How effective is Ayurvedic treatment for high BP in naturally controlling blood pressure? - #13646
I was diagnosed with high blood pressure (hypertension) a few years ago, and my readings are usually around 150/95. My doctor prescribed medication, but I really want to explore natural ways to lower my BP without relying on lifelong allopathic medicines. I’ve been researching Ayurvedic treatment for high BP, as Ayurveda focuses on balancing the body and treating the root cause rather than just controlling symptoms. I read that Ayurveda sees hypertension as an imbalance in the Pitta and Vata doshas and treats it with herbs like Sarpagandha, Arjuna, Jatamansi, and Ashwagandha. Some formulations like Mukta Vati and Brahmi Vati are also commonly recommended for BP management. Has anyone successfully used Ayurvedic treatment for high BP to control their blood pressure naturally? Which herbs or Ayurvedic medicines worked best for you? Also, how long does it take to see noticeable results? Another thing—do Ayurvedic treatments require major diet and lifestyle changes? I’ve read that reducing salt intake, following a sattvic diet, and practicing yoga can help lower BP. How strict do I need to be with these changes for Ayurveda to work effectively? Would love to hear from anyone who has successfully managed their BP with Ayurveda!
