There are a lot of people who suffer from high blood pressure. They sometimes pull the back bone and complain of dizziness. Usually, they are called “silent killers” because there are no obvious symptoms, but in serious cases, it can lead to cerebral hemorrhage, so it is recommended that you know and manage how to lower your hypertension. In this article, I would like to learn about hypertension and how to lower it. 고혈압 낮추는 방법
Silent Killer High Blood Pressure
1. What is high blood pressure? jasminevista.com
If the systolic blood pressure is more than 140mmHg or the diastolic blood pressure is more than 90mmHg, it is diagnosed as high blood pressure. The blood pressure can be temporarily increased due to stress, anxiety, and exercise, so it is judged based on two or more measurements.

2. How to Lower High Blood Pressure
1) Improving dyslipidemia and blood sugar levels
Patients with hypertension often have dyslipidemia and diabetes together.
Dyslipidemia refers to conditions in which triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol are excessively increased or HDL cholesterol is excessively decreased in the blood. It interferes with smooth blood circulation and lowers the elasticity of blood vessels, causing high blood pressure.
Diabetes refers to a condition in which a large amount of glucose is released into the urine due to a high level of glucose in the blood. High blood sugar causes blood to become sticky and interferes with blood circulation, causing high blood pressure.

2) Taking ‘Cocutene (Coenzyme Q10)’, a nutritional supplement to lower high blood pressure
Cocutene is a functional ingredient that is distributed in large amounts in the heart and helps to improve heart function and normalize blood pressure. It is a powerful antioxidant that helps to control blood lipid and blood sugar levels by preventing the oxidation of LDL-cholesterol in the blood, delaying the aging of blood vessels, and protecting the function of pancreatic cells.
Through the contents of the paper below, it can be confirmed that the intake of kocutene helps improve blood pressure, dyslipidemia, and blood sugar levels.

[Exam summary]
– Subject to trial: 101 patients with dyslipidemia (average age: 50.90±9.95 years)
– Test method: 120mg of kocutene intake or non-take for 24 weeks
– Measurement criteria: Blood sample collection
[Test result]
① Blood pressure
Twenty-four weeks after ingestion of kokuten, we can see a significant decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure and it can be seen that ingestion of kokuten helps to reduce blood pressure.

Twenty-four weeks after ingestion of kocutene, the levels of triglycerides and LDL-cholesterol were significantly reduced. On the other hand, the triglycerides in the non-absorbing group were significantly increased. It can be seen that ingestion of kocutene helps improve dyslipidemia.
Kokuten Improves Blood Lipid Levels ③ Blood Sugar
Twenty-four weeks after ingestion of Cocutene, it can be seen that insulin resistance and insulin levels were significantly reduced.
Insulin resistance refers to a condition in which insulin is secreted well but the function of efficient use has decreased. Increased insulin resistance leads to type 2 diabetes.
Insulin plays a role in controlling blood sugar levels by lowering blood sugar in the blood.
With improved insulin resistance in the group who took cocutene, insulin levels decreased, indicating that insulin in the blood is being used efficiently and helps improve blood sugar levels.

3) The way to lower high blood pressure is to walk and stretch
Barun Nutri’s special health counseling service designed by a Ph.D. in Pharmacy!
Walking fast reduces the hormone catecholamine, which increases blood pressure, and improves blood vessel elasticity through exercise, which helps blood vessel health. And it is said that stretching helps muscles relax and the decreased resistance of blood flow helps to lower blood pressure. Do walking and stretching exercises according to your health conditions. It helps improve blood circulation and high blood pressure.

4) Improving eating/living habits
① the act of eating blandly
Sodium increases osmotic pressure in blood vessels, so increased blood volume inflates blood vessels and increases internal pressure. Some of the main foods that increase sodium levels include salt, cabbage kimchi, ramen, and noodles. Eating bland is good for lowering high blood pressure.

② moderate alcohol consumption
If you drink a lot, you tend to lack potassium, magnesium, potassium, etc., which are essential components involved in blood pressure control. In addition, some blood pressure drugs taken by hypertensive patients have the effect of lowering blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels, and drinking alcohol can strengthen the action, which can cause side effects such as a sudden decrease in blood pressure and dizziness. When taking high blood pressure drugs, it is recommended to abstain from drinking, and in general, it is recommended to consume an appropriate amount of two cans of beer and two cups of soju a day.

③ quitting smoking
The nicotine component in cigarettes promotes the secretion of adrenaline, which constricts blood vessels. It is said that smoking two cigarettes raises systolic and diastolic blood pressure by an average of 10 mmHg.
