I understand taking pills daily at times can make us not feel too great and wish we could do without them. Congratulations on having accepted to take the all this while and keep your health in a good state. There are many products out there which claim to be able to keep you blood pressure well controlled. All by themselves, it is very difficult and in most cases impossible. They are rather supportive measures that may reduce the dose of medications that you need to keep your blood pressure controlled. Also, these products are not validated to be used as medications and sure no doctor would want to expressly prescribe them as main treatment option. Weight loss, low calorie diet, low salt intake and regular exercises are helpful in achieving and maintaining a normal blood pressure. Talk with you treating physician to get more specifics and let him know how you feel about these medications at this time. He may suggest a review based on your numbers. Hope this helps. I wish you many more health and enjoyable years. Thanks.
