Is it possible to lower blood pressure quickly? What do the experts recommend and what should you avoid?

The bracelet error that inflates the numbers

If the cuff is too small for your arm, the machine will overtighten and give a false reading.

Golden rule:
You should be able to fit  two fingers  between the bracelet and your arm before inflating it.

If they don’t fit, you need a bigger one.

The exercise that strengthens your arteries

It’s not to lower the pressure at that moment, but to  prevent it from rising again .

It’s called isometric exercise.

How to do it

  1. Grab a rolled-up towel or a ball

  2. Squeeze with your hand at 30% of your strength

  3. Breathe normally

  4. Hold for 2 minutes

  5. Rest

  6. Repeat 4 times

  7. Do it 3 times a week

This causes nitric oxide to be released when it is released  , a substance that dilates and repairs arteries.

Over time,  it makes them more flexible .
