avoid foods that are salty or spicy. i would stay away from processed foods and freezer foods as these tend to have lots of salt and trans fats. i have been told by my doctor that garlic helps to lower blood pressure as well. my brother and i both started eating garlic when we were told this and both of us now have normal blood pressure again.
