A member asked:

I read 500mg of vitamin c may work to lower bp naturally . what is the medical opinion on that? i am seeking non prescription remedies to lower borderline bp.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Exercise: Exercise, weight loss and control of dietary sodium is the way to go. If not enough, better take medications. Think about it, a vitamin c pill is a purified chemical compound.
