BLOOD PRESSURE
Question: Can you recommend a herb to reduce constantly high
blood pressure 180/100 no other effects cholesterol ok blood pressure
Answer: The more well know herbs that are helpful for lowering blood pressure include:
Garlic: Get it in your daily diet, smell like garlic, fresh is best, pills would be second choice
Hawthorn: As a tincture or a tea, this one is food for the heart and circulation system.
Linden: As a tincture, would be used as a small component in an herb formula with Hawthorn for example:
Du Zhong (Eucommia Bark): Very effective Chinese herb, only best as a tea.
Fresh Oats: for high BP associated with nervousness
Dandelion Leaf: Excellent Diuretic herb, as effective a Lasix, lowers volume of water so lowers volume of blood in
body, so less pressure.
Motherwort: For BP associated with anxiety.
Olive leaf: used in combination with another herb such as Hawthorne
Mistletoe: useful in combination with Hawthorn, small amount.
We have a Linden-Hawthorn-Mistletoe tincture combination in our store which has been used by medicinal herb clients
to eliminate their use of BP pills completely.
