Garlic is one of the best natural medicines for high blood pressure. It works quickly because of a compound called Allicin, which relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow.
Why Garlic Reduces BP

Prevents arteries from becoming stiff or blocked
Controls bad cholesterol (LDL)
Protects the heart from stroke and heart attack
Works as a natural blood thinner (better circulation)
