Top 5 Lifestyle Changes to Naturally Lower Blood Pressure
1. Eat a Heart-Healthy Diet
Focus on consuming whole foods rich in nutrients that support cardiovascular health.
- Increase your intake of:
- Fruits and vegetables (especially leafy greens)

- Limit:
- Sodium-rich processed foods
- Sugary snacks and beverages

2. Stay Physically Active
Regular exercise strengthens your heart and helps maintain healthy blood pressure levels.
- Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate activity
