How to lower your high blood pressure?

Question

I just discovered that I have a high blood pressure (130/100) and I am only 24 years old. I lived a sedentary lifestyle before but now I am going to start to work on Monday. It is scaring the sh*t out of me thinking that I might be close to having a serious heart condition and die all of a sudden.

Also, lately I found that I'm always anxious and easily startled. Could this be the cause of my high blood pressure.

I want to live my life for 50 years more. What can I do.

Answer 1

try tai chi . Its perfect for a condition like yours. Search in the internet for info about tai chi. And join some place which teach tai chi or practice by yourself from the internet manuals itself.

Answer 2

when i started going to the gym and lost 30 lbs my blood pressure decreased significantly.  i was very scared as i was 25 yrs old and the doc said my bp was slightly high.

Answer 3

Eat garlic on your food daily and 1 tbs apple cider vinergar,it works.you may need Meds to lower it.

Answer 4

go see a doctor sweetie. good luck with everything :)

Answer 5

Exercise, try to eat more healthy foods, and try not to let stress get you down, though that can be very hard. Good Luck.

Answer 6

Start exercising, such as aerobics like swimming and walking.

Cut down on caffiene, like coffee or espresso.

Don't eat too much fast food or TV dinners, because these have a lot of salt in them.

You do not say if you are overweight, but if you are, then lose the excess pounds.

And finally, see a physician for regular checkups, in case you may need medication. But try to do the above first, before the meds.

Hope this helps.
