eating for high blood pressure

m taking meds for my high blood pressure. Seems to be working really well every check since it has been 120/70 .

can drinking grape fruit juice effect a person taking high blood pressure medication

I just got my weekly checkup and there saying i have high blood pressure. What can i do to change that and make it normal?

They help curve my nausea too. Ive never had high blood pressure from too much salt however in my past pregnancies(like in last trimester)if i ate them too often my feet would swell up pretty good. At this point its hard for me to ignore cravings. Sometimes your body craves what you need but just try to eat whatever it is in moderation.

I would check again and see what your blood pressure is. Sometimes if you take your blood pressure right after you lift heavy weights, for example, it can be higher than usual. If it stays high after a couple of times checking it, you should see a doctor. Good luck.

I see the heading to your post is high blood pressure. Have your husband stop by the Dr and ask to have his blood pressure taken.

I experience High pulse rate after eating and also become very anxious. I have high blood pressure which is controlled by medication. Does anyone else have this disorder and what causes it?

All the ideas mammo gave you on exercise, low salt diet and more is what helped me get off medications and get my BP back on track. It isnt good to walk around with uncontrolled blood pressure so for sure get in as soon as you can and get things sorted around with your doctor.

hello, i go to publix every day and check my blood pressure on their vita star blood pressure machine. my first reading is always high like 145/70. but then i take my second and its 130/70. somtimes i come in and its 127/70 or 130/56. i though it was broken so i had some of my friends try it out and their first reading is always high. i dont have inssurance so i cant see a doc. and i have absolutely no money to buy a blood pressure machine for my self. does anyone know whats wrong with me??

I am tracking my own blood pressure three times a day and I watch my blood pressure spike about 2-3 hours after taking the Synthroid and go to normal/low by late in the day. I am going off it slowly because going off it too quickly can cause some serious issues with your heart.

The answer is it depends upon the etiology of the high blood pressure There are several different reasons for high blood pressure. For example, eighteen percent of people with high blood pressure can reduce the pressure by taking simple calcium supplements. That study was funded by a company manufacturing calcium-channel blockers, for whom I worked briefly two decades ago.

re right, diet and exercise could work, it may not be enough to lower my blood pressure. They first started to notice my high blood pressure six months into hep c tx, and it has stayed that way ever since. I haven't thought much about it until now.

Anyone else dealing with high blood pressure? I have a machine at home my cardiologist gave me and I use it 3x a day. My last BP reading was really high. I feel hot and basically just terrible.

My doctor will be doing tests in a few weeks, but I have had some fairly high glucose levels lately. I also have a history of high blood pressure although that has been better most of the time lately. Tonight all of a sudden I started having a terrible headache and nausea. My glucose level was somewhat high. So either this was due to the glucose levels or due to high blood pressure. Whatever it is, I am so tired of being sick and tired all of the time.

The second number in the blood pressure reading is always worse to be high. The first number is the pressure when the heart beats and forces blood out of the ventricles. The second number is the reading when your heart is resting in between beats. It is always worse to have the pressure higher on your heart when it is relaxing for a half of a second. Anyways, I would not worry to much about it! Keep monitor it for awhile, and get you one of those digital home blood pressure monitors.

I have a high blood pressure and I have been to both an endocrinologist and an otorhinolaryngologist several times within this month. What is the most likely reason I have the high blood pressure? Hashimoto disease the endocrinologist said or my nasal septum's fault which is not straight and my otorhinolaryngologist said? I have done a load of test if you need any further details.

The benefits of BP meds could outweigh any risks of high blood pressure. I know that I will have to take BP meds when im pregnant. You should really consult your physician to see if this applies in your case. Aldomet is a BP med that is considered safe in pregnancy. I was on BP meds when I miscarried but had nothing to do with it. BP can be a serious problem in pregnancy and should not be ignored.

Alright, so I have another question about high blood pressure and heart disease. I just turned 18 about a couple of months ago and found that my blood pressure was a bit high. I've posted before my BP was 140/80, than checked it a couple of times and it was around 138/72 and 142/64. I've tried a lot of things, eating less, working out, and even cutting on the salt a bit, but it only seems as if my blood pressure is getting dramatically higher.

I was told to eat more salt and red meat for my first pregnancy when I had low blood pressure. This time my blood pressure is even lower making me pass out if I stand up for too long. Does anyone know of any other remedies for this? I still have morning sickness so I can't handle eating too much meat.

Then about 6 months ago when i was at the Dr. I had high blood pressure (138/88). My Dr. told me to watch my sodium and i had blood work taken. The blood work came back normal and I have been really watching my sodium. It hasn't gone down. What could be the cause? My Dr. asks if i have shortness of breath and I don't, but I just feel that something is wrong. My father had heart problems/stroke but never had high BP. Am I just being paranoid?

My doctor said i have high blood pressure what are the risks and what can i do to help im 33 weeks

Drink water!

Dear experts, I am a 23-year-old college student, and I found I got high blood pressure. Several years before my parents found my blood pressure is a little high when I was almost 17, but not too high and there was no symptoms so I did not mind it. Yesterday I went to hospital and the doctor told me that my systolic pressure is 190 and I was scared. Now let me tell you my body situation. I am 178 cm tall and weight 108 kg.

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this question or not but I will give it a shot. My husband has high blood pressure and he is also a truck driver. In order to pass his DOT physical TOMORROW he has to get his blood pressure down. Does anyone know of anything that he can do before his appointment to help maybe get his pressure under where it is suppose to be? He is running about 149/93 and it has to be under 142/90 or something along those lines.....any suggestions would be great.

With hepatitis C, stress, high blood pressure and overweight you are now like anyone else who has a diet of cheeseburgers and french toast.
