Ok - so lets face up to the facts at the outset. Hypertension is not called the silent killer for nothing. If you have BP numbers that are too high then you risk early death from stroke or heart attack unless you do something about it.

But it's never that easy is it?

Modern day medicines nearly always work but always bring side effects with them - and sometimes these adverse effects can be so bad that the person simply gives up on their meds and decides to simply take their chances with the condition - feeling that the medication side effects are spoiling their quality of life.

Thousands of people every day search online for a way to lower blood pressure naturally. Supplements can certainly help - and a google search will bring up thousands of suggestions - but how do you get started if you want to take a more natural approach to things?

These are my simple tips  - follow two of them and you'll see a difference. Follow them all and you'll be well on your way to better health.

1. Walk for a total of thirty minutes each day.
   It doesn't need to be all at one time - two fifteen minute walks will be just fine
2. Take three "salt free days" each week.
   It's not easy but you can do it if you focus on checking packaging and aim for natural foods - I go for fresh fruit, fruit smoothies, raw veg with dips and yogurt.
3. Lose 5% of your body weight.
   That's seven pounds if you weigh 140 pounds - twenty if you weigh two hundred and so on.
4. Learn to relax more using a breathing technique
   Yoga can help with this - so can self hypnosis CD's or MP3 files. You can also buy breathing systems that teach you to relax using biofeedback.
5. Take a blood pressure supplement every day.
   I recommend ALISTROL - click the link in the box below for more information about it.

I think these are all more or less equally important but in my own case it was when I added the Alistrol supplement to my daily routine that I saw the biggest difference.
