Forget the awful and endless side effects conventional blood pressure drugs cause, there’s something even more shocking about them – in most cases they don’t even work and fail to reduce blood pressure to a healthy level, leading us to believe that doctors have been misleading us this whole time.
But could it be that a cure to high blood pressure has been staring us in our faces this whole time? Could it be we’ve been taking these dangerous drugs in vain?
Apparently so according to new research released from Sao Paulo University in Brazil that states there’s a readily natural resource that can help us.
Hot aquarobics is what doctors have prescribed those people suffering from high blood pressure who don’t respond well to the drugs.
The study included 32 male and female participants, all of whom continued to experience high blood pressure above 90/140 mm Hg despite trying out three different medications.
They were split into two groups. One group did normal exercise routines while the other group was prescribed a ‘hot aquarobics’ treatment three times a week in water heated to about 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius).
Throughout the study, they continued taking their medication.
The people that didn’t experience a drop in blood pressure even though they took prescribed drugs all responded positively when they did aquarobics in warm water.
For this to be effective, the water should be considerably warm. Water at around 27 degrees Celsius or lower was found to be less effective. The heat of the water causes blood vessels to expand lightly, allowing blood to flow more freely, thus bringing down blood pressure.
