Doc,
What is the action of parsley as a hypotensive herb?

I can tell you for sure that it (parsley) acts as a diuretic. Less fluid to pump, helps decrease pressure.

Yes. It’s a good diuretic which helps. It also has some vasodilating effects to relax vessels and some calcium channel effects (many blood pressure meds are calcium channel blockers).

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
