Even the Mayo Clinic doesn't seem to have the ability to create a diet that could reduce your high blood pressure. Who the hell out there can do that? All it would take is some additional research proving amounts needed.

Go to the link to see the complete listing from Mayo. My links were added in here because Mayo was totally incomplete.
Here are 10 lifestyle changes you can make to lower your blood pressure and keep it down.
1. Lose extra pounds and watch your waistline
2. Exercise regularly
3. Eat a healthy diet.
Nothing here is clinically proven, don't do it. These are my findings of research in the literature.
4. Reduce sodium in your diet
5. Limit the amount of alcohol you drink
6. Quit smoking
7. Cut back on caffeine
This one has this statement in it:
They performed the most rigorous investigation to date, a randomized,
double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study that found that
caffeine significantly improved endothelial function. I'm assuming that improved function would actually reduce blood pressure, but don't listen to me.
8. Reduce your stress
9. Monitor your blood pressure at home and see your doctor regularly
10. Get support
Sometimes I wonder if there is anyone in the world that understands what needs to be done to prevent and solve strokes. Mayo Clinic obviously does not.
