First things first..., let's look at some current numbers:
  1. In the United States, an estimated 1 in 3 have high blood pressure, and 1 in 3 have pre-hypertension. (PS: Hypertension is the medical term for high blood pressure. Both terms mean the same thing)
  2. Elevated blood pressure is a key risk factor for cardiovascular disease and stroke
  3. Several factors can play into the accuracy of blood pressure reading: cuff size and placement, body position, machine calibration, stress, smoking and consumption of caffeine or alcohol just prior to the reading
  4. Drug-free strategies that can help you regulate your blood pressure include a low-sugar diet, exercise, boosting nitric oxide production using nitrate-rich foods and exercise, intermittent fasting, essential oils, stress reduction and much more

Blood pressure is the force needed to push blood through your arteries coming from your heart to deliver oxygen-rich blood to your body. When your blood pressure is measured, you get a high value (systolic) and a low value (diastolic). The high number is the highest pressure that occurs in your blood vessels while your heart is contracting. The low value is pressure in your arteries between heartbeats when your heart is relaxed.

A 120/80 is considered normal and healthy. As stated above, 1 in 3 have high blood pressure in the US. Recent research suggests hypertension, especially elevated systolic pressure, may also raise your risk of dementia. Also, having an elevated average systolic blood pressure puts you at greater risk for brain lesions and tangles associated with Alzheimer's disease.

Here a number of factors contributing to high blood pressure:
  • Insulin & Leptin Resistance
  • Elevated Uric Acid Levels
  • Poor Nutrition in Childhood
  • Lead Exposure
  • Air & Sound Pollution
  • ... To name a few ...

What can you do you ask?

Diet is huge. One of the most important dietary changes you can make to improve high blood pressure is to eliminate or considerably decrease sugar, especially processed fructose, in your diet. Another dietary illicit is trans fat, which is responsible for atherosclerosis (hardening of your arteries).

The easiest way to put both of these bad-boys out is to replace any processed foods with real, whole, organic foods. Don't add any extra sugars to any food you eat. Find wild caught Alaskan salmon, beets, arugula, kale, butter leaf lettuce, and spring greens for example. These are just a few suggestions to help you with hypertension.

If you need a more personalized plan, please contact us today. It's all about adapting your lifestyle, make some simple but very powerful changes and you'll be in a better and healthier place in a few months.
