Controlling High BP.

[Mr.Perfect]

I throw back a few hawthorn berry caps a day and I give blood every 50 days. I've been on trt now for over five years, and the only BP issues I've experienced was from 1 gram of tren ew. It went away as soon as I stopped the tren.

Why hasn't anyone mentioned water? This is the best thing to thin blood out.

Ensure you are getting adequate amounts of water intake daily.

Personally, I don't feel taking medication for blood pressure is the answer. Take one thing (aas) then have to take more medication to counter the sides?

Personally there is many natural sources that help lower blood pressure.

What I take daily is 10grams of l-argenine
4 grams of l-citruline
600mg magnesium ( and if you aren't supplementing with magnesium anyways you are really cheating yourself. )

And of course I drink ginger and green tea daily.

My blood pressure remains at 110/ 70 this is taken 3 times per day for a few selected random days out of the week.

A final note: my blood pressure used to be 140/85 constantly years ago until I decided to do something about it. But I've never taken a medication product to fix the underlying issue since medication only masks the underlying issue.

Another 10/10 from the wise Rabbit.
Thank you, sir.

I take L-Arginine and celery seed extract on and off cycles to help control. I get elevated BP even when E2 is controlled.

Yes celery seed extract does wonders. I have naturally low BP but if I take test over 300 mg/wk it shoots up. If I'm on high doses of test say 750 a week it might climb to 180/100. But celery seed will put it back within normal range. I was shocked when I first tried it. Stuff really works. So I would try that before you go trying any Pharmaceutical

good recommendation.

Dude above me suggested it but I agree lol. As far as dose, I get mine at Vitamin Shoppe, 3 capsules is 1500 mg but I don't know how much of that is the active ingredient because it's not listed, it says to take that three times daily, I rarely take that whole amount though. Works very quickly, like one dose quickly. My BP was in the 175 over 100 range, took 3 capsules, the very first time, and it went down to 126 / 85 I believe. I shit you not.

I looked it up and saw from 150 mg to 1000 mg so I'm curious too.

FYI you can just eat celery as well to get the same benefit, personally I'm not a big fan so I'd rather just take the pills. But I think 4 stalks approximates one dose of the extract, although I'm sure there's a lot of variance in that

How much do those supps would u estimate lower your blood pressure. (As in points of the dystolic of systolic number)

You'd have to eat way too much celery to get same benefit. Get the extract instead

Buy carditone from Amazon. Works just as Well as prescription meds

While 140/85 ain't that high,
what did you do to bring it down, what worked and what didn't?
(you mentioned several supplements)

All those supplements is what helped. Each one lowered the blood pressure a little.

I started out with citruline and argenine at first then kept adding in the supplements and everything kept getting better. I now take the argenine and citruline before working out for increased pumps etc, but still take that exact dosage.

I drink my Japanese loose leaf green tea with ginger ( I use ginger powder) mixed in or sometimes I'll take a fresh ginger root and cut up and add to the water and let it steep. Normally drink this at the end of the day to relax and help digestion over the night while helping the blood pressure.

I keep to this full regimen I listed daily now, except I normally stick between 400-600mg of topical magnesium daily before bedtime. If you use magnesium use magnesium chloride this is the top shelf kind of magnesium.

Do you use you citruline and argenine as a pre workout, or spread out throughout the day?

All in pre work out. If I'm not working out that day then I'll just drink whenever

 

[Storm127]

I buy the powder not the pill. Teaspoon is 2500 mg. Once daily does it for me.

Good posts in this thread, thx.

Any other supplements that you find worthwhile, and why?

Magnesium glycinate is the form of magnesium that is best absorbed

When you are talking about ingesting you are correct. But the absorption rate is still low when taking orally.

Topical magnesium is better absorb. The skin / largest organ soaks it in far better and bypasses the digestion system.

So yes, you are correct it is the best form when speaking of taking orally by mouth, but then we are comparing apples vs. oranges.
