What would be good to take for high blood pressure? All the other meds have bad side effects and make your hair fall out. Thanks.

Hello Phyllis,
Here is one suggestion from Susun: "I like Motherwort tincture, a dose of 25 drops several times a day, to lower blood pressure. And an hour of yoga a week is also in order, or a mile walk at least three times a week. And a diet with lots of whole grains, well-cooked fruits and vegetables, and yogurt or fish more frequently than meat helps too."
Along with the motherwort, be sure to incorporate lots of garlic in your diet, hawthorn tincture can be another helpful ally, nettle infusions ... Here is a link to one of Susun's articles with lots of ideas - it is discussing dealing with HPB during pregnancy, but that doesn't matter, the suggestions will still be the same as what I would be doing if it were me...
