Here is the least expensive way I know of to control your blood pressure and cholesterol. And you can do it in the comfort of your own home.
Researchers in the Philippines performed a small study on 15 patients with high blood pressure and high cholesterol. The researchers gave each of the patients a cup of green tea to drink three times a day after meals. None of the participants were green tea drinkers before the study.
After only one week, the groups average blood pressure fell from 130/87 to 117/81. After two weeks, it was at 118/80. And the groups total cholesterol dropped from 235 mg/dL to 187 mg/dL.
I am a huge fan of organic green tea. Its a beverage you can drink as part of your daily routine.
