90 of blood pressure is called essential

hypertension and they don’t even know

what causes it after all of this

research today I’m going to unravel

blood pressure and give you some natural

solutions that may have a lot less side

effects than medication of course check

with your doctor before implementing any

of these Solutions so you have about a

hundred thousand miles

of blood vessels in your body well that

is a lot of blood vessels and these

blood vessels do go to many locations in

your body many organs in fact all of

your organs receive blood from your

vascular system and so the problems of

blood pressure extend Way Beyond just

the vascular system Way Beyond just your

heart it can affect the brain it can

affect your eye it can affect the kidney

increasing your risk of getting heart

attacks and it definitely increases your

risk of getting a stroke by a factor of

3x and blood pressure problems are very

common if you’re over 60 you have a 50

chance of getting hypertension to me

that is just way way too high now

hypertension can also be compensating

for various things for example if you

have hypoxia let’s say in your lungs you

have COPD you have a lung problem where

you don’t have enough oxygen the body is

going to automatically sense that and

start increasing blood pressure to get

more blood in the area to get more

oxygen low oxygen situation in another

place so when someone then takes

medication to lower the blood pressure

what happens to the lungs right it

already is not getting enough oxygen now

it’s really not going to get enough

oxygen so this is one reason why people

don’t really feel good many times when

they get on blood pressure medication

especially in the brain because it

creates other issues I mean I think a

really important question would be to

understand why you have high blood

pressure in the first place and this is

just not emphasized very well it’s more

like well you have this disease we don’t

really know what it is take this

medication for a while you know drink

more water get more exercise

etc etc from my viewpoint there’s

several common reasons for blood

pressure low potassium

low magnesium

and low vitamin D levels so if I had

hypertension those would be three things

that I would look at immediately but

instead in the medical profession you’re

told to restrict sodium that is the

primary focus not to increase potassium

to reduce sodium and if that doesn’t

work then the next thing to do is to

give you a water pill a diuretic

primarily they use a common one called

Hydrochlorothiazide this is a diuretic

it gets rid of fluid and the sodium in

the fluid but it is also

a silent depletor of potassium so now we

end up with lower amounts of potassium

and a potassium deficiency could be the

reason why you have high blood pressure

in the first place now we go from low

potassium to extremely low potassium so

therefore this can be more beneath for

medication and of course when we talk

about potassium they may recommend

potassium but unfortunately potassium

only comes in 99 milligram pills or less

and the requirement for potassium is

quite high it’s like 4 700 milligrams

and you have these pills that are 99

milligrams

okay how many times this 99 or let’s

just round it off to 100 go into

4700 okay you do the math you’d have to

have a lot of pills but this diuretic

also depletes

magnesium the other common reason why

people have high blood pressure another

side effect of this diuretic is the

increase of homocysteine now if that

doesn’t work there’s always the calcium

channel blockers okay those are

medications for high blood pressure as

well just working from a different angle

the problem is it has some slight minor

complications if you take it chronically

over five years it can have a tendency

to shrink your brain it also tends to

increase your risk of certain types of

cancer and in one study as far as the

effectiveness goes they compared it

against other medications that lower

blood pressure and it really only

brought your blood pressure down by 0.1

that’s only like one tenth of one point

okay so to me that’s pretty

insignificant then you have other

medications like the ACE inhibitors the

problem is with that one it does

increase the risk of getting allergies

or even being allergic to the medication

significantly also it can create a

chronic cough as a side effect now I’m

not sure if you got the recent memo

about aspirin they finally found out

that it doesn’t really give you

um many good benefits the outcomes are

not that great and this was in Jama

aspirin myocardial infarction study

research group they found that the

aspirin a day has no benefit now there

was another study that rekindled

recommending aspirin taking an aspirin a

day but they didn’t even use aspirin

they used bufferin okay which is a

different type of medication and that

had magnesium oxide okay magnesium

actually helps lower blood pressure and

they also had added some beta-carotene

so who knows what was causing what

there’s something else that you should

know about it’s called nitric oxide

nitric oxide greatly supports

the inner layer of the arteries okay it

helps to lower blood pressure because

it’s a vasodilator some people even try

to increase it to handle their erectile

dysfunction because that’s a vascular

problem you see we’re so focused on the

arteries but it can affect a lot of

things you’ve probably heard of even

vascular dementia because of what it can

do to the brain we have an enzyme that

helps make nitric oxide okay and that

enzyme can be inhibited or turned off to

a certain degree by a genetic variation

problem so if you have this problem you

might not have the benefit of that

enzyme to make nitric oxide thereby

developing hypertension and you can get

a test to evaluate if you have this

problem there’s a couple ways to do it

you can look at a DNA test or even get

this other test it’s called adma and

that stands for asymmetrical dimethyl

Arginine so getting a test will tell you

very quickly if you’re making enough of

this nitric oxide now the solution that

I would recommend that has very minimal

side effects if any is just to go out

and buy some L-Arginine L-Arginine will

help you make more nitric oxide so you

can just include that as your protocol

for helping yourself with this high

blood pressure situation another really

good natural remedy for high blood

pressure is garlic garlic can act as a

natural ACE inhibitor as well as

increasing this nitric oxide another

really good food to take if you have

high blood pressure is celery celery has

a couple powerful phytonutrients that

can help lower blood pressure and reduce

adrenaline so it helps you sleep it

helps your blood pressure you’d want to

take like four stalks of the celery

maybe with your last meal of the day and

you’ll find that you’ll actually get

some benefit from that now to support

the endothelial layer of your arteries

tocotrinos is one of the best remedies

for that that’s the type of vitamin E so

when you think about anything

um damaging the inside of the artery

think tocatrinos and tocatrinos are

really good for Angina heart problems

but especially to help act as a powerful

antioxidant for the inside layer of your

arteries let’s summarize everything so

we have potassium magnesium where can

you get that

from salads okay larger amounts of

salads on a regular basis you can also

get these in electrolyte powder as well

vitamin D3 you can get that from the sun

it’s very hard in the winter so start

taking vitamin D3 that might just handle

your blood pressure but you need to take

at least 20 000 IUS every single day

start including garlic in the diet

celery and don’t forget about the

L-Arginine okay you can get in a powder

and maybe take a half a scoop or even a

whole scoop each day okay to help

increase nitric oxide and those

tocotrenals that might come in handy to

support the inside layer of your

arteries but realize that you also need

to handle the foundational problem of

your diet and for information on that I

put that video up right here check it
