I have high blood pressure. What should I do to lower it?
assistant
1. Start by talking to your doctor and discussing the best course of action for lowering your blood pressure.
2. Reduce sodium intake, as too much salt can raise blood pressure.
3. Exercise regularly, as physical activity can help reduce stress on your heart and blood vessels.
4. Monitor your blood pressure at home with a monitor or app.
5. Eat more fruits and vegetables, which are rich in potassium and magnesium, both of which help lower blood pressure.
