Hi Viji. A friend of mine had very high blood pressure and nothing was bringing it down....not medicine, salt reduction, caffeine reduction, zero alcohol....nothing. He was worried.
He started walking. He began with a half mile a day. Then a mile, then two. He began walking longer distances because he enjoyed it.
Within three months, his blood pressure was in the normal range. Mind you, he continued his medication and good diet. He was not much overweight, but from walking he also became quite trim. For Tom, walking helped where nothing else did.
