The announced new guidelines that states that high blood pressure is covers anyone with blood pressure above 120/80 mm Hg, while hypertension refers only to individuals with pressure of 140/90 mm Hg and above.

Most individual I know, including myself who have been taking blood pressure medications for over five years, is trying to get off their medications because of their different side effects.

One of the relatively safe natural herb, to take to help lower high blood pressure, such as Hawthorn Berry, leaves and flowers.

It has a hypotensive effect as well as acting as a direct and mild heart tonic.

The traditional use of hawthorn berries is the treatment of weak heart combined with high blood pressure. The berries are also used to treat a heart muscle that is weakened by age.

I drink the herb mostly as tea every two weeks along with other things to maintain my blood pressure.

Thank you Tom for getting the word out on the silent killer, high blood pressure.
