How could a healthy person lower their blood pressure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lifestyle/diet chang: Less salt, alcohol, and calories can help with weight and bp. Regular aerobic exercise and improved muscle tone increases muscular blood flow and helps lower afterload. Relaxation techniques might help. A dash diet with specifics can be researched on line. Each of these maneuvers can help lower BP non-pharmacologically.
