The pressure that is caused when the blood flows in the vessels is called as blood pressure. This is dependant on the pressure that occurs during the pumping of the heart. The pressure during contraction is more compared to the pressure during expansion.
For a normal man the blood pressure during the contraction has to be 120mm Hg and during expansion it has to be 80mm Hg. The changes in our body immediately influences the changes in the blood pressure.
The blood pressure will be more for those who have crossed the age of 40 years and those who are fat and for those who are working in a stressful job. If this is not treated immediately it may cause danger to life also.
To maintain the blood pressure in the correct levels, Siththars have told certain ways. The best part of these methods is that they are simpler and cheaper.
Take the roots of the sarpagandha plant and make it like into a sooranam* and if we eat it then blood pressure could be controlled says Theraiyar.
Take the white lotus and cut it into tiny pieces, and add half a litre of water and boil it till it comes to 1/4 measure and by add honey to it and if we consume it in the morning and evening then the blood pressure could be controlled says Pulipaani Siththar. He also says that by eating the mulai leafy vegetable the blood pressure could be controlled.
In the next post I shall meet you with another remedy.
