I take heart pills, but only half of what my pharmacist gives. My mom's side of the family had low blood pressure, and that's what I have. But I definitely need the blood thinner.
When my problem began, if I would have gulped down all the pills, I wouldn't be here to complain. Some extremities were deadly white.
Doc says the heart receives quite a bit of oxygen from "backpressure", so anything below systolic 100/ dias. 65 is not right. I know nothing about high blood pressure, my problem is L O W pressure. Yet "they" would want me to take more meds..., it becomes a money question - for their bottom line.
For educational purposes only:
Toasted oat bran after main meal is beneficial, but even my dietician never knew that...too simple and no m0ney for big Pharma.
Beet juice great too lower pressure, wheat grass, soursop leaf, garlic and the top of the list : Apples !! rare fruit that has soluble fiber too lower cholεs tor0l.
Raw eggs great, hardboiled not so great (heat changes HDL to LDL). Stuff the docs won't tell you.
Relax and walk.
What's the cliché? An apple a day...
Gotta go for my constitutional walk. Adios .
