    Two weeks ago my blood pressure was 212/128 and I was taking extra blood pressure medicines. I started walking 5 miles every day. I changed my diet completely and this morning my blood pressure is 108/67 and I am completely off of blood pressure medicines. I can teach anybody to do the same. Stop all alcohol consumption. Stop eating all foods that convert to sugar like bread, rice, and potatoes, and stop your intake of salt. Increase your intake of avocados, walnuts, pistachios, hemp seed, and a high polyphenol count olive oil, eat lots of fish that is high in omega 3 oils, and green leafy vegetables. Consume 1 teaspoon of pure cocoa daily. Also, take a high-fiber supplement that is pure like psyllium hulls. Do not over-consume water. Do not take Metamucil as it does contain psyllium hulls, however, it also contains other ingredients that are really bad for your intake. The first week you will feel bloated from the high-fiber diet, however, that will pass and the high fiber will lower your cholesterol. Another benefit you will receive is your arthritis (which is only inflammation) will go away. High blood pressure can be completely controlled by diet. I hope this helps and good luck to you. Bottom line. Lower your sugar intake, increase your fiber intake and lower your blood pressure. it's that easy!

    I had high blood pressure; cholesterol and pre- diabetes. I eliminate extra salt, sugar and fat. I look for the list of fruits that spikes the sugar, eliminate them, I Cooke and instead of salt I use natural spices like chive, cilantro, garlic…., for the fat I canning the lean meat. Before I use that meat I scoop all the grease out and decant it. In less than 3 months all three of them went down. Now I have my garden eat and canning the rest!

    Purchase a good blood pressure monitor (With a sleeve) and check your pressure often at home. Came in handy for me several months ago. My pressure was 190 / 110 and after several tries I used a second monitor and the readings were the same. I then went to the emergency room and got checked out. After returning home, I reviewed everything I'd been consuming for the previous days until I discovered that the source of the problem was Altoids ( The curiously strong mints). I had been gorging on those mints for days. I googled the candy and learned that excessive amounts of peppermint will spike blood pressure.

I tell my self and others “ Let thy Food be your Medicine and let thy Medicine be thy Food”. I finally heard one Dr. from Cleveland Clinic say this same quote. I was pleasantly surprised and happy to hear this coming from a Dr. instead of pushing Rx .😊

    Today is October 20, 2021 so I am seeing this several months after you recorded this podcast/video. It's waaaay past attending your program. Although I saved this presentation, I'm interested in buying the two books on the counter. I would like to memorize the entire video because I learned so much just listening. I want to learn more. Here's some stats on me: I was 5' 1" and I'm down to 4' 11". I'm only 67. Most recent Dr. appointment was yesterday. BP was 130/80. Weight was 285!!!!!
    I "accidentally" stumbled onto your podcast and I firmly believe that God works in mysterious ways. I had already decided that today would be the first day of the rest of my life! Then I found you. I don't like sweet potatoes and have never tried avocados but I am more than ready to step out of my comfort zone. HELP!!

      Well I just watched a speech from 3 doctors who says it does raise your bp and that it is social media misleading people. But I do know too much salt bad for your liver and most people don't know that. I eat blue salt and pink salt no freaking Morton table salt.....that's what raises it. My blood work is always slightly low in salt. My potassium is always normal

    I enjoyed this video so much. Such a great amount of genuine information that anyone can use right now. I copied the information for the best foods (many are my favs!) and a screen capture of the No-Fail Smoothie Guide. I will be going back to get the Double Orange Smoothie recipe; might need to get the oranges though I have all the spices. Thank you so much for sharing.
    I checked out the sample recipes in the "Store" link. I think I'm in love with her cookbooks, everything I saw looks incredibly delicious . I'll wait until after the Christmas rush to order them but wow, I can hardly wait. Skimming through, I see that she has not eliminated whole areas of food like no meat or no grain but rather put them all in proportion to what is truly healthy. I saw recipes for zucchini bread, pizza, and other real food along with fabulous salad and other veggie goodies that I can't wait to try. Some things (raw foods like salad) I'll have to wait until my dental work is completed but I can certainly compensate with smoothies for a while. Everything in either book is so doable. No, I'm not a shill, but I see from the sneak peeks that she will give clear guidance so you can accomplish your health goals.

    Just discovered your channel this morning. I found out recently that I have high blood pressure, around 146/85. I am hoping to avoid meds if I can. One person commented that you’re taking too much time talking. She wants you to get right to the point. At first, so did I, lol. I just wanted to know which THREE foods. But, as you talked and explained about salt intake vs potassium, the variety of foods, etc. AND with your excitement and flair while teaching, I felt like a thirsty sponge, taking in all this valuable information. Knowing all the info BEFORE going to the store, before changing lifelong eating habits, will really help in putting a new and healthy ‘diet’ together. I’m excited to change my over salted, over sugared diet. I’m scared of my blood pressure getting totally out of hand. No way (unless I have no choice) do I want to take meds. It would seem so ridiculous to take meds WHILE continuing unhealthy eating, because in the end…one is going to overcome the other. Thank you Zonya, for bringing this information to us in energetic detail, making it so enjoyable to hear and learn.
