Causes of High Blood Pressure: Natural Blood Pressure Solutions and Remedies

By James Bogash, DC

There is nothing normal about a blood pressure that is too high. This is one of your body’s warning signs that something is wrong. If uncorrected, the damage to your heart and brain greatly increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke.

Medications are usually thought of as the answer, but recent research suggests that blood pressure medications do nothing to protect your heart and brain. Worse, some blood pressure medications actually increase your risk of a stroke—the very thing you are trying to protect.

I have been publishing posts related to blood pressure for many years. This book puts all of this information in an organized format to help you understand what is happening to your body as well as how to improve your blood pressure numbers naturally.

Many of the topics discussed in this book may be new to you and may never have been brought up by your personal physician. Unfortunately, there is a veritable chasm between the medical research and what primary care doctors and cardiologists seem to share with their patients. The “standard” recommendations are usually decades behind the research I will be sharing with you. This is why every single comment is backed up by supporting medical research.

Each topic that I cover is supported by medical research with provided links so that you can read the original medical article that the post was centered around.

It is my hope that the concepts and ideas given in this book are going to help your understanding of your condition as well as help in improving your health as it relates to preventing and managing high blood pressure. There are many tools that can positively impact the health of your cardiovascular system.

In this book, you are going to learn:

1) The causes of high blood pressure.
2) Why using medications to manage blood pressure can actually worsen your health.
3) Supplements and lifestyle changes that can reduce blood pressure.
4) How blood pressure ties in with other diseases like migraines, stroke, heart disease and diabetes.

Happy reading!

Since acquiring a passion for how the body works in chiropractic school, I have continued to indulge this desire by reading some 120 peer reviewed medical journals per month. I'm always learning more about how to help people avoid chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, dementia, osteoporosis, obesity and cancer, and pass along this information in my blog. There are currently almost 2,000 posts cataloged on almost every health topic imaginable! For some reason, the information that we understand about avoid and managing chronic diseases remains a big secret. Drugs dominate and lifestyle is pushed to the side. Time after time I have new patients come into my office that have not been given the information they need to get or stay healthy. This blog has always served as therapy for me, allowing me to share with the world this hidden information. Hence the name "Rantings…"

There is nothing normal about a blood pressure that is too high. This is one of your body’s warning signs that something is wrong. If uncorrected, the damage to your heart and brain greatly increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke.

Let me stress this again—NEVER is it acceptable to rely solely on blood pressure lowering medications to control your blood pressure. In no case is this fixing the problem.

Just to make this point more important, Research suggests that blood pressure medications do nothing to protect your heart and brain. Worse, some blood pressure medications actually increase your risk of a stroke—the very thing you are trying to avoid.

CAUSES OF HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE; THE BASICS

In order to understand how to fix high systolic blood pressure, you first need to understand more about how your blood vessels work.

Many people think about blood vessels as a tube or pipe. This is FAR too simplistic.

Human blood vessels are an incredibly complex tissue that responds almost instantaneously responds to its needs. Watching a movie and your visual cortex needs more blood to process what your eyes are seeing? The blood vessels feeding this region of the brain open up to improve oxygen and nutrient delivery. Hear some strange noise in the middle of the night? The regions of the brain involved with hearing get more blood flow almost instantaneously.
