Lifestyles Changes
Lifestyle plays a major role in the development of hypertension and any program to reduce blood pressure must take this into consideration.
Experts note that any changes that are implemented must be maintained if blood pressure is to be controlled on a long term basis.
Smoking should be moderated, or totally avoided and alcohol intake should be kept to a minimum.
Weight loss reduces blood pressure in those with and without hypertension and should be a primary goal for hypertensives who are obese or moderately overweight.
Other factors for reducing and controlling hypertension are infrared exercise and stress management.
