Thread Name: High blood-pressure
Subject: RE: High blood-pressure
I take garlic supplements and hawthorn which controls mine instead of the beta blockers, etc. which I took for a number of years. I also walk a lot. My numbers without medication were either high normal or the lower range of high blood pressure, depending on how you look at it. A friend finds that Co-enzyme Q-10 works to keep her blood pressure under control. The downside to herbal remedies is that your prescription insurance generally doesn't cover it and it's not necessarily any cheaper than prescription medications.
