If you are taking three or more drugs for your high blood pressure and still have poor control of your blood pressure, there may be a straightforward remedy. In one study, patients on three or more blood pressure drugs and poor blood pressure control, a two gram sodium diet caused a dramatic reduction in blood pressure.
The low sodium diet caused an average 23 mm reduction in systolic blood pressure and a 9 mm reduction in diastolic blood pressure.
