I have high blood pressure also, and was given some of those same "remedies". Not long after I started cutting out caffeine and salt (really hard), and I also started taking a 15 min cat nap a day-may not be possible for everyone I realize. My blood pressure did come down, not overnight or anything but a measureable amount.Let us know how you did..Edited Post : To remove Link- no advertising allowed!
