Since most cases of High Blood Pressure are caused by difficulties with our metabolism, IMHO, then anything that we can do to improve our metabolism, will result in healthier blood pressure levels. Both healthier diet and exercise improves metabolism, which provides healthier levels of blood pressure.

My doctor gave me a prescription for medicine, but I really don't want to take it because I've heard that once you start you have to be on it for the rest of your life. I'm female, 5'2

You only would have to take a medication, if it is medically necessary. If you have unhealthy blood pressure and cannot control it through diet, exercise and lifestyle changes, then you would probably WANT to take a medication that would give you healthier blood pressure levels, right?
