Celery Seed Extract

I recently had some slight blood pressure issues from my current supplement cycle. While the symptoms of it were mild, any symptoms at all of this nature I do not take lightly.I have never experienced BP issues on any other supps or in general so I do not regularly take Hawthorne for this.

I bought Celery seed extract from a local vitamin shoppe (thier brand) and took 1500 mg (dosage on the label). I noticed signifigant relief from symptoms within hours. I have contiued this 1500 mg dose three times daily now for six days and have had no further symptoms, even with the raising of dosage of my cycle. Think I'll be adding this to my cycles from now on

It's great stuff for BP, has pain killing, anti-inflammatory and vasodialting properties as well.

There's an old thread on it around here somewhere.

I was thinking of trying it, but I heard it makes you pee a lot? Any truth to that?

very mild diuretic. The mechanism of action is relaxation of the smooth muscle fiber around blood vessels. It works very well. Just be certain to get one with a high 3nB content like this

I've been using that brand for almost a month now, 2 caps twice a day.
It's had little to no effect on my bp.

What were the symptons of the HBP ? I think I had
similar issues, which Cel Seed seemed to help, but I'm not sure as i never had it checked.
I'm close to your age as well.

No symtoms, I get it checked once a week by paramedics a block from my house (they do free checks every Tuesday) .
With or without the celery extract it read 148/90.

With hawthorne berry I was able to get it down to 122/76.
I'll be ordering more hawthorne berry.

Everyone is different. Hawthorn berry did nothing for me but CS and c12 peptides worked great for me. I switch between the two.

Aren't there a few different causes for high BP? If so, that may explain why different things work for different people.

It works quite well for me.
Here is a thread about it:
Celery Seed for blood pressure
 



size is a fictitious character.

Respect yourself and others will respect you.
