Mild weight loss (assuming the individual is overweight) often makes a remarkable difference.

- Avoid gratuitous salt & fat, and don't eat anything advertised on TV.
- Slowly work-up to doing regular, modest, aerobic exercise adjusted to _your_ particular age, weight, and cardiovascular condition.
- Don't forget to _enjoy_ your life...if you're not doing something fun for yourself already...start.
- Take five or so minutes each day at a particular time and devote it to _letting_ your thoughts wander aimlessly.
Not bad advice no matter what your blood pressure...but particularly good for many people with mild hypertension. All 'natural' too, doncha-know ;')

Steve Dyer and John have given good dietary and exercise advise. In addition I would like to say that my grandparents both used the garlic which brought there Bp enough that the meds were no longer needed.
