Many herbs have been used successfully to control high blood pressure. Blood pressure is the pressure on the walls of blood vessels as blood is pumped through them. The factors contributing to this condition may be smoking, alcohol abuse, obesity, high salt intake, lack of exercise and stress. It can also be genetic.
