In some cases the company you work for will cover the associated expenses, but there are cases where your personal insurance company should pay for it! So, I advise you to read well the fine print on the bottom of your contract!
Foods That Can Help you Lower Blood Pressure for Your DOT Physical Exam
What can help prevent or normalize blood pressure for taking the DOT Physical Exam is a diet low in sodium but in same time rich on magnesium, potassium and calcium. This diet is known as the DASH diet.
One thing that always works for me, when I need to lower my blood pressure is the beet juice! I had read online a while ago, right before taking my DOT Physical exam, on one of the numerous trucker forums that the nitric oxide found in beets relaxes blood vessels and dilates them.
That helps the blood flow more easily and lowers blood pressure. So I tried and YES, It works for me! Within three hours of drinking beet juice I had my pressure normalized. But I am not advocating doing this as a way to cheat the test.
