More and more people are seeking natural methods of treating their high blood pressure. There are some plants that are known to either lower or regulate blood pressure.
Cayenne
Hot peppers such as cayenne, serrano and habenero peppers reduce blood pressure by increasing blood circulation. Hot peppers also increase metabolism.
Garlic
Garlic is a plant that regulates blood pressure, meaning it will raise low blood pressure or lower high blood pressure.
Ginger
Ginger acts as a vasodilator, opening up the blood vessels so the blood flows more easily. It also acts as a muscle relaxant, which ultimately leads to a lessening of blood pressure.
Hawthorn Berry
Hawthorn berries work as a diuretic, dilating blood vessels and thinning the blood. This makes it easier for the heart to pump blood through the body.
Red Clover
Red clover is another plant that thins the blood. When the blood is too thick, it makes the heart work harder and increases blood pressure.
Other Naturals
Cassia bark, peppermint, dandelion, yarrow and mallow root are just a few of the many other plants that have been used for centuries to treat high blood pressure.
