The Best Drink for High Blood Pressure
For years, I struggled with low blood pressure, often feeling light-headed during simple tasks like painting. But recently, my blood pressure started creeping up to around 150, and I needed a solution. That’s when I came across Dr. O'Neil’s advice: using cayenne pepper to lower blood pressure.
Intrigued, I mixed a teaspoon of cayenne pepper in water and drank it. The fiery sensation was intense, but three hours later, my blood pressure dropped to 120. Since then, I’ve swapped black pepper for cayenne in my meals, and my blood pressure stays between 120 and 130.
Cayenne pepper, rich in capsaicin, acts as a natural vasodilator, expanding blood vessels and improving circulation. While drinking it straight is effective, using it as a seasoning offers a milder, daily solution for managing high blood pressure.
