Sir,
I would like to seek help for home management on high blood pressure. Can you please explain how can one regulate High BP within normal range without medications?
Hello, you have to regularly do exercise and should modify your diet which contains less salt in it ..
There is nothing like home management, although you can focus on low salt intake and exercise.
If your bp is more than 120/80 then kindly seek to the doctor as bp can be life threatening.
Reduce salt intake in diet to very minimum. Reduce weight , reduce peripheral fat . Do exercise daily or you can walk for 1/2 hr daily after dinner . Include green leafy vegetables and salads in diet . Any doubt you can consult me online here
As such there is nothing specific like home management for high blood pressure. Although you can do regular exercise and reduce salt intake in your diet. If it still persists then consult your doctor.
The DASH diet, or Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, is a healthy eating plan that can help lower blood pressure ....you can search more on internet..another DASH DIET
Salt restricted diet , avoid fatty fried food , avoid ghee , eat more fibre, if you are on medication monitor your bp every day and let me know the bp charting
You can follow DASH diet
Reduce usage of salt by less than 1 spoon a day
Main goal should be on reducing weight, which will eventually reduce peripheral resistance, age related vascular changes in arteries and hence hypertension.
But in the end you can only control bp but not cure with lifestyle modification.
Some drugs can control your bp and prevent complications associated with longterm htn.
Thank you

Avoid extra salts in your diet, do regular exercise daily and avoid stress.
Reduce anxiety, don't over work and put stress on urself , adequate hydration, salt intake should be reduced it can even stop if the pressure is very high, walking for half an hour every day
