Hawthorn berry, basil and onions are some of the herbs used to make herbal remedies for natural high blood pressure treatment.
Hawthorn berry (Crataegus laevigata) has been proven to lower high blood pressure.
Hawthorn berry tea can be made by steeping one tablespoon of these berries in two cups of boiling water for twenty minutes. After straining, the blood pressure lowering brew can be sweetened with honey and enjoyed.
Basil (OcimumĀ bacilicum) is another herb which has been proven to lower blood pressure albeit temporarily.
To brew your own blood pressure lowering basil tea simply steep one teaspoon of dried basil leaves or one tablespoon of fresh basil leaves in two cups of boiling water. Strain the mixture after 20 minutes and enjoy your healing herbal tea.
Natural High Blood Pressure Treatment Salad
Onions (Allium cepa) contain a compound known as quercetin which lowers high blood pressure.
A delicious salad which also doubles as a home remedy for natural high blood pressure treatment can be made by mixing 1 large, diced onion with 1 cup of baby spinach torn into bite sized pieces.
Four cherry tomatoes can be added to the vegetable mix which can be completed by adding a tablespoon of fresh, blood pressure lowering basil leaves.
