High Blood Pressure

[mccfluff]

I have been reading up this morning on causes and how to reduce HBP, and have got some ideas from that but im also looking for advice, hints/tips that you are doing that have worked?

eg. low sodium salt - is it worth buying?

That's two for the pomegranates then...... I see Sqad holding his head in despair. :-)

Fluff...knew it wasn't you but didn't realise it was the lodger. Forget the massage. Could be a step to far. :-0 x

lol but on this thread i am asking for advice from people who are actively seeking to lower their BP or have done so in that past and how they have done it. Im after ideas so if i can help foodwise then i will (and thanks for all those posted btw).

as for medical treatment he needs to go to his own doc and get treated by them

Hmmm Then do give the beetroot and pomegranate a try. I have used the beetroot for years but google for more up to date info. x

Thanks Iluvspikey for the tip about the high cocoa chocolate. Did some research on the net and went out and bought a load.

[ummmm]

Was that today, Edmund?

On Tuesday, yes. I am on Ramipril and monitor my bp at home but I'm going to try the high cocoa chocolate and daily banana to see if there's any further improvement.
