You can try a cold water extract of the plant (you shouldn’t make tea from mistletoe). Use 1 heaped tsp for 1⁄4 liter (~8.5 fl oz) of cold water and let it sit in a pot over night (not aluminum). Strain it the next morning and warm it until it’s tepid. The extract is split into three cups during the day (not all at once!) Warning: mistletoe is a poisonous plant and must be used carefully!Garlic is known for its stimulating effect on the circulatory system and some say it also stabilizes blood pressure. Take 1 tbsp of cod-liver oil and 4 capsules of garlic every day. (Warning: never stop taking blood pressure medication without consulting your physician and get your blood pressure checked regularly)
