As high blood pressure or hypertension is becoming more prevalent, it becomes increasingly important to know how to lower high blood pressure naturally. According to the American Heart Association, about 85 million people in the U.S. alone have hypertension. Overeating, smoking, alcohol consumption, stress, and high mental pressure can lead to hypertension.

Hence, making the necessary lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, limiting alcohol consumption, stress management, and following a proper diet and medication are important. Here, we share certain natural and safe home remedies that can help keep your blood pressure levels in check. Read on to know more.

What Is High Blood Pressure?

Medically termed as hypertension, high blood pressure occurs when your blood exerts excess force on the walls of the arteries it is traveling through.

It is important you keep your blood pressure under control to prevent complications like stroke, kidney disease, vision loss, and heart failure.

A study shows that the prevalence of hypertension in the USA was 49.64% in 2017-2018, corresponding to 115 million people. Among these patients, 58.53% were black, 54.46% were men, and 61.03% were older and obese adults. Only 39.64% of them were on medications and took measures to keep their hypertension under control.

There are mainly two types of hypertension.

Types Of Hypertension

  • Essential Or Primary Hypertension – The exact cause of this type of hypertension is unknown. It is diagnosed when your blood pressure continues to be high even after regular checkups with a doctor, with no cause identified.
  • Secondary Hypertension – When your hypertension is caused either by an abnormality in your arteries or an obstruction in your airways while sleeping, you may have secondary hypertension. This can also be caused by hormonal abnormalities, diseases of the thyroid, etc.

Blood pressure is recorded based on two figures. The first is the systolic blood pressure that is exerted while the heart is beating. The second is the diastolic blood pressure that is exerted when your heart is resting in between the beats.

Hypertension is classified into a few more types. They are:

  • Isolated Systolic Hypertension – Normal blood pressure is usually considered less than 120/80. In people affected by isolated systolic hypertension, the systolic pressure rises above 140, whereas the diastolic pressure (lower number) remains in the normal range (below 90). Isolated systolic hypertension is common in older individuals above 65 years of age. The most common cause of this type of hypertension is the loss of arterial elasticity.
  • Malignant Hypertension – This is a very rare type of hypertension and affects only about 1% of hypertensive individuals. This type is often seen more in young adults, men of African-American descent, and in women with pregnancy toxemiai  XA potentially serious pregnancy complication that occurs due to high blood pressure levels after 20 weeks of pregnancy. . Malignant hypertension happens when your blood pressure rises suddenly and extremely quickly. It is a medical emergency that requires immediate medical intervention.
  • Resistant Hypertension – If three or more antihypertensive medications prescribed by your doctor haven’t worked for you, you most probably have resistant hypertension. About 20-30% of hypertensive individuals suffer from this type – which is mostly associated with a genetic component.

Some types of hypertension occur in bouts – they happen for a while and then subside on their own. These are known as white coat hypertension and labile hypertension.

The term “labile” is used to define blood pressure that changes over time, whereas “white coat hypertension” is used to refer to blood pressure that measures high at a clinic but is normal at the individual’s home.

Now that you have a fair idea about what causes hypertension, let us look at the causes.

Causes Of And Risk Factors For Hypertension

Your heart pumps blood across your body. This pumping action creates pressure within your arteries, which is normal. But for individuals with high blood pressure, this pressure means the arterial walls are constantly on the receiving end.

While the exact cause for this increase in pressure is yet to be identified, some factors could be responsible. They are:

  • Age – Older individuals are at a higher risk of developing hypertension.
  • Family history – Those who have had direct family members or relatives with a history of hypertension are at a higher risk of developing the condition themselves.
  • Temperature – Blood pressure tends to increase in colder climates (due to the narrowing of the arteries) and decrease in warmer climates.
  • Ethnic background – Those of African or South Asian descent are at a higher risk of developing hypertension.
  • Obesity – Obese people are more likely to develop high blood pressure.
  • Gender – Generally, high blood pressure is found to be more common in adult men than in adult women.
  • Sedentary lifestyle – A sedentary lifestyle with lack of exercise also puts you at a higher risk of developing high blood pressure.
  • Smoking
  • Drinking too much alcohol
  • A high intake of salt
  • A diet high in fat
  • Stress
  • Medical conditions like diabetes and psoriasis
  • Pregnancy

All these factors can increase hypertension risk, leading to the following symptoms.

Signs And Symptoms

Most individuals affected with hypertension don’t experience any major symptoms – which is why hypertension is often referred to as the “silent killer.”

The rest of them tend to experience symptoms when the blood pressure touches 180/110 mmHg (millimeter of mercury), which is considered a medical emergency (also called hypertensive crisis).

The symptoms that can occur at this point include:

  • Headache
  • Nausea and/or vomiting
  • Dizziness
  • Palpitationsi  XA sensation that the heart is missing heartbeats and racing that is caused due to stress, variation in breathing, or alcohol consumption.
  • Breathlessness
  • Double or blurry vision
  • Bleeding nose

If you have been experiencing such symptoms, consult a doctor immediately.

Children can also be affected by hypertension and may show symptoms like:

  • Fatigue and weakness
  • A headache
  • Blurry vision
  • Bleeding nose
  • Bell’s palsy, where controlling the facial muscles becomes difficult.

Affected newborns or babies show symptoms like:

  • Lethargyi  XA state of lacking energy, which can make even the simplest tasks more overwhelming and unmanageable.
  • Irritability
  • Seizuresi  XSudden, abnormal electrical activity of the brain that causes changes in the behavior and levels of consciousness.
  • Breathing difficulties
  • Faltering weight

Your doctor can help diagnose high blood pressure with the following tests.

Diagnosis

Your blood pressure is usually measured in two values – systolic pressure (exerted when your heart contracts) and diastolic pressure (exerted between every heartbeat).

The most common instrument used to measure your blood pressure is a sphygmomanometer. It has an inflatable cuff that can be wrapped around your upper arm. Inflating this cuff restricts blood flow, and the mechanical manometer helps measure the pressure.

Other tests that can also help diagnose high blood pressure are:

  • Urine and blood tests
  • Exercise stress test
  • Electrocardiogram or ECG test – Tests the electrical activity of the heart.
  • Echocardiogram – Uses ultrasound waves to detect the motion of the heart.

These tests can help detect the functioning of your heart whereas the sphygmomanometer detects your blood pressure. The unit often used to measure the blood pressure is mmHg (millimeter of mercury).

protip_icon Fun Fact
Samuel Siegfried Karl Ritter von Basch invented the first sphygmomanometer in 1881. However, its modern version was developed in 1905.

The readings from a sphygmomanometer can help in measuring your varying blood pressure values. This brings us to the blood pressure chart.

Blood Pressure Chart

You will know if your blood pressure values are normal or abnormally high from the following values:

  • 90/60 mmHg – Low blood pressure
  • More than 90/60 mmHg but less than 120/80 mmHg – Normal blood pressure
  • More than 120/80 mmHg but less than 140/90 mmHg – Your blood pressure is close to normal but a little higher than it should ideally be.
  • 140/90 mmHg or higher – High blood pressure

Hence, it can be concluded that:

  • If your systolic pressure is more than 140, you may have high blood pressure (irrespective of your diastolic pressure).
  • If your diastolic pressure is 90 or more, you may have high blood pressure (irrespective of your systolic pressure).
  • If your systolic pressure is 90 or less, your blood pressure is low (regardless of your diastolic pressure).
  • If your diastolic pressure is 60 or less, your blood pressure is low (regardless of your systolic pressure).

Once you are diagnosed with hypertension, you must take immediate measures to manage your blood pressure. Your doctor may prescribe certain medications like the ones mentioned below along with some lifestyle changes.

Treatment Methods

The most common drugs often prescribed to those suffering from high blood pressure are:

  • Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors
  • Calcium channel blockers
  • Thiazide diuretics
  • Beta-blockers
  • Renin inhibitors

Along with these medications, your doctor might also ask you to adopt a healthier lifestyle, which we will discuss later.

Medications can often cause side effects in individuals. And this is why alternate treatment methods are a better option sometimes, such as herbal supplements and home remedies. Here are some simple home remedies that can help in this regard.

Why This Works

Moderate green tea intake has a positive impact on lowering high blood pressure, thanks to green tea polyphenols that help your arteries relax (13).

Caution

Do not drink too much green tea as its caffeine content can raise your blood pressure.

protip_icon Trivia
The catechins in green tea are responsible for its cardioprotective effects. They regulate BP by reducing oxidative stress and through other mechanisms.

12. Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids for high blood pressure

You Will Need

250-500 mg omega-3 fatty acids

What You Have To Do

Consume 250-500 mg of omega-3 fatty acids daily.

You can either consume fatty fish, flax seeds, walnuts, and chia seeds or take additional supplements for it.

How Often You Should Do This

Do this on a daily basis.

Why This Works

Omega-3 fatty acids exhibit cardioprotective effects, which can be attributed to the presence of two long-chain essential fatty acids – docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Of the two, DHA helps in lowering the blood pressure and heart rate (14).

13. Herbs

Herbs for lowering blood pressure

You Will Need

  • 1 to 2 tablespoons of fresh herbs or 1 teaspoon of dried herbs like hawthorn, celery, or basil
  • A tea infuser
  • 1 cup of water

What You Have To Do

  1. Chop the fresh herbs or crush/grind the dried herbs.
  2. Place the herbs into a tea infuser.
  3. Boil some water and pour it over them.
  4. Let them steep for 5 to 10 minutes.
  5. Remove the infuser and enjoy your herbal tea.

How Often You Should Do This

Drink the herbal tea or consume the selected herb once daily.

Why This Works

These herbs contain flavonoids, phthalides, and eugenol that help relax blood vessels, reduce inflammation, and combat oxidative stress (15), (16), (17). This may help regulate blood pressure and reduce cardiovascular disease risk.

You can follow these remedies, but don’t depend on them alone. The same goes for prescription drugs. Hypertensive individuals must also follow a strict diet to treat their condition. This might also help them in weight loss.

Best Foods For Treating High Blood Pressure

What you eat and avoid has a huge impact on your blood pressure levels.

What To Eat

Foods that have a positive impact on treating high blood pressure are:

  • Green leafy vegetables high in potassium like spinach, kale, and romaine lettuce
  • Flavonoid-rich berries such as blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries
  • Beets
  • Skim milk and yogurt
  • Oatmeal
  • Bananas (for increasing potassium intake)
  • Fish like salmon and mackerel that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids
  • Dark chocolate

You must also restrict your consumption of certain foods.

What Not To Eat
  • Deli meat
  • Tomatoes
  • Sugary foods
  • Canned or packaged foods
  • Junk food
  • Excess alcohol
  • Excess caffeine

Making lifestyle changes, acupuncture, and massage therapy also helps in the long run. Here are some tips you can follow.

Prevention Tips

  • Exercise 30 to 60 minutes every day, for at least 5 days a week.
  • Manage your weight.

Elvie Lins, a photographer and blogger, shares how she was able to lower her blood pressure at home without having to depend on any pills: “I realize how my life was in danger when she [an expert] asked me if I wanted to take a pill to lower my blood pressure and that once I start, it will be forever (i).” Instead, she decided to cut salt from her diet and exercised daily to stay active. She continues, “I do have SEA SALT to taste but not often. I avoided other types of synthetic salts. Oftentimes, my food is only seasoned with lemon juice, natural herbs, and sea salt in a minimum portion.”

Frequently Asked Questions

When is your blood pressure difficult to control?

Your blood pressure can be difficult to control if you are suffering from resistant hypertension. If more than three antihypertensive medications fail to keep your blood pressure under control, you could be suffering from resistant hypertension. For other individuals, your blood pressure can be difficult to control if you are availing inadequate or inappropriate treatment.

Can high blood pressure cause nosebleeds?

Yes, high blood pressure can also result in nosebleeds. In fact, a bleeding nose can be one of the many symptoms that surface during a medical emergency associated with hypertension.

How long does it take to control your blood pressure?

By following the treatment plan provided to you and making a few lifestyle changes, you can control your blood pressure in about 1 to 3 months.

How does high blood pressure affect pregnancy?

If you develop high blood pressure or hypertension during pregnancy, your heart and kidneys are exposed to extra stress that can lead to serious medical complications like kidney diseases, heart diseases, and stroke.

When to see a doctor for hypertension treatment?

Seeking medical attention is highly recommended for treating hypertension. However, in some situations, it becomes even more important to call your doctor immediately. This includes:
• Your blood pressure remains high despite treatments
• If you develop symptoms like palpitations, nausea, nose bleeding, shortness of breath, dizziness, etc. that hint at a medical emergency.

Is walking good for individuals with high blood pressure?

Walking may be the key to better heart health for individuals with high blood pressure. According to a study, walking 10,000 steps or more every day, regardless of the amount or intensity of exercise one gets, can significantly drop blood pressure in hypertensive individuals (18). You can also practice deep breathing, meditation and mindfulness, and relaxation techniques to regulate your blood pressure levels.

Can drinking water lower blood pressure?

Yes, consistently hydrating is an effective way to help lower blood pressure (19).

Key Takeaways

  • Spiked blood pressure levels exert pressure on the arterial walls that may result in a stroke, heart attack, or kidney diseases.
  • The most prominent causes of hypertension are smoking, alcoholism, overeating, and stress.
  • A slight blood pressure increase usually occurs without evident symptoms. Patients experience headaches, dizziness, or nasal bleeding with elevated pressure levels.
  • Ginger tea, garlic, and colored vegetables in a daily diet can bring down blood pressure.
  • Essential oils diffusers reduce stress and help to keep a check on stress-related hypertension.
