High blood pressure can be very dangerous. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the arteries when it is pumped by the heart. Hypertension, is a disorder in which blood vessels have a persistently high blood pressure.

Normal blood pressure in adults is 120 mm Hg when the heart beats (systolic tension) and 80 mm Hg when the heart relaxes (diastolic tension). When systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140 mm Hg and / or diastolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 90 mm Hg, blood pressure is considered to be high.

High systolic and diastolic blood pressures may have different effects on different types of cardiovascular diseases and at different ages, new findings suggest that individuals with higher systolic blood pressure are at increased risk of intracerebral hemorrhage (stroke caused by bleeding in brain tissue), subarachnoid hemorrhage (the most deadly form of stroke), and stable angina, whereas diastolic blood pressure is an indicator of the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm.

The optimal course of action to attend this problem is to see a doctor as soon as possible; however there are several types of food that can help to greatly reduce the blood pressure and can be used as an alternative or a complement to medicinal drugs, such are:

A Clove of Garlic

Garlic is an element that should never be lacking in your diet as it cures many diseases. In this case, it will help dilate the arteries and prevent the formation of thrombi. One clove of garlic a day will be enough to take advantage of its benefits. From removing bad cholesterol and lowering triglycerides, to strengthening your blood cells and immune system and even to stop bleeding gums, there are endless benefits achieved by the consumption of garlic.

The trick to help out with blood pressure is very simple, just swallow a peeled clove of garlic every morning on an empty stomach, that's it. It will not only help you with you arterial tension, but also will improve you health in several ways.
Another alternative is to make a tea with a cup of boiling water and a crushed garlic clove. Add a little lemon juice and if you wish, sweeten it with honey. Take a cup daily.

If you mind the smell in your mouth after doing this, you can use a grain of coffee, keep it in your mouth as a candy for a few minutes, also a few sips of milk will remove the smell. The healing benefits wildly surpass the smell in you mouth though.

This two elements combined have the property to lower blood pressure very fast. To make one litre of the beverage the recipe goes like this:

One garlic head, unpeeled.
Half a cup of water.
Put the lemon, the garlic head and the half cup of water in a blending machine and blend it all until you get a homogeneous paste.
