Effective Natural Remedies for High Blood Pressure Management

I have high blood pressure and have been taking medication for years, but doesn't really seem to work and I was at a point 3 weeks ago where my blood pressure was high (195/110, causing me dizziness, headaches, etc. My daughter was worried, so she went on the computer to research remedies for HBP and came across this website. She wrote down the remedies that can possibly bring my blood pressure down and looked in our refridgerator and the first thing she found was the Apple Cider Vinegar and told me to take a shot of it and I did. Immediately I felt a little difference, so to make a long story short, I have been taking a shot of the Apple Cider Vinegar ever since. I take it first thing in the morning, Mid Day and at night and it has worked miracles because my blood pressure went down to 130/87. and I have NEVER had my blood pressure this low for YEARS. Thanks to all who have provided feedback, along with the person who has created this website. It has provided more than enough information for me. Thank again, John.

Hi, Ted:
This may sound strange, I started using acv mixed with v8 low sodium and tabasco sauce and a 12oz can of beer. Not the healthiest formula. My blood pressure even after madication used to be 145/92.i am aregular 6 to 8 beer drinker. After a week ichecked my bp, it was down to 128/80 range.after about 3 wks it in the 117/75 range.also my heart rate used to 88-92,its down to 68-73. Needless to say I am amazed.
not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but I am very curious as to how this has happened? Any feedback would greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Asmai.

After two months of ACV twice a day with honey, I had no loss of any weight but with new blood work my glucose went up, maybe because of honey? However, my blood pressure went down from 130/75 to 122/72. I have stopped taking ACV with honey because of elevated glucose 119. I am 65. Bye and good luck to the rest.

To all, I have use ACV for several months now and have been able to go off all blood pressure medication. I started to use ACV for Gerd (Acid reflex) blood pressure was 150/90 down to 112/60 in two months. Started to use baking soda in ACV and started to have several joint and leg pain. Stopped baking soda, leg pain is better. Forget baking soda - it will cause joint pain in some people so be very careful of it.

ACV will also cause anxiety in some people if used to often. Changes the PH of the body. I have to be careful not to do over one to two teaspoons at a time. Has anyone taken the tablets and do they work ? I also am a R.N. for 22 years and so sick of medication that D.R. put out like candy always looking for alter cures for problem. Most medication is short time cure to more medication.

I actually found this site yesterday. I just found out I have high BP and decided to take the advice and try the ACV. I have used it for acid reflux in the past and knew it worked for that...so why not. I was amazed!!! I also suffer from anxiety. I took it yesterday after reading the site and had a physical today. You would not believe the results. First, about five minutes after taking it my anxiety was gone and when they took my BP it was sytolic was down twenty point and distolic was down ten..!!!! Can you believe it..if not try it.

I have been on a regiment of ACV for my high blood pressure over the past seven days. My bp plummeted from 188/110 to now being 132/77 thru those 7 days via serious brisk walking (1/2 hour morning, half hour late afternnon everyday), changing to non-fat diet, and that good old ACV. My dosage is one tablespoon of ACV and 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water, 3 times a day. Somehow I am pretty confident I can achieve the 120/80 level or lower within the next few weeks. For those out there with high bp ( or high cholestrol, or high sugar), do not hesitate to try ACV!

Since the use of apple vinegar my bloodpressure went down to 112/80 and I have been taken of the bloodpressure medication.

Hi, I read about the great results people have been getting from ACV and had heard about its beneficial effects in books, etc. over the years but never really stuck with it. Well I've had high blood pressure for the last 10 years or so and its been getting progressively worse. I've been put on a wide variety of pills by my physicians whom I've come to believe are concerned and try to help (maybe), but nothing they have done has been of any real benefit to my health. Nothing. This past December I went to the emergency room because my pressure was reading 210/160. I was in excuriating pain, my head, neck, back, and eyes all felt as if they were put into a vice or hit with a sledge hammer. No exaggeration. The pain was unbearable. I left the emergency after five and a half hours without being seen by anyone other than the intake nurse and that's when I decided to take my health into my own hands. I began a regime of two tablespoons of ACV in water 2-3 times a day. After two weeks I was tempted to give up because I didn't see any results but I read a comment that said results sometimes take time and to keep going so I did and after my third week there was a breakthrough. My pressure had come down and I haven't taken any medication since December. I've modified my protocol as I've been going along and this is currently how I take my remedy.

3 tablespoons ACV
1 teaspoon cinnamon
half teaspoon cayanne pepper
in a half glass of water

The RESULTS:
No more headaches
No more high blood pressure (it may rise occassionally-then I take an additional dosage of ACV and it goes right down)
No more pains in my joints
No more sinus problems

ACV may not be a miracle cure but it is second only to the grape cure (a regime of eating only grapes) which is extremely hard to follow for any length of time. I posted this really because the tendency is for websites to really discount the "folk" remedies and alternative medicine, because its not scientific or FDA approved. I do feel that rational intelligent people can report accurate results of treatments that we've tried. We don't need a degree or title or government position to state a truth. I'm insulted that we are bombarded on these expert medical sites with don't try this or that without first consulting your doctor. Or stating the these "cures" can possible be harmful! Any so called side effect (if there are any) are far less harmful to your body than any drug on the market. I could go on put I'll just stop at that. Keep posting what works for you by sharing your results we can learn and try to educate each other to break through this maze of medical jargon that is used to obscure facts and present half truths.

Hello I want to say that apple cider vinegar really works for high blood pressure. I went to the doctor and my blood pressure was 150/110 and after taking 2 tbps of apple cider Vinegar 3 times a day for about 3 weeks on and off my pressure has gone down to 132/90. It works give it a try!

I've got to tell you, I was a HUGE skeptic about home remedies... but taking ACV for high blood pressure has been absolutely amazing!!

I found your site a little over a week ago. My blood pressure had been high for quite sometime...in the 160/95 range...I kept telling myself I could "live" with that. But about a month ago, it started spiking to 180/100 and 185/105...and that scared me...to say the least!! I have always worked out...I'm not terribly over weight...maybe 20 lbs...and I eat fairly good. But I have a somewhat stressful job and I'm definitely a "Type-A" personality...so when it spiked I knew I had to do something.

I started using ACV 6 days ago...and today, when I came home from the office for lunch, my bp was 141/83!! I am amazed and so grateful!! I started noticing a difference about two days after I started taking it.

While it is nasty tasting and smelling...I have found that taking 2 tablespoons, three times a day worked great for me. I measure 2 tablespoons into a glass... about one tablespoon of honey... and down she goes. I chase it with a protein shake!!

I praise God I found this site. Isn't it amazing how God's gifts always seem to work best!!

I started taking ACV to lower my blood pressure. Not only did it lower my pressure (My doctor was shocked at how low it went) It also cured my anxiety and a wart on my hand that i had for over a year. I tried everythin except going to the doctor to have it froze off. ACV made me a New person. Everyone at work said that i have more patience and am more relaxed. It is the Greatest thing since the invention of the wheel. I put a teaspoon full in a glass of water.

I'm reporting back after about 45 days on 2 teaspoons ACV, honey and water 3x a day...and it's hard to believe. My BP has been around 162 and as high as 190/92. a walking stroke. Now it's 125/82 and this morning it was 117/79! I do take a mild diuretic..I am still overweight with little exercise due to spine and leg pain from an injury. But this has given me some hope to make more changes. Please everybody report back here--so others can benefit. I am amazed.

I like it straight up - no water. ACV daily knocked down my blood pressure and I lost 14 pounds in the process.

I live in New York state and had to fight high-blood pressure for many years. I am 54 and was taking all kinds of meds for hbp and related problems. I started to take the ACV in water And hated it. I started to use it on salads and realized how much I liked it straight up So (I don't recommend this to everyone) now I just take a swig everday and I have to say "I love it" I also want to let you know that my BP is better and I feel like a new person. I also lost 14 pounds Over the last couple of weeks (no drastic changes to lifestyle just watching a little more of what I Eat and taking the ACV daily).

My blood pressure hit 140/90 and i was told to be careful. Within two weeks of taking ACV my pressure has dropped to 110/80. I mixed ACV with honey or Maple Syrup and Soda Bicarbonate, twice or thrice a day I am yet to take results for cholesterol check, since i have been on cholesterol Zocor for more than one year. i have since stopped taking Zocor. As a matter of fact, I do not intend taking any medicine as long as I have ACV. Only in Emergency cases like accidents, will make me visit the hospital.
