I'm a 46-year-old guy who's a bit on the heavier side. I've always been healthy, but lately, they've told me I've got hypertension. I'm not a fan of allopathic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term side effects. Do you have any natural treatment options for dealing with hypertension?

I'm really worried because my heart rate seems to shoot up when I'm stressed. Sometimes it even hits between 160 to 180 bpm. What can I do to get it back to normal? Any tips on how to reduce my heartbeat when this happens?
Increased heart rate due to tension can be concerning. To help reduce your heart rate, you can try deep breathing exercises and relaxation techniques. Additionally, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25mg once daily. It can help lower your heart rate and reduce the effects of adrenaline on your heart. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
