Re: the high blood pressure. Yes that's dangerously high. People who have blood pressure in the 170s are likely to have a stroke within the next few years. I'm a physician (neurology and critical care). Other than genetics, carbohydrate (not salt) is the most likely culprit for high blood pressure unless you have kidney disease. Salt is not likely the problem, neither is caffeine. Carbs cause insulin to increase which causes the body to hold onto water and salt and thus raise your BP. If you went keto your BP would drop like crazy, I guarantee you. If that's not a sustainable diet for you, you will need to find the right combination of medications. Hypertension is the silent killer and I see it kill folks every day at work. Take it seriously. The good news is you can still eat some tomatoes and avocados on a keto diet, give it a try! It takes about 3-4 days of strict keto for the BP to drop.
You my man, are correct. I’m a retired medical social worker, married to a retired Internist we are both and long time low carb, zero sugar consumers. 99% of our medical,issues are related to SUGAR. The whole medical cult has designed this for money and big Pharma. I’m ingest an. 1/8 of a teaspoon of salt under my tongue every morning to keep my sodium levels up. I tend to run on the low side. Keep educating others and thank you for your medical service to others.
@@MaryONeil-ks5me sure thing! let me know how it goes. i was on 2 BP meds myself in the past but was able to get off them completely with dietary changes and exercise.
as far as meds go, recommend trying amlodipine first since it has very few side effects and is once per day rather than 2-3 times per day, and is inexpensive. start w/ 5mg daily, can increase to 10mg daily after a month if needed. goal bp < 130/80.
Patrick, please take the medicine... you said the key issue.. ya don't wanna be here half of yourself and Mary left to deal with it. Praying for you to be healed... I'm holistic as well, but I would never mess with BP... Mary is right!! My goodness listen to the precious wife!
All of us who grew up in the 80s and 90s are carb/sugar addicts because we were told fat was bad and carbs were ok - so we ate bread, cereal, Coke, ice cream and pasta. Now we realize doctors were paid off to lie but we are all still addicted to sugar.
I am relieved that you took the blood pressure medicine. It is good to try to live "naturally," but some conditions cannot be treated naturally. I take two blood pressure pills every day, and it does the trick. My blood pressure is fine now. Cholesterol and blood pressure are the two major factors that can lead to a stroke. Please listen to Mary. Stay on your blood pressure medicine!! Love you both!!
Have you always been so talkative and jittery? You seem wired all the time😂 Maybe that’s why your Blood pressure is elevated? You are the Energizer Bunny❤️
I noticed the same thing when I started watching their videos, that he seemed hyper active. Talking and walking and breathing heavy and pushing that hair back out of his face the entire time. But he’s interesting and smart and I like to hear him talk. He’s got an honest open personality. And on top of it all it’s obvious he talented and could be whatever he wants to be. Sad that he got burned in some his business adventures, but I can see him getting it together again and going out in his golden years a success. Gotta stay on top of the High Blood Pressure, and don’t overdo the workouts because that can keep your blood pressure at elevated levels. Just enough is better. A more relaxed type of exercise is the best. Also bending over and lifting luggage isn’t exactly a good thing. It’s more of an exertion or straining movement and it stresses the heart. Walking, bicycling, swimming, yoga is all perfect for you.
I can relate to your situation. I'm also in recovery from Alcohol, am very active, a healthy eater, distrustful of western medicine, and I don't like being on pills. But I have also made a concession to take bp medicine, as well as very low dose depression med. I've tried quitting both meds, not simultaneously, and my body didn't adapt too well either.
You seem happy and have a beautiful wife, good for you man. I lost a Schmidt ton of money in the stock market, still trying to just keep pressing on hoping for better days.
Yea Patrick, I’m 61 and quit smoking a year ago and asked my doctor if I can stop my high blood pressure medicine. She said nope. I must take it for the rest of my life. It sux, but my readings are always good on the medicine and high when i go off for a few days without it. I’m just gonna shutup and take it.
Patrick, salt, primarily sodium, plays a crucial role in regulating blood pressure by influencing the balance of fluids in the body. When you consume excess salt, your body retains more water to dilute the sodium in your bloodstream. This increased fluid volume can raise blood pressure by placing extra strain on your blood vessels and heart. Over time, high salt intake is linked to hypertension (high blood pressure), a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases like heart attacks and strokes. However, the effect of salt on blood pressure varies among individuals, with some being “salt-sensitive” and more prone to these changes, while others are less affected due to genetic and physiological factors. Reducing salt intake can help lower blood pressure, particularly in those who are salt-sensitive or have hypertension.
I believe sir you are richer now than ever before my friend!!!!beautiful condo and wife. Hell man you could be on the street and be richer than most are!!!
I’m no dr, but I’d say, slow down, chill out, do less, live slower, cut down or out salt and sugar (in its many guises), and probably not eat so much. If you’re eating three avocados a day I’m sure you’re also eating a ton of other stuff, ie over-consuming. You look good, but you could definitely look better by doing most if not all that recommend. You’ll definitely feel better! Love you guys and love your channel. PS I’m 61 too, my resting pulse is 49-50.
Salt helps you hold water and it regulates your BP. It's the mega amount salt they use in meat and other foods to preserve it,along with processed foods. Salt doesn't give you high BP,it's the high protein and fat from things with wings and 4 legs. Eating avocados is 60% fat,it's healthy fat but wanna eat more starchy foods,like potatoes,beans,per meal.
Listen to me in 2008 Idid a stress test my MD said your a beast all looked good 3 months later a massive heart attack happened to me! Get that blood pressure regulated with medicine you are damaging your blood vessels as we speak and straining your heart! You seem like a great guy please take my advice from a cardiac patient!
Try keeping your feet flat on the floor situp straight and your arm relaxed on a table and your bicep same level as your heart or slightly above you will get a truer reading. Stay healthy love yiur vids.
Best way to take BP is sitting at a table with your arm lying flat on the table and both feet on the ground. To lower it try Intermittent Fasting! Worked for me (and quitting booze which was the number one culprit). But yeah, weight loss is a good way to lower it. And put ground flax seeds in your smoothies! 2 Tbl per smoothie a day or put it on yogurt.
please see a cardiologist immiediately that blood preesue level left unchecked will kill you! You can get some medication and adjust that simply please. I am a heart patient for over twenty years and these new medications do work!
Himalayan salt is great for diy body scrubs, though, as long as you moisturize after. 😊 My husband takes bp medicine daily and it controls his bp very well.
Man don’t play with the blood pressure take your medicine 💊. Don’t make your wife worry and stop the caffeine. You are like my mom. 👩 don’t want listening when the person love you the most make here stay with the heart on the neck. Talk with your doctor exist medicament that put your blood pressure down fast . Send you all the health and peace ✌️
You could have a partial blockage in an upper artery...which results in hbp. Your body is trying to perfuse the brain around a blockage...resulting in a higher BP. Just get an echocardiogram to see quickly if this is happening...otherwise you may stroke. Proteolytic enzymes will help thin the blood and remove calcium deposits...steady usage. Good luck....
Hi Patrick sit with your back straight and your legs not crossed arm same hight as your heart and you will get a much lower reading also check out breathing techniques that can rduce your BP good luck God Bless
Patrick, that salt you showed still has 2/3 of Sodium that "normal" salt has, that big of an intake is surely linked to your extremely high blood pressure. If you don't believe me, reduce your salt intake to half and then keep measuring your blood pressure daily and see what happens in a week. It's basic chemistry and physics, "Even though sodium is an essential mineral, too much of it can increase your blood pressure. Sodium pulls water into your bloodstream, but if there is too much sodium, it pulls in too much water. The increase in water increases the volume of blood in your blood vessels - more blood equals more pressure. " Our bodies want to keep a healthy ratio between salt and water, at such a high salt intake like you've shown in the video, one should likely have to drink two gallons or more of water a day to balance it, but that's just not practical to drink so much and go to the bathroom so frequently. I wish you stay healthy and happy :)
Hi there, I have a question: when you say you are broke and poor does it mean you don’t even have money for retirement or is only that you are not millionaires anymore? Just curious. Keep enjoying the good life guys. (Good for you for not listening to doctors nowadays) 👊
Maybe you’re overdoing it on the Baja salt - still has sodium in it - so if you’re eating enough you can be getting too much sodium and this can be jacking up the blood pressure
just make sure you get your IODINE from other sources if your Baha Salt has no added iodine in it, otherwise you will surely experience thyroid hormone issues. just a note: you mentioned that you stopped taking your blood pressure medication recently. Please make sure your extreme high BP numbers today is not related to that fact.
That salt intake raises your blood pressure. Get your kidneys checked with blood work. Don’t take blood pressure with legs crossed and don’t talk when doing it.😊 Your heart rate is too high.
His pressure way too high and he is almost laying down , both feet should be on ground and arm should be at same level as heart , need to sit down for about 15 min prior to taking pressure .

That is representative of a hypertensive crisis. If anxious/upset, it can be acute and pass but at rest, dangerous. Glad you took meds!

infra red sauna, more aerobic excercise too has helped my BP at 59 i ditched all meds 20 years ago....magnesium an a few other supplements may help

L- Citrulline and L-Arginine daily .
