The norms for blood pressure (BP), as modern medicine interprets them, change periodically. It was once believed that it was 120/80 and nothing else. Now it is believed that the upper (systolic) should not rise above 140 mm Hg. Art., and the lower (diastolic) - above 90 mm Hg. Art. If the numbers are higher, this is classified by modern medicine as hypertension and a reason to take blood pressure-reducing pills for the rest of your life.

However, Ayurveda looks at it differently. She says that blood pressure naturally increases with age. And at the age of 60 and above, the upper limit may be higher than today’s “norms”. If it does not manifest itself with any symptoms, then there is no need to worry too much - that’s what Ayurveda says. In any case, you should not knock it down, because if the body has increased the pressure, then most likely this is necessary for normal blood supply to the main organ - the brain. But if there are symptoms, then this is a deviation from health and needs to be treated.

Symptoms of high blood pressure:

• Frequent headaches.
• Dizziness, tinnitus, spots in the eyes.
• Sleep disorders.
• Dyspnea.
• Irritability, anxiety.
• Frequent heartbeat, pain in the heart area.

Causes

Today, the main causes of hypertension are unhealthy diet and sedentary lifestyle.
Most of the foods we consume - fast foods, canned food, foods with added chemicals - create digestive problems in the body. Poor digestion leads to the accumulation of ama (toxins), which further leads to high blood pressure. The food we eat is digested by our digestive fire (jatharagni) to produce nutritious plasma. This plasma nourishes all other dhatus (tissues) and helps in the production of healthy blood, which circulates throughout the body through various channels (srotas). However, if digestion is disrupted, the nutrient plasma runs out and digestive impurities or ama are produced. The blood thus becomes heavy and sticky. This heavy blood (with impurities) circulates through various channels and toxins begin to accumulate in the channels of the body. When the buildup occurs in the channels of the heart, these toxins cause the channels to narrow. Therefore, blood must end up exerting more pressure as it circulates through these channels. This leads to increased blood pressure.

Additionally, stress, anxiety and negative mental feelings also cause increased blood pressure. Other reasons may be: family history of hypertension, obesity, lack of physical activity, consumption of high-fat and low-fiber foods, excessive consumption of tea, coffee and refined foods, etc.

Ayurveda for normalizing blood pressure

Ayurveda for normalizing blood pressure - Ayurvedic medicines for normalizing blood pressure in the form of a table.

Ayurveda for normalizing blood pressure additional information

• Hypertension - increased blood pressure - is the most common complication and at the same time the cause of heart disease. Manifestations and treatment methods for hypertension generally correspond to those for heart disease. Along with this, herbs are used that have a more pronounced effect on the nervous system: brahmi, calamus, valerian, skullcap and jatamamsi.

A special Ayurvedic herb for regulating blood pressure is sarpaganda (Rauwolfia serpentina).

Features of manifestations (types) of hypertension and their treatment

Manifestations of Vata (air) type hypertension are variable in nature and are often accompanied by nervous disorders. After overwork, overstrain, anxiety or insomnia, blood pressure may suddenly rise and just as suddenly fall. The pulse is irregular, variable both in frequency and in volume. Hypertension often accompanies nervous disorders. Mainly tonic therapy is carried out. Garlic is especially useful. Milk decoction of nutmeg or Saraswat powder improves well-being. Tonic treatment with ashwagandha-based preparations is usually carried out for a long time. A good composition is obtained from ashwagandha, valerian and brahmi in equal parts. Ghi is used as anupana.

With Pitta-type (fire) hypertension, the face is red, the eyes are inflamed, and severe headaches, photophobia, nosebleeds, a burning sensation, irritability and anger are often observed. This condition often occurs with liver disorders, so appropriate methods are used to treat it. Bitters are beneficial, including aloe juice, barberry and katuka. It is recommended to cleanse with bitter laxatives - aloe, rhubarb, senna. Brahmi is used as a special remedy to calm the mind in such cases. Compositions based on brahmi, Brahma rasayan and Saraswat powder are used. Brahmi and skullcap in equal parts help well.

Kapha (water) hypertension is usually accompanied by obesity, fatigue, edema and high cholesterol. Blood pressure is elevated and stable. During treatment, you should avoid eating dairy products, butter, eggs and foods high in fat. Red pepper, myrrh, garlic, motherwort and hawthorn berries are useful, as well as preparations based on arjuna and the composition of Trikatu. Licorice is contraindicated.

• Arteriosclerosis . With arteriosclerosis, due to increased cholesterol levels, arterial blockage occurs: due to fat deposition in Kapha and Pitta types of arteriosclerosis and hardening of arterial walls in Vata type.

The treatment is the same as for heart diseases, in particular for hypertension, which often develops against the background of arteriosclerosis.

To reduce cholesterol levels in patients with Kapha or Vata constitutions, garlic is a good remedy (with honey for Kapha, in the form of a milk decoction for Vata). Calamus and turmeric work well, as does elecampane. Aloe juice with turmeric or safflower and the Ayurvedic plant Katuka are good for Pitta. Myrrh, saffron, motherwort, hawthorn berries and guggul, which reduces cholesterol levels, are also effective. In Chinese medicine, polygonum multiflorum and dan shen are used.

• Hypotension is low blood pressure, which is usually a complication of various chronic diseases and can occur with exhaustion, anemia and malnutrition. Usually there is a weakness of the digestive fire and appropriate treatment is required. Hypotension is more common in Vata constitutions, which tend to weaken blood circulation. In Kapha representatives, it occurs against the background of mucus stagnation, blockages and weakened blood circulation. With a Pitta constitution, the cause is usually anemia or liver disorders.

To treat hypotension, herbs that stimulate blood circulation are used: turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, red and black pepper, garlic, aconite, cardamom.

For Vata, a good remedy is garlic or the “Garlic” composition. For Kapha - Trikatu, for Pitta - saffron or turmeric with aloe juice.

Ruby or garnet helps with hypotension in Vata and Kapha, and yellow topaz or yellow sapphire is good for Pitta

Ayurveda's perspective

Ayurvedic lineage for the treatment of hypertension aims to identify the root causes of this condition and the use of herbs that can eradicate the cause of this problem. In order for this to happen, it is necessary that digestion improves and the digestive fire intensifies. Toxins that have already accumulated in the heart channels must be eliminated. Finally, through relaxation techniques - including meditation, yoga and pranayama - it is recommended to ensure that the mind remains calm and stable.

What to do if the disease has already occurred?

Treatment is prescribed taking into account the reasons that caused the increase in pressure and the predominant imbalance - vata, pitta or kapha. Useful for everyone:

• Abhyanga massage (unlike Western massage, Ayurvedic abhyanga with warm oil reduces blood pressure)
• Pranayama (breathing exercises) nadi shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) and brahmari (making sound as you exhale)
• Shirodhara procedure - warm oil is poured in a thin stream onto the forehead, in combination with a head massage, it relieves nervous tension and balances the dosha. Depending on the current imbalance, the shedding can be a herbal-whey decoction (takradhara) or a herbal-milk decoction (kshirodhara).
• Panchakarma is an Ayurvedic detoxification, with an emphasis on virechana (laxative therapy) and raktamokshana (hirudotherapy), and basti (nutritional cleansing enemas).
• Vegetarian diet
• It is believed that pomegranate and viburnum juice normalize blood pressure.

Diet for hypertension and lifestyle

Avoid meat, eggs, salt, pickles, tea and coffee. Avoid smoking as it increases your heart rate. Use garlic, lemon, parsley, Indian gooseberry (amla), watermelon, grapefruit, skim milk and cottage cheese more often. Regular exercise is one of the best ways to lower blood pressure - brisk walking, jogging, swimming and athletics are good options. Laughter is the best medicine as it relieves stress and anxiety, which are the main causes of high blood pressure in modern life.

Five rules for preventing hypertension:

1. Lead a healthy lifestyle, which includes a rational balance of work and rest, walking, active movement (sports or yoga) and a normal weight.
2. Adjust your diet - after 40 years, it is ideal to become a vegetarian, but if this is difficult, then at a minimum you should remove red meat from your diet. Avoid fast food, fatty, overcooked, fried in vegetable oils, canned foods, marinades, refined foods (vegetable oils, premium wheat flour, sugar). Avoid store-bought processed foods, smoked meats, and sausages; they contain a lot of additives and salt that increase blood pressure. Choose fiber-rich foods: brown rice, nuts, seeds, wholemeal bread, fresh vegetables, herbs, fruits - to improve digestion and prevent constipation. Avoid snacking. Eat berries, they are rich in vitamins.
3. Establish normal sleep - put away gadgets at least an hour before bedtime, eliminate coffee, tea and alcohol, have dinner before 18:00. Best time to sleep: from 22:00 to 6:00.
4. Drink plenty of water, herbal teas with lemon balm, valerian, chamomile, and dried fruit compotes. Before bed - warm milk with spices (turmeric, nutmeg, cinnamon).
5. Relieve stress with meditation, breathing exercises, and relax in shavasana (a yoga pose for relaxation).
