My husband has high blood pressure and been prescribed Crestor & Micardis. But, due to high costs, we are unable to afford his medications. What are YOUR food suggestions? Everyone always say "diet and exercise" and we know that. My husband does not have a problem with his weight. He’s 38 years old, 165lbs., 5’7" tall. He’s still muscular (somewhat) due to years of body building. His siblings (all under 45 years old) & parents are all under medication for high blood pressure & high cholesterol.

naturally stay off caffeine and salt

but I add the following to my diet

bananas – we need added potassium to keep our electrolytes balanced

celery – I eat 4 stalks a day because one mans bp dropped 50 points in a few weeks doing this

1tablespoon Apple cider Vinegar in warm water and honey

eat oatmeal for breakfast

of course drink water

add walking to his regiment
