It depends on what the cause of your high blood pressure is if anything will do it any good.
All you can do is eat right, exercise, and take supplements that lower blood pressure. Hopefully your hypertension isn't genetic.

how tall are you? seems a bit underweight for a guy.
death,my friend, is the only solution.
...Don't eat? I have somewhat low to normal blood pressure, and when I'm dieting to the extreme I tend to nearly fall down because of how light-headed I get. Good times!
But seriously, your diet is a lot more important than your exercise. You could run 10 miles everyday, but if you eat transfats for dinner, the transfats win out. You would be healthier if you ate mostly raw vegetables and fruits plus whole grains (although cooked is not as great for you, it's definitely acceptable). Don't eat red meats or dishes high in sodium/salt. Stick to lean proteins like chicken breast and fish (deli meats are high in sodium, so avoid those).
Personal experience, my ex was freaking the hell out one time and thought he had a serious kidney condition, so he went to the ER. His blood pressure was something like 90/160 and I nearly burst into tears because I thought he was going to die. It turned out he was just stressing out too much, and his BP is only somewhat high normally.
Why didn't you ask your doctor? That would seem like the most logical thing to do.
