High Blood Pressure (Hypertension) 

Here is a TIP! Alternative Medicine:  Tip: Can also help such as the skin of a baked potato or boiled potato or a couple bites of Rice and Ginger. You need one to two bites of the potato's skin and it will immediately lower your blood pressure. 

Over 1 billion people around the world have high blood pressure.

It is defined as systolic blood pressure (SBP) values (the top number) of
130 mm Hg or more, diastolic blood pressure (DBP, the bottom number)
of more than 80 mm Hg,

pressure levels and reduce your risk of heart disease. Doctors may also
prescribe medications to reduce blood pressure levels, including
angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. If your blood pressure is
consistently high, seek medical attention/advice.
