My mum's blood pressure is quite high. She is on medication for this but it is still too high. She doesnt smoke, only drinks an occasional glass of wine and generally eats a healthy diet . She is in her 70's and is very active for her age although her hip is starting to bother her now so she cant walk as far as she used to. What can help her with this problem? Any dietary tips?

My partner has high blood pressure and I have read that a glass of tomato juice every day will help lower blood pressure.

I would also suggest having porridge for breakfast, eating bananas, taking a vit C supplement and if exercise is becoming difficult she should consider taking up meditation and learn some slow breathing exercises. Best of luck she should cut out as much salt as possible it should go down then You should get medical help . Cause as I can see it is not related with diet . I mean diet helps a lot keep on diet but your mother should take some Bp lowering drugs . Take care

I hope she would be better. has alot to do with stress and how one handles it I think may be your mother should try alternative medicine.
