Guest guest Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 I eat raw garlic every morning and every night. I usually eat a banana to take my herb capsules and garlic, but use what I have when I'm out. I cut my garlic in lengthwise and in small enough pieces that I can chew some food and just before I swallow, pop some garlic in. If I need to I cut the garlic length in half again.

If you don't want the trouble of collecting fresh , you can buy teabags or capsules..

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Thanks All!!Some GREAT suggestions here! I'm going forward with renewed energy to try this!One more question on the celery. I have a couple of juicers and juice regularly. Is celery juice as effective as eating the entire stalk? Is the juice sufficient, or should I add some pulp too?Any benefit or deficit to adding wheatgrass to the mix? I'm seeing a garlic/celery/wheatgrass juice tonic in my future with a healthy dose of cinnamon and honey or Agave Nectar to help it go down.... I'd try the capsules, but i have the patience of a 3yr old,and I'd throw everything out the window before it could do me any good! **smile**ArnoldOn Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 9:50 PM, nlc83 <nlc83 wrote: Do the cloves have to be chewed? or can they be swallowed wholeand still provide the same benefits?

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Ok, one more....Sorry, I have to keep asking this, because I've gotten soooo many different answers.Will the live enzymes in the celery survive overnight being frozen in a juice? Or are they like wheatgrass, have to be consumed in the first 15mins, to get maximum benefit? My niece works at a local co-op that gets fresh pressed apple juice from local farmsand the enzymes in that juice are so active, that you have to crack the lid a bit on the bottle to keep it from expanding too far.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 ---I only take the hawthorn tea. Nothing else for high BP. It works for me. I tried garlic first both raw ( couldn't manage it longer than a week) and then 1000mg capsules of garlic but then i read about hawthorn berries and i also read often it can be due to low magnesium so i also took magnesium 350mgs for a couple of months. I have stopped the magnesium quite a few months ago and my BP stays stable without it but i keep a check on it regularly and may take magnesium on and off if i think my body needs it. I can't say whether garlic on its own would have worked for me because i didn't take it for long enough but i certainly don't need BP meds as well!! Anyone i know who takes them, apart from all the side effects , it only seems to lower BP by 10/15 points where hawthorn brings it back to normal. I maybe should mention that my BP was 177/80 and is now around 125/130 over 60/65 ( provided i have my 3 cups a day ) I didn't know about celery until i saw it here just the last couple of days. lucy In herbal remedies , Winterchill <winterchill57 wrote: > > Do you take medication on top of the Hawthorne tea and celery or are the tea/celery taken solo? > > > Susan > > 'Do what thou wilt, but harm none'.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hello, Everyone! I'm new here. I've been involved in complimentary and alternative therapies for a few years now. I am a Homoeopath of sorts, practice Hand on Healing, and use modern vibrational instruments in my everyday life. In the case of High blood pressure(Hypertension), I can recommend two Bach Flower Remedies which will work wonders in the case of High Blood pressure. You can easily quire them from any herbal supplement store or even major Grocery stores. Make sure the mixture is 50% Flower Extract mixed in Brandy and water(the other 50%). The two Bach Flower Remedies are Agrimony and Mimulas. Take about 5-8 drops of each in a tea cup of lukewarm mineral drinking water. Take at morning and night or when your pressure is High, or you feel the onset. If you are already taking it twice a day, then do not take anymore. In 3-7 days your Blood pressure will be gone and may not return. Do not warm the water with the remedies in the water. Do not use Microwave oven. Do it the good old fashioned way. Others who have taken this remedy have recovered completely. I make this information available to the Public Domain. It is not to be Patented or used for profit. Sincerely, Sharf. herbal remedies , " devjan2003 " <lucyloulou964659 wrote: > > ---I only take the hawthorn tea. Nothing else for high BP. It works for me. I tried garlic first both raw ( couldn't manage it longer than a week) and then 1000mg capsules of garlic but then i read about hawthorn berries and i also read often it can be due to low magnesium so i also took magnesium 350mgs for a couple of months. I have stopped the magnesium quite a few months ago and my BP stays stable without it but i keep a check on it regularly and may take magnesium on and off if i think my body needs it. > I can't say whether garlic on its own would have worked for me because i didn't take it for long enough but i certainly don't need BP meds as well!! Anyone i know who takes them, apart from all the side effects , it only seems to lower BP by 10/15 points where hawthorn brings it back to normal. I maybe should mention that my BP was 177/80 and is now around 125/130 over 60/65 ( provided i have my 3 cups a day ) > I didn't know about celery until i saw it here just the last couple of days. > > lucy > > In herbal remedies , Winterchill <winterchill57@> wrote: > > > > Do you take medication on top of the Hawthorne tea and celery or are the tea/celery taken solo? > > > > > > Susan > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > 'Do what thou wilt, but harm none'.

Brought my BP down to normal in 4/5 weeks and now it stays there so long as i keep taking it .If i stop , it goes back up again. Its also great for the heart and circulation. If you don't want the trouble of collecting fresh , you can buy teabags or capsules.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I have started acupuncture 2 weeks ago. Yesterday was my second visit. It will take a few months to show some significant benefits. I also drink hawthorne berry tea and take cayenne tincture when I am sick.

The meds are not only depleting your body but are taking a toll on your liver as well.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 My BP has been as high as 200/100. By last '07 It was regularly at 150-170 over 90. I'm now running 120-126 over 80. I intend to get the lower number down some more by weight loss. The upper numbers have come down by many things, most notably the Carey Reams Lemon Water Protocol, eating a minimum of one high C bearing fruit a day, preferably for me a non-estrogenic fruit like Kiwi or Grapefruit, and taking one of two Magnesium Bicarbonate methods.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 To keep blood pressure low: (1) Drink lots of water; (2) Do not you table salt but use sea salt. Use only a very tiny pinch. Salt raises bp; (3) Drink moringa tea, it really keeps my bp lower now. You can buy fresh/frozen from Asian markets. Also known as Drumstick. Scientific name is moringa oleifera. (4) And here is a good surprise: If you are not diabetic, take " natural " pineapple juice. canned with no sweeterners added. This dramatically lowers bp to normal when high. Lemonade without sugar might do it too, though i never tried that yet. Pineapple i've tried and it does work. Take this only when bp is high because tropical fruits are very high in sugar which can make you diabetic if taken everyday. Pineapple is also good in bringing up blood glucose when hypoglycemic. Two tablespoons of it is enough to raise blood sugar to normal from a 70 reading. Melly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 --- Hi Arnold I collect them from the actual hawthorn berry bushes. Theres loads all around the english countryside , but if you're in the US , I honestly don't know. Capsules and teabags are apparently good but i always feel the real thing is better somehow. You could buy capsules and teabags off the net if you can't get fresh berries.
