Blood pressure is defined as an amount of strength that pushes against the walls of arteries to get blood through the body. If this strength is too strong for too long, it will weaken arterial walls over time.
In America, 70 million people (or 1 of every 3) have high blood pressure. In Canada, it’s 1 in 6.
Hypertension increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, atherosclerosis, and kidney failure. Managing this condition is, therefore, critical not just for all-around health and feeling good, but to prevent life-threatening illness.
Medications increase the risk of cancer
According to studies, taking the most commonly prescribed medications – calcium channel blockers (Amlodipine, Verapamil, Diltiazem) – for an extended period puts you at risk of developing cancer 2 and a half times that of someone who doesn’t and the odds increase as you age.

In order to manage high blood pressure:
Reduce your salt intake: Reduced salt intake can delay or prevent the incidence of antihypertensive therapy, can promote blood pressure reduction, and may represent a simple cost-saving mediator to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Exercise: Exercise is a foundation therapy for the prevention, treatment, and control of hypertension.
Avoid foods that worsen hypertension, like alcohol, processed meats, ramen noodles, and anything with high sodium content.
Below is a recipe for hypertension tea that is delicious and will provide nutrients to reduce blood pressure.
