How soon after you start cutting down your sodium intake will you notice an improvement in blood pressure? |

Answer
You may or may not experience a decrease with just reducing your sodium intake. Sometimes you will just need a BP lowering medication. But as your doctor will no doubt tell you, lower your sodium, increase your potassium and exercise to loose weight if that seems appropriate. If that doesn't help within a few days, get medical attention for high BP. It's a serious condition that must be treated in order to avoid serious and possibly fatal complications.
