The Best Natural Cures for High Blood Pressure

High blood pressure, also known as the silent killer, is one of the most prevalent conditions today, especially in America. However, not only is high blood pressure a dangerous condition in itself, the medication and drugs prescribed for it are also dangerous because of the high costs and the side effects. As such, it's become almost necessary to look at the natural world to find cures for high blood pressure. Remarkably, not only are natural cures and remedies for high blood pressure safe and don't have any side effects, but are also far more effective than prescription medication and drugs.

High blood pressure is classified as a systolic pressure of more than 140 and the diastolic pressure of more than 90. It's interesting to note that about 4 years ago, high blood pressure was classified as 160/95. The lowering of the standard has little to with health risks, and a lot more to do with how much money goes into the FDA, and the entire pharmaceutical industry. This is part of the reason that many of the natural cures for high blood pressure are not publicized. However, without much further ado, here are the best natural cures for high blood pressure:

Apple Cider Vinegar - This is a miracle cure for high blood pressure patients. Apple Cider Vinegar acts very fast, and you will start seeing a difference in your blood pressure within a week with it. You do not need any other medication for high blood pressure with apple cider vinegar.

Dosage - Take one full tablespoon 3 times a day for the best results.

Preparation - Nothing special. If it's too strong for you, you can mix it with a glass of water.

Recommendation - Buy an unpasteurized apple cider vinegar brand. A good one I know of is the Braggs organic Apple Cider Vinegar.

Downsides - None as such. You might want to add in a bit of Sodium Bi-Carbonate to help provide the extra carbonates that your body will need due to the acidic nature of Apple Cider Vinegar.

This is easily one of the best natural cures for high blood pressure.

Garlic - Another great natural treatment for high blood pressure. Regular use of garlic has been shown to reduce the blood pressure by 10-15%. That's about 20 points for many people with high blood pressure.

Dosage - You can take Garlic in the clove form, in the powdered form, in minced form, or even as paste. There is no fixed dosage (as long as you don't go overboard). There are no side-effects of garlic, so you don't have to worry about the excess of it, unless you're pregnant.

Preparation - You can add it to food, but the best is probably eating it in the form of a clove.

Recommendation - Eat a fresh clove of garlic to reduce your high blood pressure. It seems to work better raw than in food or in powdered form or paste.

Downsides - None, except it can cause bad breath.

This is a great cure for high blood pressure because it is easy to use and can be added to food and stuff. (and it adds taste to it as well).

Cayenne Pepper - This is another nice and cheap way to lower your blood pressure quickly and effectively. This is probably the fastest way to combat high blood pressure, and the results are really good. Giving someone a cayenne pepper tea is the best thing you can do after they've had a heart attack, even minutes after the heart failure. This is something that even some doctors recommend.

Dosage - Mix two tablespoons of honey with two teaspoons of cayenne pepper and boil them with a glass of water. Drink when it is warm. Not only will this bring great relief to your high blood pressure, but it also tastes good!

Recommendation - Use the organic cayenne pepper for better results with natural honey.

Downsides - It will take a couple of times before you will be able to find the perfect combination of cayenne pepper, honey, and water that tastes good to you.

There you have it - the three best natural cures that are cheap, super-effective, and have no side effects. Please do confirm with your doctor before using these, especially if you are pregnant or suffer from some other disorders as well. These have been known to be extremely beneficial in lowering high blood pressure and have many other advantages as well. Remember to exercise regularly and maintain a healthy lifestyle for consistently staying clear of high blood pressure.
