Lower Blood Pressure Naturally!

High blood pressure may seem like a minor inconvenience, but we shouldn’t downplay its dangers. It is directly or indirectly responsible for about 35,000 deaths in North America every year. About four million Canadians suffer from high blood pressure at varying degrees. The problem with high blood pressure, or hypertension, is that major warning signs may not appear until the disorder is advanced.

Physicians use a device called a sphygmomanometer to determine whether the blood pressure is high, low or normal. Two numbers are superimposed with the highest on top-120/80. The larger number gives the pressure when the heart beats, the systolic pressure; the smaller number gives the pressure when the heart is at rest, the diastolic pressure. The average blood pressure range is about 120/80 for men and is slightly lower for women.

Early visible signs of hypertension include dizziness, fatigue, headaches, insomnia and nervousness. Frequent temporary increases in blood pressure may also be an indicator. Later symptoms can include myocardial infarction, senility, brain haemorrhage and paralysis. If none of these visible signs is present, the only way to find out if you have high blood pressure is to have it monitored regularly.

An increase in the thickness of blood is one of the many reasons for high blood pressure. It is also caused by:

· An increase in peripheral resistance–the blood vessels are narrower.

· A decrease in blood vessel elasticity–they’re not as flexible as they should be.

· A vasoconstriction (narrowing of the arteries) generally caused by plaque on the artery wall.

· Genetic predisposition/heredity.

Many of these factors are controllable with supplementation and lifestyle. It’s best to take preventative steps right now.

Treating High Blood Pressure

Drink one and a half to two litres of pure water daily, more if you can. Increased hydration will help thin the blood. It’s fascinating that conventional physicians still recommend diuretics for patients with hypertension, a measure which will reduce the amount of water in the body and make the blood even thicker!

Adopt a diet that is high in plant-based foods. Legumes, fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and whole grains will supply abundant amounts of roughage and protective phytonutrients, many of which are involved in controlling cholesterol or dilating arteries. Should animal-based foods be consumed, these should be low in fat and organically/humanely raised whenever possible. Eggs are also a good source of both proteins and lecithin’s.

It is important to consume one or two tablespoons of cold-pressed vegetable oils daily. Ideally, these should give you both the omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, as well as oleic acid. Flax seed oil is an excellent choice and there are now oil blends that provide a combination of these good fats. Of course, avoid fried, saturated and hydrogenated fats as much as possible.

If you want to spread something on your food, blend one part butter with one part cold-pressed oil, such as olive or flax seed oil. This mixture will stay soft, even in the fridge. Do not heat this butter/oil blend and keep it refrigerated.

Certain substances can also have a negative effect on blood pressure. These include refined sugar, alcohol, caffeine and refined salt (regular table salt). Use Celtic salt or coarse sea salt instead.  Finally incorporating Alistrol into your diet will significantly lower your hypertension and also provide health benefits to your heart and arteries.  For more information, please visit www.ALISTROL.com today!!!

Supporting Heart Health

Several herbs are useful in treating hypertension. Garlic promotes positive vascular changes and blood lipid (fat) levels. It also reduces blood pressure so it should be part of the daily diet, either raw, fresh or in a good quality supplement like Alistrol.

Ginkgo biloba counteracts one cause of hypertension: the narrowing of blood vessels. It works by dilating or opening up the blood vessels and improving blood flow.

Hawthorn is one of the most common herbs used for high blood pressure. Even though its action on blood pressure is probably indirect, traditional use and clinical studies have demonstrated that hawthorn does, in fact, lead to lower blood pressure.

Magnesium plays an important role in dilating blood vessels. In one Japanese study, magnesium intake was singled out as the most important dietary factor for controlling blood pressure. Taking 600 milligrams of magnesium daily will have a favourable effect on hypertension.

Potassium supplementation has been shown to help patients with hypertension, especially if they are on diuretic medication. Take 200-300 milligrams daily.

I have recommended vitamin E with garlic to my hypersensitive patients and produced excellent results. The rationale is simple: since more viscous blood doesn’t flow well, it can increase blood pressure. And since most people with hypertension have somewhat "thicker" blood, vitamin E’s blood-thinning effect should help. Start with 100--200 international units (IU) daily for two or three weeks. Then increase to 400 IU daily. Some people may need more as recommended by their health professional.

Exercise also helps reduce blood pressure by improving the heart’s ability to pump blood and reducing blood lipids. Exercise should be undertaken gradually, taking your present level of health into consideration. Remember that over 80 per cent of patients can be cured of high blood pressure by changing diet and lifestyle. It is important to be proactive and take control of your health.  Visit www.ALISTROL.com to gain further insight and information about the natural way to deal with hypertension.

Salt: Sea:Celtic Grey Fine Grind 1 lb: C $10.87 Sun dried and unrefined, free of any chemical additives, with a gourmet, non-bitter salt taste. The salt normally used in most homes and restaurants (refined table salt) is very different from unrefined Sea Salt. Table salts are mined from the earth with bulldozers and heavy machinery, and then iodized, bleached, and diluted with anti-caking agents. Chemicals are added to refined salt in the processing and all the beneficial minerals and trace elements that are found in natural sea salt are removed. So you lose out both ways! In the industrial refining process, as many as 82 trace minerals and essential macro nutrients are forcibly removed, leaving only a single compound made of sodium and chlorine. Natural salts that come from pristine clean salt farms very definitely make food more tasty, and these salts make food more digestible, and may often, even measurably, help improve health. Celtic Sea Salt is a ''moist'' unrefined sea salt usually found on the coastal areas of France. It’s light grey, almost light purple color comes from the clay found in the salt flats. The salt is collected by hand using traditional Celtic methods. Grey Salt has gained great fame in the mainstream culinary world in the last few years and is considered by many to be the best quality salt available. This natural products is obtained from traditional organic salt farmers, under the highest quality controls. The method used for gathering them follows a time-honored 2,000 year-old Celtic culture and tradition, supported and authenticated by modern Quality and Purity control establishments. Trace elements, found in minute quantities in sea water and therefore in natural unrefined sea salt, all work together to assure and maintain proper function of the body's systems. If any one of them is left out -or even just diminished- a link will be missing, and the whole organism will suffer as a result. Natural gray sea salt provides renewed energy, and at the same time gives higher resistance to infections and bacterial diseases. Natural Celtic Sea Salt, is the gentlest alkaline- forming substance known. Furthermore, cereal grains, beans, roots or vegetables pickled or aged with salt (pickles, sauerkraut, or naturally fermented, starter-type bread), all become even better healing foods when prepared with unrefined natural salt. The absence of salt in the daily diet greatly hampers absorption of the nutrition contained in grains and vegetables and leaves them unable to function as natural healing agents. Natural sea salt is a living food, with its ionic and electrolytic properties profoundly anchored in its grounding crystals. Natural light gray salt is the most basic condiment as well as a staple food: it possesses the power to rejuvenate the body's biosystems, therefore, a powerful remedy for countless health problems. No pill supplementation can equal the wealth of minerals that natural sea salt supplies, regardless of how rich or precisely that suppl
