- čas přidán 15. 08. 2024
- Hypertension impacts over 1,000,000,000 people worldwide and according to recent reviews less than 1 in 5 have it well controlled.
As a result, a tremendous amount of research is constantly being conducted into ways to lower blood pressure effectively. As most people know, there are a number of different approaches that can often be useful in lowering blood pressure including dietary alterations, maintaining a healthy weight, and getting regular exercise.Finally, if lifestyle changes alone are not enough medication may also be necessary but may be unavailable or ineffective in many cases.
Are there other options available? The answer is yes!
Today, we're going to share two proven approaches to lowering blood pressure at home. These can be remarkably effective and may be essential tools for people that are at higher risk in heart attacks, cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and stroke due to hypertension.
We hope you find this useful!

Just did the breathing exercise in the waiting room for about five minutes before my blood check up where I’ve normally been getting 140s over 90s at the appointments. Today after the breathing technique right before the appt I was at 120s over 80. Thank you.
Wow that’s amazing

I used to have high blood pressure, now it is 110/65 what really helped was losing 65 pounds.
Yep. That's probably the most successful approach available. Nice work
What was it in the beginning? Did you take BP meds until you lost the weight

@@veronicahndirangu3611 yes, on losartan potassium.
Took my blood pressure this morning and it was 130/83. I went for a 3 mile run and practiced the breathing exercise twice and the follow up blood pressure was 108/66. This was right on time as the second test was for a physical for a life insurance policy. Thank you for spreading great information.
Wow
Garlic and ground flax seed are great at lowering BP.
That’s great and time consuming run. Is it low on days you don’t run?

Hi, I'm Gloria from Nigeria. I developed HBP after delivery and it has be over 140/90 or more for over a year now with medication.
I stumbled into your video when was trying to get at home solution to this problem and I've been practicing both exercises for about a month now. My BP is now 127/75 without medication.
I can't thank you enough. God bless you Sir!
I'm a Nigerian too😊
May I know ma'am how long it last 😅
Same got highblood after my pregnancy
Yes same here with me I av been battle with it since av gave birth I don't what I can do to lower it my baby is just 3month still 150/90
I am Ethiopian, really reduced?
My BP has been super high with the top number reading as high as 183 and the low as high as 112. Did this breathing exercise just now and my BP is now 120/84!!!! I’m really amazing!
Really??
@@berhanu1631It does work. I have an app on my phone for these breathing exercises. Before blood pressure was 156/90 after 120/80.
Did you by the breathing devise or just do it naturally
This is awesome!! I am going to try the breathing technique 😊
Oh my gosh! I just took mine and it was 182/112. I’m trying not to let fear take over. I’m doing the breathing right now and hope it helps.
Eat well & exercise. Keep moving, cut down the sugar . Environment & keep away from people with a bad attitude. Make positive plans & don't over think a problem. Sing feel great & great for lungs .
And beet juice
But best of all: STOP LISTENING TO YOUR BS!

@@machonsote918 That's your problem if your not open & honest with confidence to be yourself , but you can work on it
@@patriciaoreilly8907 Truth hurts, don't it?
I just tried the 2 seconds in deep breath, hold 2 secs then exhale. But my exhale was around 10 secs. My BP was 158/103 when I started, then it kept getting lower over the next 5 mins till it went to 127/91. Wow! I dont take meds and it hasnt been this low in years. Thank you sooo much!!!
Fantastic to hear. Great job!
Thank you!🙏
How long did the low blood pressure last? I don't mean to sound cynical but my guess would be if you waited 30 minutes and measured your blood pressure again it will have gone back to what it was.
You are right Michael, the low blood pressure didn't last very long. It is just comforting to know I can lower it through breathing.
@ZHealthPerformance I have a few questions, could you answer?
1.Will doing more than 2 times a day for longer than 5 minutes cause any harm?
2.will doing it longer produce a longer effect?
3.Can I be moving while doing this exercise? Would sitting down or lying down be better for better results? Why?
My blood pressure was 180/84 just after the breathing exercise numbers went to 148/67 thank you so much 🙏🏽
Are you serious
Really?
I can believe this
@@berhanu1631
4-7-8 is a great breathing exercise I did it for 10 minutes and it lowered my blood pressure 20 points systolic and 10 points diastolic
Hand reflexology also seems to have some good effect on BP in the short term
It worked! My BP was 150/99 after breathing exercise and a warm shower for 15 minutes my BP went down to 128/88. Thank you. I also ordered the Isometric Hand Grip and the Breathing trainer from Amazon.
Just tried the breathing trick of 2 sec in, Holding for 2, and out for 6 sec. Measured 109/64. This is the lowest I've ever measured. Great relaxation technique for getting my BP down fast. Thanks
Nice work! Thank you for letting us know!
Your diastolic is still too high.
@@lynnevenables7193 64? That's not high.
@@lynnevenables7193 🤔🙃🤣
@@TheWolfWon I was actually replying to Devonne Jackson whose BP was 158/103, I’m not sure why it ended up on this thread.
I donate plasma on a regular basis twice a week but have had a high blood pressure reading for the last 3 trips, including my first attempt today. They gave me my usual 15 mins to relax etc before trying and sending me home if it was too high the second time. I couldn't understand because im pretty active, i drink lots of water, have a decent diet which has been great the last two months, ive never smoked or drunk alcohol in my life etc and am relaxed before donating. So I looked up videos to quickly lower blood pressure and thus one was at the top of the list.........I'm absolutely amazed and want to thank you for the success. Literally my blood pressure lowered within 10 mins and I'm now donating as i write this comment. Definitely have a new subscriber and supporter 🙏🏿
Keep up the amazing work 💯
Lol I'm sitting in the waiting room right now watching this cuz they sent me home yesterday. I have no idea why my heart rate spiked to 120 the past couple times but it's frustrating
@@ThatDudeWeirdit happens to me every time I donate blood to anyone volunteery
Just tried the breathing and my numbers went from 147/92 to 130/77. Fantastic and thank you. I also exercise 3-5 times per week.
This is an amazing video. My BP was 170/100 and after the breathing technique for 5 mins it dropped to 138/86!
How do you keep it that way naturally?
@@batman1169 Making a habit of breathing correctly, losing weight, consuming potassium regularly (4g daily)
BP went from 120/85 to 107/73 in FIVE minutes! Watching this video I thought I'd try out the breathing technique. I downloaded an app that's a metronome, set it for 1 beat per second with 10 bars and set the timer for 5 minutes. My bp actually did go from 120/85 (which is low for me, it's been much worse just this week alone) to an amazing 107/73! Ive been tracking my bp for several weeks and have never had it be within normal range, I'm always either hypertension 1 or 2. So THANK YOU! I'm sold, I'll do this breathing exercise once an hour. Not sure my doc will believe it until he sees my bp progress for himself.
How are you doing now?
@@yuqiao2397 I practice breathing 2-4 times a day and I've kept my BP in a normal range. But I do take medication as well. I contribute my improvements mostly to breathing and a mild change in diet, like I completely quit coffee & soda, and I try to avoid processed foods. Thank you for asking!
Two weeks ago I bought the same breather device, my BP was 180/85, only breathed 10 times and BP returned to normal 120/70. It’s really works.
How long did it stay there?
Glad you saw a good response!
What did you buy? Have a link? Thanks
@@randypond7499 That's the main question.
@@randypond7499 exactly I can't see this working unless you're doing it every 20 minutes
I have just tried the breathing method you described for 5 minutes. I wasn't fully convinced as i had tried breathing before .. after returning from a walk for 50 minutes, BP was 143/93. Took again after the breathing and I was astonished: 117/75. Thanks again.
Doing both of these together cuts out a lot of time within 5-8 minutes! Perfect! You could just do both each day.🎉
This is great advice and literally life-saving information. I loaded a metronome app on my phone, did the first round of breathing, and my BP went from 145/76 to 125/69 in 5 minutes! Thank you Dr Cobb!
Will not just go back up shortly after?
@@barndog2145 No! If you follow it as instructed, it really manages it and stays low. For me, at least.
Which metronome app , can you tell me specificy. I also want to monitor

Hello Doctor, I just wanted to thank you for helping me lower my blood pressure dramatically in just a few weeks of using the hand Dynamometer 3 times a week religiously. My blood pressure is constantly between 113/67/62 -
118/72/69 every morning. My readings use to range from 130/80/72 -135/82/80. The added benefit of increased hand strength is a bonus as well . Thank you so much Doctor your advice is greatly appreciated!
i use isometric grips two time a day in about 3 weeks my blood pressure dropped about 14 top and 10 bottom it works
I just did the breathing exercise for the first time, and I began to feel a little light-headed, which is an indication of a drop in BP.
Ok... same happened to me and I got scared. Glad I read this😅
I was also told that before taking blood pressure, to have an empty bladder, sit back in the chair, put feet flat on the ground, relax, then have the blood pressure taken. This works for me, particularly at the docs as it helps my white coat syndrome.
I found out that in Europe, they don’t take your BP at the doctor’s office. Most people have anxiety and apprehension at a doctor’s office which increases your BP. Make sense that the US takes it in the doctor’s office. Easy way to push meds.
Very informative video. FYI in Europe Blood Pressure (BP) readings are Not taken in medical settings because they know that BP will increase with travel and all it takes to get to the medical facility. Instead, patients are encouraged to take their own BP readings at home after relaxing for some time. The result in your true BP at rest. In the USA, BP readings are takin in the doctors office or hospitals and are artificially high resulting in patients getting subscribed BP medication needlessly. But the Pharmaceuticals love and profit from it. I will try the breathing method at home and when I go to see my doctor. Thanks again for the video.
This is true it’s called the white coat syndrome. When I go to the doctor they let me sit for 15 minutes before taking my bp reading.
My gp has always had a quiet wait and if high, a follow up towards the end of the appointment- we started talking bp more seriously when it stayed higher throughout instead of coming down as the appointment wrapped up.
Deep breathing excercises (I do the 7-4-8 method .. inhale for 7 secs, hold for 4, exhale for 8) work great for my systolic bp, drops almost by 20 points..slower for diastolic pressure, about 7,8 point drop.
I do 6 or so repetitions..works immediately.
I just got a fright - it felt like I had high blood pressure - tested and sure enough 178/95 - checked again 176 / 102 - it’s never been that high.
I watched your video straight away and did both lots of exercises
Gripping brought it down to 8:03 160 / 90.
Breathing down to 149 /82-
I will definitely start these again. I used to do them. Thank you
How you getting on ?
I’m really appreciating these extra tips - and the fact that it’s based on actual scientific studies!! Just to add my own personal strategy: I have personally seen a significant drop in my blood pressure by exercising every day at least 10 minutes (I’ll do more on the weekend for one day - maybe 30 minutes- since I have more time on the weekend.) I would consider my routines to be moderate low impact exercise with a cardio component - some days I’ll just do toning/light weights. They are not strenuous. I do exercise segments from CZcams and I particularly like 5 minute segments because I can do 2 back to back, or maybe split routines up (morning, midday, evening). And because the segments are so short and not intensive exercise, I’ll often say “I have time for one more” and do a total of more than 10 minutes in a day. But this is the key, it has to be EVERY day or nearly every day of the week. The change in blood pressure over time is remarkable if I do nothing else! When I stick to a relatively healthy diet (I’m not very strict diet wise, but I do try to watch my sodium intake) and also consume known blood pressure reducing foods/drinks (hibiscus tea, beet juice, coconut water, potassium rich foods), my blood pressure rocks! I mean, I can get it down to 117/120 over 70/80 - and this is from peaks that I had previously of 150/160 over 90’s (and higher if I was stressed). And I have never taken blood pressure medication up to this point (I’m 53).
Thank you!
@@ZHealthPerformance Hey! Can I do 2 mins on left, 2 mins on right, THEN rest for 4 minutes? Or does it require 4 mins of rest after EVERY set regardless of the side/hands?
so the rest of your life you have to constantly exercise? As soon as you stop it will be high again right?
@@mariadejonge3617For a healthy life I would suggest always working on exercising, breathing, good diet, stress reduction, etc. etc. Whatever works.
@@UAPbigfootandBOATDRINKS I do all of this but still my blood pressure is always around 150, I am vegetarian, I exercise, I do breathing and yoga, I take only 1/2 t salt
Oh my gosh I’m on my knees with gratitude❣️🙏🏻
For 1 week my BP has skyrocketed to 215 when normally I was 135. No known cause. I’ve got it down to 165 - but I don’t feel well. I pulled my car over and did the breathing exercises- I’m starting to feel better. I will do both of these while working with my doc and continuing to lose weight. Thank you sooooo much for posting this video.
Same here with my bp in the 200's/100's lately. Went to the hospital twice in a week but all my labs, ekg, chest xray were fine. Of course they pushed pills. I have an appointment with a naturopathic Dr. monday & a follow up on the 20th. I will be requesting blood work for vitamin & mineral deficiencies because hospitals don't include those for some reason. I've been taking the meds but hate how they make me feel. I've developed a cough, constipation & more fatigue than before in 4 days of taking them. I'll admit this is years of bad eating habits catching up to me so i'm working on my diet & exercise in the meantime. I take 1200 mg beetroot supplement an hour before the pills now & the lowest i've gotten to is 133/94 before bed. This will not be my life 🙏🏽
I measured 169/91 but after the exercise in 5 minutes . I measured 131/81
Just did this for 10 minutes & bp went down from 155/90 to 120/86
Did what? The breathing or hand exercises? I read also blow into ✊ fist to make that resistance adjust as needed. So happy for you. 😊
118/59 wow!! I did both in tandem and got good results~ Y'all are a life saver!! 🎉
Lifelong high B.P.Did manual labor most of my life.Ate a vegan diet for 6 years and never lowered my B.P. one notch.B.P. got up to 180/90.Started eating a carnivore diet, 6 weeks in got the lowest B.P. reading I ever had,130/78.Now several months eating carnivore and my B.P. is consistently normal for my age,66.Im in the 115-125 over mid to high 70s.
Fantastic to hear. Sometimes it takes a lot of experimentation and being willing to try different approaches.
Weird how you lowered blood pressure through a carnivore diet. I thought meat causes high blood pressure and high cholesterol?
I’m a meat eater but hypertension 2. I tried the raw vegan diet for 2 weeks and my blood pressure went from 155/99 to 108/72
Every BODY is different!!!
It depends, people think eating vegan/vegetarian is ultra healthy but all it means that you don't eat meat. Many vegan food contains high salt, high sugar, high carbs etc. I guess it is how you prepare what you eat.
My father got a blood pressure monitor in the 1970’s so he could do his blood pressure at home. It was amazing!
At the doctors office my blood pressure could be 180/85. At home I could get a 95/ 65.
Looks like doctors' offices cause high blood pressure; best to stay away from them. 😃
Sir, this just literally saved my life. Thank you so much!
Great to hear!

Ive lost from obese to about 20 lbs overweight BMI 29. I have genetic hbp- on meds since my 20s! Even when I weighed 128 pounds (totally normal for my height). Also tons of stress. Ive had problems with that no matter what.
In my 50s now and when I go to the doctor instead of the 117/78 or so which is been about normal for me for quite a while on lisinopril and atenolol.
Recently, the first time they take it at the doctor the diastolic has been going up in the 80s and even 92 and 94.
Any specific thoughts on this situation? My doctor is not too worried about it but as a high anxiety individual I am. She says she thinks it’s the white coat syndrome but why has it just come up now?
If they wait and take it again it’s back down to normal after I’ve been there for a while talking to the doctor.
I know you are busy. Sorry to ask, but you make more sense than most of what I’ve read/heard. Thank you!!!
I read somewhere that the hand grip exercise contracts and expands the blood vessels and eventually makes the blood flow better.
You are so right! I have HBP/Kidney disease. I have said for years deep breathing is exercise. I've seen it lower BP. So does meditation. I meditate when I take my BP and it goes down. I was an asthmatic as a child so I have breathing problems and probably sleep apnea which is a killer we know. When I eat salt it goes up, of course.
Thank you. I am going to start this as my BP just started getting higher at 65 yo.
We hope this is very helpful for you!
Thank you for this natural remedy for hypertension without medication. What I appreciate is you can do this and change your lifestyle to bring your blood pressure back down and get healthy:)
I appreciate your compassion in making this video to help save lives and give hope for changing your life!!
I have implemented both practices in my daily life and I am noticing a difference after a few days. THANK YOU😊😊
Thanks, recap isometric hand grip for 2 minutes,repeat 4 times , 2 on left and 2 on right,3 times a week 2. Breathing excersises with longer exhalation which stimulate parasympathetic ( rest and digest).
Perfect
Great advice I went from 170\110 to 136\83 thanks
Fascinating. My BP just went from (Yes, I'm serious, I checked several times) 197/113 to 175/113 I'm in New Zealand where a GP appointment can take up to 3 months and I simply cannot get in. I was just pondering the 6 to 12hr wait at the ED. Now I don't need to. Thank you.
Wow, that's high. Good luck!
Is it still high?
Meditating, with breathing to relax helps!
If I eat salty foods I have to flush my system by drinking more water! 175/113 is worth a visit to the ER! 175 affects the brain and 113 is affects the heart. Take care!!!
Thanks I practice deep breathing with long exhalation, meditation, all other healthy lifestyle like sleep, good organic food , intermittent fasting, OMAD or 2 meals , recycling to keep flexible metabolism, this control my high systolic blood pressure without any medication. This normal blood pressure continue till a new trigger. It is much quicker than drugs. Keep healthy keep learning god blessings.
Thank you very much and great work on taking care of yourself!
I looked into this and corroberated it with multiple reputable sources and decided to try it. I bought the hand grip ( about $27) and the Breather(also about $30). and did both --breathing and hand-- morning and evening for 4 days in a row. My blood pressure, for years, usually ran between 145-127 syst. and 87-73 dyst. After only 4 days it was 118/71 the next day 116/67. I went off for two days and my BP went to 134/66 then 145/72 the first day off and the next day149/72. I started again at 2x per day-- both breathing and hand-- and that day 126/75 the next day of 2x per day was 118/65.
So in other word as long as the excersize s are done blood pressure will remain lower? And you did not do the excersized right before checking correct?
@@fromnothingtoeverything1419 Yes. Bp changed 4 days after starting protocol 2x day from 130s/78s to 118-114/78. It will vary a little depending on stimulation(like being at the Dr. Office)
And yes, I take my BP readings separate from exercises.
Just bought a handexer exercise I’ll do it for 6 weeks and comment back on what happened to my blood pressure.
Its been a year
@@SuperKiko112 lol it didn’t really work I take beet root pills from Walgreens and it actually helped lower my blood pressure.
Wow, just found this online and ordered it. Can't wait for it to arrive. Doc wants me on meds - I'm 67yo and BP was about 135 or 140 (forget lower figure) and I'm doing all I can to avoid cos he told me that once started they're for life. Will post results after a few days. Thanks heaps ,👍
I know bp meds are not for life. Doctors just want you to get on that medication and keep you on it. My mom has heart disease and high bp. Once she changed her diet to eating only a whole foods plant based diet, along with avoiding oils, and sugar, she not only lost all of her excess weight, she no longer needed blood pressure medication. This also helped drop her cholesterol numbers more than her statin. This all happened within two months of changing her diet.
@@maryl8132 good to know thanks - it's highly immoral for specialists to recommend meds you don't need, especially if they're benefitting financially from it
Since there are many factors in high blood pressure, I wondered does this work for both physical and mental/emotional causes?
Held my breath for 2 minutes, passed out. Blood pressure was quite low. Now I will try holding weights 2 seconds, 2 seconds then 6 seconds! Thanks!
What😂
WOW! Absolutely works! Thank you. Simple breaking exercises! Going to definitely order the isometric hand grip, and the breathing trainer. 8-23-2023 👍
How is it working
Wow just Wow....BP....been averaging 170 over 110....spiking up to 204 over 140 (hospital ER)....tried several BP meds...no real help and almost killed me....Kidneys starting down etc....this dropped 20 and 10 off the first time I blew into it..(just like you said)..also have the hand exerciser...ps..a little disappointed that at 64 my grip wasnt as much as yours..))
I did deep breathing exercises for 35 years, and Meditation with slow breath work, and I am a breathwork therapist, this didn't do ANYTHING for my blood pressure at all. I will try the hand grip.
I just want to say I strongly believe the slow exhale works. Since doing the slow exhales, the last blood pressure readings were at normal range. I mean, this is much better than taking blood pressure medication!
Doing those breathing exercises raised mine by 40 points!
the breathing reduced my bp by 10 points systolic in 3 mins, i tried it twice.
EXCELLENT VIDEO! Straight to the point. Clear. Poignant Markers to Reflect Deeper, depending on Patient-Specific status. Viable suggestions & alternatives. Thank you kindly sir. Blessings
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!
Wall squatting and planks improve blood pressure more than cardio and also general tensing up and release but that's not to say swap cardio for it, I think this will be more prevalent as they conduct more studies in the future but worth researching about it. Also obvious stuff less salt because salt retains water and more water = more pressure, or counteract it with more potassium and plus potassium protects arteries. More exercise to strengthen the heart so it beats more efficiently just like if you had bigger muscles on arms you would lift shopping bags easier, same principle for heart. Food = all natural, very important, all veggies but especially green, salads etc. No processed foods, take steps now, relax and enjoy the journey.
Alternate nostril breathing (nadhi-shodhana if you are into yoga) for a few minutes will measureably drop systolic and diastolic. For those with "white coat syndrome", this can be discretely and easily be done in the doctor's waiting room.
Excellent. Thank you.
Right on, ayurvedic specialists emphasize this kind of thing.
Ayurvedic medicine or Indian medicine can help a great deal.

As a midwife, if I had a mom who had high blood pressure, (or was preeclamptic,) having her lie down on her left side for 15 minutes, helped bring the blood pressure down. Don’t lie on your right side, because you could compress your inferior vena cava….(which is bad.)
Mind blown. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
I have managed my blood pressure for the last 23 years by taking ionic magnesium, supplemented by exercise. It works.
Glad to hear that!
Any details on this? Type, how often you take it and when/how much?
Question on the isometric gripping technique:
Would it be OK to alternate hands for the grip and hold sequence?
Example:
Grip and 2 minute hold right hand
Rest 1 minute
Grip and 2 minute hold left hand
Rest 1 minute
Grip and 2 minute hold right hand
Rest 1 minute
Grip and 2 minute hold left hand
Rest 1 minute
And you're done
Yes, absolutely. Thanks

No joke my blood pressure went from 164/117 to 120/77 after 5 minutes….. 😲😲😲

This is incredible information. My loving Dad always used a handheld exerciser. As for breathing good yogas have talked about this kind of thing for years, i.e. breathing exercises
Thanks for sharing!!

We hope it's very helpful for you. Best of luck!
Nice Video .
Ive had borderline high blood psi for decades but manage to keep it under control with 2 things .
Decades ago , I learned while training with My Chinese Martial arts Instructor that most " Westerners " only use the upper portion of their lungs .
I learned that if You inhale through your nose slowly , and allow the air to go into your lower part of your lungs and then exhale through your mouth , You are using all of your lungs .
If You do this correctly , Your upper part of your body will barely move as you inhale .
The 2nd thing I use is eating Raw Garlic .
( Google health benifits of Garlic )
The physiologic shigh (two inhales, one long exhale) works for me every time, tested with the tensiometer. It's immediate.
More detailed information about both, squeeze hand/squeeze and breathing exercises. Name of both instruments... love to lower me BP naturally.
The tools used in the video: Camry Dynamometer and breathing device is The Breather. Both are available on Amazon along with many other similar tools. We are not affiliated with either company - just like their gear. Thank you
@@ZHealthPerformance thank you!!
What can you use in the absence of those two devices?
I was expecting to find the research articles properly cited. Very disappointing.
I have been using the shakuhachi flute shakuhachi ten minutes in a day, i use the pattern, 4 inhale and 6 exhale...🙏
That's awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Is there any value in doing the isometric hand grip exercise more than 3x / week? Can it be done daily? Thank you for this video.
Very good technique to practice breathing exercise. I do appreciate
Great video! Glad I stumbled upon it. Got a new sub!
Awesome, thank you!
The doctors will want to increase medication for those juicy kick backs !!!
SOOOOOOO true!!!!
His prologue shot my BP up.
Thought my blood pressure under control but it has gone up. 20 in one week. Action required
We wish you the best.
Insane the numbers you are saying this will lower by! I am definitely going to put this to the test.
Pls monitor your BP after you apply any Technique for lower BP. Because after you do it, BP will goes down and then Your BP will goes high again just a few minutes. I already tried many techniques and my BP is still back high!
Okay so I tried this for five minutes and it worked,
Wow! That is fantastic. I’m ordering these devices today.
Thank you for this video. I do not like taking medication for BP.. . I have tried other methods. Breathing exercise is good. But the hand exercise that you showed seems okay. Thanks for the lesson. God bless.

Who decided that "normal" blood pressure" is 120/80?.
That is the best question…and I think you know the answer.
Went in to donate plasma and they said my blood pressure was too high so they made me wait to take it again.
I googled how to lower blood pressure and found your video.
Used your technique and it worked.
Thank you, liked and subscribed.

My BP is 204/106 I'm trying the breathing exercise right now.
Does it work?
Holy shit 204/106? Are u doing okay right now?
It helped some, plus I drank lots of cold water.
Thank you for the information I really appreciate it! I we'll work on the breathing technique as well as try to find that breathing apparatus. Thank you again!
Excellent, and helpful. Thank you for sharing. God bless you
And you should mention that as we do the hand grip strength will increase so the 30% figure will change.
White coat syndrome: is a serious issue with me. Super elevated BP when in any medical environment--which is rare for me since I'm healthy and only visit doctors on a routine basis. BP I monitor at home, and is usually acceptable ranges. Yet, when I needed to have cataract surgery, BP super high at the intake, and I was considered at risk. They refused to do the procedure. Went on BP medicine, months later went to have the procedure, with the same reaction. Finally, I told them what the issue was, it's subconscious and frankly embarrassing. Procedure done. They sent me home saying to call within the hour with my home reading of BP. Yup, it's normal. I need to have the other eye done soon. How can I use the breathing technique to circumvent my body's reaction before, and during the procedure? If before, are the beneficial effects cumulative? Thank you!
Thank you for the info and question. White coat syndrome is so common and can be a big issue for exactly the reasons you've described. With regards to using these two approaches - there is often an immediate reduction in BP that you can measure at home. We would suggest practicing the breathing techniques (without the resistance tool) to see what effect 5 minutes does to your BP. If you get a decent drop this is something you can practice at the office just prior to your appointment. Or, even better, let them know you have issues with WCS and would like 5 minutes to do some breathing and relax before they take your BP. Also, the effects of these do appear to be cumulative over time.
I had cataract surgery back in December and before the surgery my BP was high. A month later they did surgery on the other eye and before that surgery my BP was sky high. They still performed the surgery. A week later my physician checked my BP and it was in the normal range. The mental state I was in before having surgery must have caused the elevated BP. The good news is I now still have normal BP and my vision is 20/20 in both eyes.

How high
I used the gadget called RespErate which plays a tune in your ear and monitors the breathing rate by a sensor on your belly. Listeing to the tune slows down your dreathing and then it continues at the slower rate for 15 mins. and cuts out. You do that three tines a week. Now the medics said " Yes but what about your on going BP which might return to the higher levels. But the fact was that when I did the above for three times a week my BP stayed low at reast. Don't ask me how. But it led to my medication being reduced.
I bought it some years ago and it was over £ 200 but I don't know if you can buy it now and what the price would be.
That's great to hear. RespErate has been around a while and is a great home option for BP control for man people.
WOW...This really works. My BP has been in the 145-155 Range for Systolic and 85-90 for Diastolic . Last night I did the breathing exercise for 5 min. It went to 129/73 Pulse 58.
This morning I was going to do a before nd after. ....Before ......121/66. Pulse 60 !!!!! Amazing!
Thank you Dr. you are a lifesaver!!!
I do everything on earth, exercise, diet (choose the right food) and etc. The only thing that i told my doctor (wrong doing) is that i don't have enough sleep. So, my cardiologist at NYU told me that "we can't choose our parents" i took it from my parents. Lack of sleep is also contributed to my high blood pressure. I was diagnosed at the age of 18 as intermittent hypertension. Now, after 40 years, it is really bothering me.
We're sorry to hear that. It is true that in some cases there is a strong genetic component but it sounds like you are doing a lot of good things already. With more challenging cases we don't know from a research perspective if these types of interventions might be helpful, but we would recommend discussing with your physician. Thank you
