So I just got diagnosed with high blood pressure.
I know excersise and healthy food aka dropping weight, would help.
Q: are there any specific food/vegetables/herbs that could help bring it down?

garlic, onions and Leek-like vegetables usually get blood pressure down

I'm calling BS on this but If your BP is that high you need to go to the ER via ambulance or your gonna die very soon. Serious. If a Dr took that BP you would be sent straight to ER.
Get on some BP meds. Hibiscus is an herb that's good for BP.

; ) it's not. It was clickbait.
I do get medicine. But would rather eat me out of this plus excersise. Thanks for Hibiscus tip.

Hypertensionfag here.
It depends on what is causing your high BP. I have GAD and PTSD, there is no change in my diet that will fix that.
I guess standard things, though:
Avoid Fried foods
Eat tons of veggies
Avoid red meat

Hardly new stuff. Thanks anyway.

Way of living and most importantly family history. Dad and grandmother got it severely.

I live in a Texas college town don't think that's possible

Intermittent fasting

Thinking about it, it wont be a problem for me

Also fish oil, high blood pressure could either be from a high sodium/fat diet, dont need to abstain from them but just dont make it 80% of your diet.
Fasting is about giving your body time to regulate hormones and what not (a lot of other benefits if you look into it).

Juice 1 head celery, 1 green pepper, 1 cucumber, 2 limes, half bunch of kale. It dropped my SO's blood pressure within a few days and it continued to drop the following months. I got 110/58 from him just yesterday. He was never below 140/90 the whole year prior. It does get expensive but worth it. Some people do a whole juice fast but I don't think it's necessary unless you need to drop some weight too.
