 miles per day, changed my diet, drink hibiscus tea, take,magnesium and eat beets. Now blood pressure is elevated again. My advice...turn off social media and news. I'm proof you can do everything right but if you are stressed forget it.Your BP will be elevated.

2 - Asymmetric squeeze
3 - Daily walk
4 - Magnesium intake
5 - Breath deep In and slowly longer Out
6 - Hydrate

What about beet pills?
I think isometric
I agree with everything you have said on your list, I've discovering the hard way over the last few years by researching anywhere I could find the correct information. It's has been a long hard journey for me anyway, I've been adding more of these methods as I learn them, thankfully I've lasted this long. My blood pressure can be as high as 220/120 and I could get it lowered day or night 24/7. Today is the first time I've seen the squeeze technique, I'm after eating a beetroot now I'm going for a jog. I'm now almost 58yo,I've had super high blood pressure for at least these last 20 years, I've only really addressed it for about the last 6 by natural lifestyle changes, it is still a daily battle but I consider the better lifestyle better than taking BP lowering medication, I believe our bodies have hundreds of self regulating controls just like a thermostatic controller in your house, If we override any of these it will mask the true cause of the imbalance that causes the blood pressure in the first place, it is better to address the cause if you can find it and even if you can't it's still necessary to life a healthy lifestyle to reduce all cause mortality.
Isometric squeeze
Don't forget about hibiscus tea if you don't like beet juice. Hibiscus tea, or the Mexican Jamaica drink (like the tea only sweetened), reduce blood pressure significantly, and tastes a whole lot better than beet juice. Not that beet juice tastes bad because it really doesn't, but Hibiscus tastes a lot better. And you get a large bag of dried Hibiscus flowers at any Mexican grocery store for cheap, and it makes a LOT of tea or Jamaica drink.
I work in a outpatient clinic as a medical assistant. When I check in patients for their appointments, I instruct them to take 3 deep breaths and their their blood pressure while sitting up.

You are right, those points (in Time) creates anxiety and stress. I quit work ...and got away of toxic people and started to ride and walk and also started to concentrate relaxing my breathing by taking a deep breath on and exhaling it out very slowly. I don't take pills but eat better way too. I am 64.
Due to spinal issues I can't walk for very long periods of time without excessive paid etc. I can ride a bike without any significant issues so I ride 20 to 30 miles per day as weather permits and have significantly lowered my blood pressure as well as immensely improved the blood circulation in my legs. As I am 80 years old, I think this is great.
Miles or Minutes /day?
@@shantakulkarni923 Miles
And interestingly when cycling you are also gripping the handle bar so this exercise is perfect to reduce blood pressure significantly. Just add the beet juice and you’re done.
@@pauloconnell7668 that’s a lot 😳 I’m 13 I can barley go 4 miles 😂
Try Pilates for your feet. It takes a while but your feet and ankles shift and screw up your hips thus your back
Cardio exersise, weight lifting (only what's comfortable), anything that circulates the blood, is what keeps the blood pressure stable! 20-30 short minuites
Drink pineapple juice. Works all the time. Turns out, pineapple juice contains high amounts of potassium. It lowers the blood pressure within minutes. I have cans of Del Monte pineapple juice in my grocery cabinet as first aid stock.
I'm 71 now and was a serious cyclist, not racer but did many century and 5-day tours in my 40s, 50's and 60s. Now taking BP meds (atacand) which dilates the blood vessels. I take my BP at home and noticed that if I took my BP about an hour after a 16 mile fast paced ride my BP was substantially lower. Thanks, now I know it's not a fluke.
I'm 75 years old. As a part of a regular consultation to check on the efficacy of my current medication, my BP was a little elevated, 143/75 average of 10 readings. I have taken to running (jogging) for 2 months now, early morning, 3 half mile runs separated by a short walk. I have kept a spreadsheet and taken the average of 5 readings in the morning and 5 in the evening. WOW. Is my doctor pleased with his good advice?, 1/2 an hour exercise daily, reduce alcohol, reduce salt, eat less. My running BP average is 116/63 and a BPM of 53. I leave a 2 hour interval before the readings are taken. Oh, and I feel great, and a stone lighter (more fuel for the aeroplane !! 😎)

Best things for hypertension:
1: Potassium
2: Magnesium
3: Hawthorn
4: GABA
5: Grapeseed Exract
HIBISCUS TEA AND CORIANDER POWDER IS ALSO GOOD FOR HYPERTENSION.
1. Beet juice
2. Isometric squeezing of the hand
3. Walking.
doesn't work if the HBP is hereditary
Drink beet juice?
@@crush42mash6 Jamaica and cherry juice also lower BP, but which is best? I suppose drink whichever one is easiest to get in your area.
@@crush42mash6 Yes, it improves circulation by activating nitric oxide in the body, dilating your blood vessels.
@@PhuckHue2 yes been told mines genetic, I’m slim, eat healthy and walked all before I was diagnosed with hbp
Hey doc! I did 5 minutes of deep breathing and squeezing at the same time, and my systolic dropped 22 freakin points!! 120/80! Not to mention, I haven't had an exact 120/80 since I was in my 20s or 30s because my diastolic is always 10-20pts low. THANKS
Yes. Working out really lowers BP. I had it as low as 104/62. I am normally in stage 1 hypertension. But a normal 1 hour workout lifting weights and 10 min cardio will bring it down below 120/80.
is playing basketball a good way to lower my blood pressure?
That’s absolute bull shit
I run 5 times a week and still have high blood pressure.
@@JohnGone-wl8uo You are right. Also stress is a big contributor to high blood pressure. Waste accumulated in the body due to constipation is also. Sludge in the bloodstream due to inadequate hydration (water intake). Drink at least 8-8oz cups of water daily. Begin the day with two cups of water in which you squeeze half of a fresh lemon and 1/8 teaspoon Celtic gray salt or Himalayan pink salt available from a health food store or whole foods market. Also add ground cayenne pepper, as much as you can tolerate and I often add turmeric powder too and magnesium powder. Take this first thing. Wait for at least an hour before taking any medications to prevent interactions.
Increase vegetable consumption, both the amount and kinds. This will,help to provide needed nutrients that help with blood pressure control. Potassium rich foods especially, and all electrolyte foods. Whole grains like brown rice, millet, quinoa etc.
Provide variety and good nutrients. Nuts and seeds, not in large quantities at any one time are good too, especially almonds, English walnuts, pecans, Brazil nuts, and sesame seeds, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, especially good for zinc which the body must have. Vitamin D-3 plus Vitamin K-2 supplements are necessary. Purchase from a health food store.
Continue your exercise out doors. Here you also get exposure to sunshine for Vitamin D also and fresh air so needed to vitalize the blood. Regular, adequate amount of nightly sleep is very important to stabilizing good blood pressure. Cultivate a merry, rejoicing heart. Be thankful. Trust in God to help you in your weakness. He wants you to have good health and will help you achieve it.The more of these factors you implement, the better will be your results. Blessings to you.

I tried the isometric exercise and that is no joke. It really does drop your BP!
I've been doing intermittent fasting and have noticed that my blood pressure is generally lower when I fast for 14-16 hours on a regular basis.
The beet juice actually worked for me!!!! I'm impressed!! At first I was reluctant because I tried so many other things but nothing really helped. But my pressure had been hovering around 153/105 the highest being 159/ 103. I came across your video and decided to give the beet juice a try. I waited about 3hrs and sure enough to my surprise, I checked it and my blood pressure reading was 138/98. I am 50 yrs old. Thank you so much for this information. I will be adding this to my diet. I'm going to drink some in the morning then lunch and right before going to bed. Thanks for being the doctor of truth and the doctor of help!!!
Hey, I'm 67 and I just drank a big glass of beet juice, my systolic has been 160 and up and it scares me. I'm on two medications for it, but they don't seem to be helping at all after 3 months. I'm going to check my BP again in 3 hours and see if the beet juice had any effect.
How often did you drink the beet juice?
@@saintgee101 I drink it every morning with my BP meds. About 6 oz.
this sounds so great instead of stressing about highblood pressure
For years, my blood pressure has been persistently, almost spitefully on the low side of normal. As I've matured like fine wine and put on considerable weight, it's been creeping up to the high side of normal. Good to know the 20 minute walk can address that AND help with weight management. Thanks for posting.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT NUTRITION MEANS ?
@@annazfker2028 yes. That's why I'm looking at a low glycemic index nutrition plan.
@@annazfker2028 A 20 min walk will help, but it won't burn calories. You need to get that heart rate up and keep it up for a good 20 minutes (more is better) lol to help lose weight. I work out with Leslie Sansone Walking videos. She gets up 5 miles an hour. there are lots of videos on youtube. :)
I'm in same boat
@@marilynking4003 I believe dr Adam story wasn’t necessarily talking about a 20 minute walk for loosing weight. It was about the overall, get up and move.

Very heartening. My grip strength has moved up immeasurably since I’ve been working out with kettlebells
Wonderful!

I found taking deep breaths for a few minutes works to lower my BP considerably and also not letting my arm hang down when testing it helps. I consider 120/70 good.
Last week I had 140 BP then started walking as excise of 45 min the next day it was 120 BP.
Am not on medication but seems this is going to be my new life style for all my life.
Am making a week on Thursday and I sleep and feel fit.
No more lazy excuses all his advise is good also do breathing excises.
I was having a hard time I've never had high Blood Pressure before untill the day I had my child. I had pre eclampsia that day and it has persisted. I have a lot of days where it's lower and then some higher. i want to lose a lot of weight. I'm currently 210 pounds. And I've already lost 30 pounds. But I would like to be like 160. Daughter is now 9 months old. i will keep going. thanks for the inspiration.
update im currently 197 and doing well
I have high blood pressure that has been very difficult to control. Having watched a lot of your videos I’m getting better results and feeling more positive. ‘Forearmed is forewarned”. Obtaining clearly explained advice makes my situation feel less scary.Thankyou.
I bought a beet juice powder. I also heard that Chia Seeds reduce blood pressure so I mixed a tablespoon of chia seeds in with my beet juice and drank it. My blood pressure went down significantly. I just did my blood pressure cuff and it read 104/71, which is pretty good. I also do the deep breathing exercises where I exhale slowly for longer than I've inhaled. That works really well too.
Yes, the deep breathing works for me. I lay down , inhale through my nose hold it for a few seconds and then exhale slowly through pursed lips. I do this for a bout 10 / fifteen minutes. monitoring the BP readings and can go from 180/98 to 135/72

@@koolpaulchillz6454 There is a special American dental tool called a PHYSICS FORCEPS and designed to be clamped under the root area which applies pressure for forcing tooth upwards.

This tool was used for extreme back molar - UNBELIEVABLY NON-TRAUMATIC PROCESS WITH FAST HEALING. There is no drilling or gouging into the jawline creating extra damage with process. To find out which dental practices use this tool I needed to contact the suppliers and track from there - this was the hardest part but there are videos online.

Very interesting, I have an old school hand grip exerciser that I still mess around with but now I'm going to use it everyday and watch my blood pressure. Thank you.
But that wouldn't be considered "isometric" since your hand is in motion. I wonder if there's a difference?
@@jimbig3997 Jim, I thought that too, but if you hold it instead of squeezing and releasing the handles, I would think that is an isometric hold.
I have one of these hand grip exercisers as well. Did this work for you?
I walk everyday three times per day,I experienced lower BP,I'm recommending to my friends and others,thx v much.
Something that works to dilate the blood vessels and lower blood pressure more with a lot less trouble than beet juice is a supplement containing L-Arginine and L-Citrulline. I take it daily along with magnesium and fish oil. There are different forms of magnesium so you should Google forms of magnesium to determine which would work best for you. I am 75 and my pressure was running 145 over 90 until I started the above and becoming more active. I don't do a formal workout, I garden, mow my own yard, camp, kayak and take short hikes. January and February are my worst months for activity. My BP now is 125/ 70
@@godiscominggodiscoming8156 Nope, it is just an herb supplement that dilates the blood vessels to lower blood pressure and increase basic energy. It doesn't add strength or endurance like creatine will.
Beet root "juice" powder is the best and most concentrated. Works for me. For exercise I rebound. You can do it when it rains and when it's too cold or hot.
I am due for my DOT physical which is required to have a CDL license and one of their strictest requirements is healthy blood pressure. This helps to keep blood pressure in passing range. Beet juice itsself is not available at my local grocery stores but gripping things and walking should help lower blood pressure significantly
I love these tips. Especially the post exercise blood pressure lowering effect of walking, so cool.
Really great advice. I have reduced my blood pressure naturally. It took a combination of supplements, foods and exercise. I never wanted to take medication, and now I don’t need to.
U mean u were advised medicine u took them for some time meanwhile you did followed good exercise food etc n the medicine stopped . I have heard that once a person starts BP pills it needs to be taken all life
Love these videos on lowering blood pressure Adam keep up the good work.
I read that an immediate drop in blood pressure cause a stroke. But I have had been juice when stressed, not realizing it would actually droop blood pressure. Also I read that isometric raise blood pressure. Who is reading the correct info. Like pressing our palms together is isometric.
Thanks for getting straight to the point! So refreshing. Will certainly try your recommendations
for me the only way to lower my blood pressure is by doing quick aerobic exercises ..no other easy way. I wish other ways works such driniking ACV , lemon water etc.. they helped some but nothing beats aerobics or doing weights or yoga.. Nothing as easy but good old fashion exercises for me, thanks doc simply love your show🤗🤗💜💜
Adam, thank you for this video. It is the first of your videos I've seen, but this is a very important subject for me, as my wife has high blood pressure and mine has slowly increased over the past couple of years as we approach 60.
One thing I would change is your use of "instantly" lowers blood pressure when you say it is actually over a three hour period. Maybe "immediately" would work better, meaning same day results as instantly pretty much means right now.
Welcome to the channel
👍
I would go as far to say change it to, “You should see results within a few hours”. Even ‘immediately’ makes you think within a few minutes.
It makes sense transferring your anger or frustrations on any materialistic things can lower your blood pressure 🤗
Add breathing as well as to lower blood pressure, 4,7, 8 principles. 4 seconds inhaling from the nose, 7 seconds keep inside, 8 seconds exhaling from the mouth everything sitting comfortably. 5 breaths, about five times a day or more will lower diastolic blood pressure up to 10 points right away and as a result, the Systolic will be lower too because the limbic system is reset.
Super interesting and yet simple. Will definitely be doing all three for a week and comment back. So tired of these blood pressure meds making me feel like it's freezing in a 68 degree room.

@@judymiller5154 hi maybe that man need to change his blood pressure medication. Maybe the dosage is too high. Not all bp meds gives these side effect.
@@judymiller5154 I had the same thing last fall, I had to stop taking them, I was non functional, dizzy, very blurred vision, insomnia. I would never take these again. And they told me it was one of the ones with the least side effects. I will do anything to avoid ever having to take these.
@@sherylsmith2009 I'm not able to second-guess the decisions of his doctor. All I know is an apparently healthy, vigorous man had a huge decrease in his quality of life by following doctor's orders to take this medication without ANY discussion of losing weight, deep breathing, walking etc etc
I was very worried my bp was 170, I followed you as you did the breathing exercises and my bp was 155, thank you! ( Still not good but much better for the moment)
Great job!
Did your bp remained low for a long time or did it go up again after deep breathing.
Isometric squeeze only works for Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the legs or lower extremities is the narrowing or blockage of the vessels that carry blood from the heart to the legs. (According to this journal:

Get your blood pressure down.

@@ELBrown213 I don't really know. He had a stroke and ended up in the hospital.
I'm 76 spent most of my life doing carpentry work and now do physical work almost daily, clocking up around 50,000 movements each week. Today was 11090 according to my Suunto watch yet in the last 3 years have had high BP in the 130-140 range. Enjoyed Japanese food too much I think, so decided to get tough on the diet side with zero salt, more fruit with only vegetables in the evening and Fish or Eggs once each day.
I’ve tried many things with little change, I regularly exercise, take beet supplement (and several others). I’ve tried the grip and breathing and already regularly exercise; however, when I reduced my caffeine intake I started to notice a significant change. Previously I had two cups of coffee in the morning and a 120mg caffeinated drink in the afternoon. I’ve reduced that to drinking decaf coffee and no caffeine in the afternoon. Systolic came down ~15 points and diastolic came down about ~ 10 points. During this time I’ve lost a little weight (5-10 pounds), eating more fish and less pork (sausage and bacon), which have likely contributed to the reduction.
Adam, you are doing something that is great. Contribution to world health. Best always mate
Best thing to do to lower blood pressure is low carb diet, cut out refined sugars, try to loose any excess weight and exercise, 3 mile walk a day is good.
I completely agree.
...that routine would cure a lot of ailments ...
Eating a high carb diet + processed food and sugar - will jack up your blood pressure. Without daily exercise (walking 10,000 steps a week] it could be worse.

Thank u. Just unboxed my CVS SERIES 100 blood pressure monitor. It gave me 3 normal readings and then boom 204 /69. I am going nuts. I hate digital monitors.
I take 2 blood pressure medications and I went walking one day. I got dizzy and had to stop. My doctor explained to me about walking and the lowering of the blood pressure.
Exactly.......
Thank you for sharing your video. It's informative, educational, valuable & helpful. I appreciate your precious time greatly.
My only question is why would you want to reduce 120/72 ? That is optimal
I remembered this from a day or so ago, needed to listen again. Just ordered beet juice caps.
Had a major seizure in 1997 and it destroyed me. Have had BP up and down (to the point where I faint) for years. Doctors don't know how to help me anymore for the BP meds do not work. I can go from fainting to 200+ in seconds. It has happened in the hospital, doctors' offices, and even though they feel sorry and try to help, they have run out of meds to give me. (I have lost count of how many I have tried.)
Belief in the Lord Jesus Christ has stopped me from doing a stupidity. Life is too precious to throw it in the garbage.
Therefore, I have been trying to take care of it on my own. At around 8pm today 3/24/22, BP was 208/127/81 (it comes without warning and comes with #2, nausea, dizziness [have to hold to walls or I will fall], burping, shaking inside, etc.), and then I am exhausted to the point I cannot do anything. I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital.... again.
Then started searching in YT about how to lower BP and came upon your video.
I had some canned beets and took like a quarter cup of the juice and then started squeezing a towel. As I am writing this it is 169/108/72 (It took about 15 minutes from when I took the beet juice).
Thank you, thank you for sharing this information.
You said it goes low and high. Just curious if your doctors ever considered that you'd be having a panic attack whenever you go?
@@storm1364 Yes. I hv considered that but it wd be the longest panic attack ever for it does not stop and since I had the latest cold it is getting worst and worse. A couple days ago at 🏡 it went 78/50 to almost immediately 206/122. And it comes accompanied as if my autonomic system takes over and it is overwhelming. Sometimes it lasts for days. No medication helps. Dotors have given up on me because they don't know what else to do. And when it decides to stop, I'm "dead". Don't even know who I am. It is weird, but as I always say, it is well with my soul. Eventually, the solution will knock at my door and it will be the perfect time. Thank you for the suggestion of the panic attack.
@Di's Planet It gave me a horrible migraine almost ended up on the ER.
I would like to share, I have borderline hypertension and I discovered the best food to reduce my BP is in this order : 1) Spinach(all variety), 2) onion 3) garlic. Besides, do some deep breathing can instantly reduce BP too, so the best way to maintain good healthy BP is to exercise that induce natural deep breathing, I no longer can run due to knee cartilage problem n thus swimming is now my regular exercise! 👍🙏
Love the info!!! Any extra knowledge helps us put together our own personal path to walk!!! Thanks so much....more please!
Great information! And I just subscribed. Shoveling dirt in my garden lately makes my blood pressure go down.
Great information! I have been riding a recumbent bike most days and my BP truly lowered way below 120/80.

Wow, thank you so much, I exercise regularly and take medication and have the problem that my blood pressure gets too low.
I have treated hypertension. I started beet juice, walk everyday and squeeze a stress ball (didn’t know about that one) . BP has gone from 145/95 to 103/71. Now so low I get dizzy
Wow dizzy what to do

@@brianedwardsu7404 found out it was vitamin D deficiency. Also the bp was correlated to atlas bone correction and TMJ treatment. Chiropractor is a lifesaver
Hi to add to your lists are recommend anyone with high blood pressure to do breathing exercise and this will low your blood pressure immediately
I’ve never heard of squeezing something is ethically before. I know beets are good for you but didn’t know about the nitric oxide benefit. I’ve always drank hibiscus tea for the blood pressure and my husband takes l’arginine formula for the nitric oxide benefits. I remember hating beets as a kid and have never tried them as an adult. I am going to give them a try. I’ve always exercised, BP is 110/65 with no meds.
Research Niacin it’s a cheap supplement and it’s great for blood flow(to decrease HBP and it’s great for blood flow to the manly region)…
MANY doctors are now telling patients about it and actually subscribing it(if you can take the Lil hot flush go with that version it’s the best if not get the flush-free formula it’ll take a lil longer for results)……
I forgot about hibiscus tea… That has worked well for me also! I haven't fixed any in a while because of the time it takes and the commitment to making a very large batch because I make it out of Roselle, then I add all the good stuff as if I was making Sorrel: cinnamon stick, cloves, a Bayleaf and star anise.
Now I am taking French white OPC extract by Terry naturally as well as some Avena sativa/oatstraw. I also have been taking Curamed contains high amounts of curcuminoids and it's also by Terry naturally
Thank you just save my life I always neglected beetroot juice without knowing is the perfect to lower high blood pressure
The moment I go to any doctor..immediately my BP goes thru the roof. I always get sick and anxious even if I know I'm just there for a simple visit or dental cleaning. I can't help it

Well this is good news! I am a 77 year old woman and have normally low to normal blood pressure , 120/70 on any given day like even at the dentist's, EXCEPT when I am at the doctor's office. Immediately after I walk in, step on then off the scale the nurse slaps the cuff on. The last time I was there I was told I might have hypertension. I am so sure I don't, that I am going to try at least one of these tips at my next doctor's appointment and see what happens. Thank you so much.
White coat hypertension. I had a coworker that had an extreme case like this. We would take her blood pressure a couple of times a day for an entire week prior to her doctor visit. Her BP numbers looked good until they spiked up during her doctor visit. They would return to normal when she returned to the office, or when I would see her the next day. She told me she could "feel" her BP going up on the way into the doctor's office.
It is normal that in the medical office they always find the pressure of the high people because it is convenient for them to prescribe drugs for life, they represent the economic interests of the big pharmacies and many some people know this and distrust the doctors and it is normal To raise the pressure while we are in the doctor's office, because we feel mistrust of them, or sometimes some doctors try to make their patients sick by suggesting and manipulating them. The drug business is a great medical corruption.
The bp machine readings are always high for me.
Reini, what Glenn said is correct. People feel stressed out in certain situations and the doctors office is definitely one.
This is very helpful information. Thank you so much! I have been doing three out of the four you mentioned. I take beet root tablets, I walk every day and I take magnesium.
Interesting ideas, worth a try. Not going to do any harm even if not effective.
Im 58 years old i have work out for over 40 years and can't enthusias enough that working out lifting weights, riding bicycles, kettlebell bells, bodyweight exercise, which now it's bodyweight, jogging for me what i do....never ever had high blood pressure and it runs in my family...just move, do something your metabolism is slow because you have been inactive for a long time so you can't just say hey, I have a slow metabolism....of course you do after sitting on your butt for 10, 15, 20, years...walk, hike, you can make time for it...put your cell phone down and start believe me your energy, mood, and just plain feel better will start immediately.....i work with people who are under 40 and can't walk up 10 flights of steps because all they do is stay on their cell phones.....and they all have health issues... especially obesity..
Well done! Got one for PSA? Stress is one of the items that raises it.
No video on that one.
Find the reading high, just ignore it, fret, it will get worse. Get out walk or get some effort used to move the pressure. Work or just do some exertions. It works.
Truly agree when you panic it goes high
I've already been using beet juice and walking. Beet juice works most of the time for me and I need to walk consistently daily. First time hearing about the isometric squeezing. Thanks
Grounding/Earthing aka Barefoot walking in grass, dirt,sand, rock even untreated wet concrete. Also sleep grounded w Mattress Cover- 128 days today. 75 yrs Many health & emotional benefits.
It's a great video about lowering your blood pressure but for some people who can't walk for one reason have a stationary bicycle in your house or apartment or use your regular bicycle and put it on a platform where you could just pedal it without moving it you get great exercise no pollution to breed and also you're in one safe place so try it you'll see I give this video a five star

Thanks for watching and subbing! Welcome to the family!
These are awesome tips. Thank you very much.
Right on,I take a walk while using a grip exerciser.....it lowers your BP, strengthens your hands and takes your mind off of it.
Very true about walking, I just started and noticed a big change, for the good, in my bp
That's great! Thanks for watching and subbing!
I have bad side effects from standard prescribed medications. I will give these a try and get back to you.
Beet tablets were the beginning of my slide down. Exercise did nothing by itself. I still walk though! I noticed that when I went swimming one day, I felt so good working on my arms, that I had the sense that strengthening my arms also contributes to lower bp. Garlic is helping also along with breathing exercises, and some supplements. And of course sleep and hydration, and good food. I have a little calcification and plaque , so I have to work a little harder at it
Go get it! You can improve your health!

2. Did a 30-minute workout about 2hrs before the appt.
3. Drank water all day, no coffee
4. Took Beet Root capsules with water before the workout
5. Took a warm shower and did a 15-min cool down right before the appt.
My doctor and his assistant were high fiving me on my way out the door.
hey thats some really good information and w mans for dropping 30 points, also i just wanted to ask what was your blood pressure before hand,
i am 15 m and 64 kg, i have been exercising alot recently as i was told i have hypertension, 140/80 but this was about 2 weeks ago since my checkup, i also am not obese, i think my eating habits really got the best of me tho, as i am skinny and tryna gain weight,
Instead of ice cream. Put cocoa powder with cinnamon in a container. Buy yogurt, that has low sugar. Buy beet powder that has low sugar. Ginger powder. Add to yogurt with low sugar, then stir. Add frozen blue berries to yogurt then stir, better than ice cream.
Gunna give it a try, thanks - Question/opinion > what are your thoughts on BP machines ?
Beet Juice does not taste as bad as it sounds. It's much, much worse! Thankfully, you gave us 2 more alternatives.
Blood pressure medication has never lowered my rate. Drs hate this because they offer no alternatives. Most of these I have tried but have short term affects. Been on beet juice for only two weeks now, and if you evacuate your bowels quickly, it looks like blood in your stool, so don’t freak out. Staying away from negative, agitated people does a world of good, because I haven’t found an empathic shield as of yet. Sad, but there are a lot of angry people out in the world right now. My grandmother had H/B and had a stroke where she bled through her eyes ears and nose to let off the pressure. After a half an hour she got up off the floor cleaned herself up and went back to cleaning the house. But that’s women from the old country. She was 90 at the time. My mother would quip, she had H/B till she stopped taking the meds and it went down, now I’m the next contestant on, who’s got H/B.
It's well
How are you doing now
@M Ammaddenn How are you doing ?

THANKYOU neat concise and avoidance of a 10 minute lead in discussion before we get the facts
Just been put on Lisinpropil with Reactions..Thank goodness for a sensible alternative to a pharmaceutical 'pop a pill' to solve the issue
Juicing whole stalk of celery every day and drinking it every morning my grandma took it along with here BP pills and after a month she was able to get off her meds
Oh, I’m going to try your 3 suggestions, and I’ll get back to you
Beet juice and beets in general! I ate a bag of beet chips the other day and later on had checked my blood pressure and was shocked to see it down by 20 points. I wasn't sure why it was so much lower but after reviewing what I ate that day the only thing I did differently was eat that bag of chips.
I do like the 20 minute walk as a natural way to reduce BP.
I really like these suggestions. I don't want to go on meds so I'm scouting the internet for options. Thank you!
Glad you like them!
Extremely good ! Thanks very much indeed for sharing this information
Eating a pomegranate or drinking pomegranate juice will also lower your blood pressure. Spinach, garlic, dark chocolate can also help.
