What is High Blood Pressure or Hypertension?
Hypertension refers to increase in blood pressure in the arteries. The condition is commonly known as high blood pressure. Sustained rise of blood pressure to 140/90mmHg or above is considered hypertension or high blood pressure. High blood pressure without any underlying cause is referred to as primary or essential hypertension while high blood pressure with a cause is termed secondary hypertension. Hypertension runs in families. The major risk factors that predispose a person to hypertension or high blood pressure are obesity, increased salt intake, lack of exercise, stress, tobacco intake, alcohol consumption, thyroid disease and kidney disease. Hypertension increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. Therefore, once diagnosed with high blood pressure, one should seek medical advice as early as possible to prevent complications and permanent organ damage. In a majority of the cases, high BP is silent, without any obvious symptoms. In cases where the symptoms appear, they mainly include headaches in the occipital region (back of head), vertigo, breathing difficulties, vision troubles, chest pain and tinnitus.
Advantage of Homeopathic Treatment of High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure can be managed well with the use of Homeopathic medicines. Homeopathic medicines, together with proper diet management and exercise, keep high blood pressure in check to a large extent. Homeopathic medicines for high blood pressure are made from natural plant sources and are therefore, safe for long term use. Persons who have recently been diagnosed with hypertension and have not yet become dependent on conventional medication can benefit greatly from Homeopathic medicines. If the person is already taking allopathic medicines for high blood pressure, it is not advisable to stop the medication all at once. In fact, Homeopathic medicines can be taken together with these medicines to stabilise and better manage the condition.

Allium Sativa and Crataegus – Reliable Homeopathic medicines for high blood pressure due to high cholesterol
The normal blood cholesterol a body needs is less than 200mg/dl.

As a result, the blood has to exert higher pressure while flowing through these arteries because of the hindrance caused by the cholesterol deposits. Here, Homeopathic medicines Allium Sativa and Crataegus prove extremely helpful. These medicines effectively manage the resulting high blood pressure. In fact, these Homeopathic medicines lower the cholesterol, thus bringing the blood pressure back to normal making them the most effective Homeopathic medicines for high blood pressure. These medicines are mostly used in tincture form for best results.
