High blood pressure is a condition that affects different types of people around the world. The condition varies from person to person; it can affect older people, diabetics, or others, and that is why remedies cannot suit everyone. High blood pressure and diabetes are metabolisms that are often linked to how we eat, which is why we need to adapt our diet according to the condition and avoid any excess. Modern medicine does not focus on what we eat, but rather on the disease and its medication, whereas prophetic medicine corrects our diet and gives remedies to complement our diet. Moreover, these remedies are given as general guidance, because to treat a person individually, one must know precisely what they have, with the opinion of doctors, their diet, their treatments, so that there is no interaction with the plant given as a remedy.
According to prophetic medicine, garlic helps in treating high blood pressure since it is an important vasodilator.
Walking will also help in treating this condition, and it is good to walk at least half an hour a day to keep the blood circulation working. Saffron is also useful, as it contains crocetin. Diuretic plants, such as fennel, will help people with high blood pressure.
What the science says: hypertension
What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for context — the studies address material causes, and healing belongs to Allah.
Hypertension
Garlic (J Nutr, 2016), magnesium (Hypertension, 2025), olive leaf (Phytomedicine, 2011) and pomegranate juice (Phytother Res, 2023) modestly lower blood pressure according to meta-analyses; reducing salt intake, reaching a healthy weight, walking and sleep remain the main levers. Precaution: these remedies can potentiate antihypertensive treatments — monitor your blood pressure at home and inform your doctor; never stop a treatment on your own.
