Hypertension is a disease which is usually interrelated with other health problems. The food, the stress and other diseases can cause hypertension. I think there is no long term cure from modern medicine. As told by my doctor, once you take hypertension drug you have to take it for life. I have been on it for more than 10 years and am still taking it......Now I want to try taking rice water.
Taking rice water is a cheap cure. No side effect and don't cost anything.
Commonly taken by all Asian. Chineses believe the water from washing the rice is "cooling" suggesting having Yin properties. The washed or rinsed water can be drank to contain hypertension.
Method:
1. Wash rice. First wash is usually too dirty to drink.
2. Rinse it once or twice then pour out the washed water.
3. Drink the rinsed water. Depending on the amount of water you use - drink all.
4. After 2 hours check your pressure. There should be improvement.
5. If there is improvement, continue drinking everyday when you wash rice.
Precautions : If the unboiled water for washing is not suitable for drinking then cook rice with extra water. Then when it boiled, scoop out the water and drink it.
Cook porridge everyday and put lots of water, so you can drink more of the rice water.
Three Basic Ways To Overcome Hypertension
1. Eat food that can soften blood vessels. Eg. Fruits, seaweed, mung bean sprouts.
2. Eat food that reduce blood pressure. Eg Banana, celery, persimmon.
3. Avoid animals fat and oil. Use plant oil that reduce cholesterol.
