There are studies showing that vitamin E may help to lower blood pressure, however Vitamin E can actually cause a temporary increase in blood pressure if a person starts taking more than 400 IU per day.
Many people avoid this by taking smaller amounts of vitamin E and working up to the higher dose. Taking vitamin C may actually help to lower blood pressure.
Do not take large doses of vitamins other dietary supplements if you are taking any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Can taking vitamins C and E raise blood pressure?
