One option: I can not say that this is the best remedy. However, acupuncture can be very beneficial as an adjunct for maintaining healthy blood pressure.

Low Sodium: A low sodium diet works but is difficult to achieve: you must avoid all dairy foods which are naturally high in sodium and not eat boxed, canned or restaurant foods. This means eating only meats, fruits, grains and vegetables in their unsalted state by cooking with other flavoring agents like lemon or other juices, herbs and spices, but not prepared sauces like soy or a1 or worcestershire.

None: There are no natural remedies. The best treatment can be recommended when the underlying cause can be identified. Weight loss, exercise, smoking cessation, reduced alcohol use , diet low in salt and rich in potassium are essential ways before meds are used.
