Suggest Remedy For High Systolic Pressure

I am 56, a diabetic for last ten years. My latest tests are v good. Hb1ac 5.6 and all organ functions fine. i did get a Cat 64 done 3 years ago as my triglycerides were very high . The scan revealed moderate to mild stenosis. But the specialist , even recently, may be because of my excellent all round results, have said that until there are any symptomatic problems, I need not worry. My sistolic pressure , of late has bee rather high.. between 155 and 170.. The diastolic is perfect. I go for regular one hour walks, dont smoke, do pranaam and yoga. what is your advice for me ?

Hello,

Please note that blood pressure should be controlled. You should take medication for blood pressure. Decrease salt intake up to 5 gm per day per person. Rest you are perfect.
