Quick note guys....If you are new to Gear a higher elevated blood pressure is to be expected. Unless your some fat dude on gear then who the hell knows? You have it all figured out. Steroids and Nutri System combo....Your on your way!

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet but sodium is another big one. Watch your sodium intake. The daily reccomended value is I believe 3000-3500 mg/day but cutting that in half would help reduce a BP as well. Maybe even limit yourself to around 2 grams of salt/day. Osmosis is basically what happens with high salt intake. Where salt or sodium goes water WILL go. Ever eaten a crap load of sunflower seeds and just felt fat and weighed about 2-3 extra lbs? Thats why. Where salt goes water goes and when there is more water weight on your body; just like when your holding water weight from T or dbol and the list can go on, it makes it harder for your blood to circulate easily through out your body and reach all the right places. Then your heart also has to work harder. All while this is going on you may not even feel it or have any effects. That is why high BP is called "the silent killer'. Imagine a garden hose. When you leave the hose alone the water flows naturally. When you need the water to travel further (comparing to the circulatory system here) you need to restrict or clamp down on the hose hence vasoconstriction and/or high BP. Sometimes you can do everything in your power to lower your BP and may even be doing everything right. In this case it is most likely hereditary and you may have to get on a beta blocker or some type of diuretic. Hope this made sense. Im kind of all over the place. Damn redbull.

I also forgot to mention resvertrol, green tea extract fish oils like T already mentioned and my secret weapon....lisinopril, just started it after years of high bp. After I started epo and gear my bp sky rocketed so I had to get on an ace-inhibitor.

I'm surprised no one had mentioned it here but Hawthorne berry works very well for me and its cheap as hell. I'm a 130/90 guy on gear and it brings it down 8 points or so at about 1000gm (two pills) a day. Just my tc.

I know this one sounds funny but I have heard about transcendental meditation having a profound impact. Match that up with cardio and a lower sodium diet and you can see drops in the range of 15-20 points. Throw in progressive muscle relaxation and you can get another 5 and 3 systolic diastolic respective point drop. These are reasons why countries that meditate frequently stroke and heart attack are lower in the cause of death ladder.

I have seen alot of posts about diet and cardio playing a major role in lowering your blood pressure due to juice. If you are not genetically predisposed to HBP and you are certain it's the gear, a good suggestion is to donate blood every 4-6 weeks. When I used to go to the clinic and get a shot a week, (total fucking ripoff BTW), I would give blood every 6 weeks. When you are on test your blood thickens and can cause a strain on the heart. This possibly leads to HBP and worse conditions. Just my 2C

I'm getting a BP monitor! Thanks for the post.

SIMPLY AND CHEAP= GOOD CARDIO IS GOING TO HELP YOU A LOT!::}}

Felt hat??lol
Just call Huggy Bear.
My Bp is up, and started cardio last week.
Keeping a cool head is vital. This is good info, and I'm taking notes. But just like the recent blood test blog here, it seems most of these guys are deaf and blind to anything but shortcuts.
