Let's Talk About Me And How You Can Reverse Your High Blood Pressure Measurements

Here's An Idea Worth Considering, Could You Improve Your Cardiovascular Health?

My about me journey is also about you lowering your risk of dying young from high blood pressure or suffering complications and living a life dependent on someone or in a nursing home. This disease is reversible and might even be preventable if you sincerely want to do the work by taking certain steps. 

About Me

Hi, I am Donna, and I was diagnosed with high blood pressure right after my Mother died from ovarian cancer in 1996. Though my diagnosis was at a painful time I also look at it as a blessing.

You see high blood pressure rarely makes itself known in the early stages. Most times after years of silently doing its damage to the brain, kidneys and heart, and you are experiencing health issues before being diagnosed.

Within a year of taking Diovan blood pressure medication I developed a dry hacking cough. This was ongoing for nine months before I was able to get rid of it through a friend simply applying acupressure to my lung channels as the start of my relief that lead to me having acupuncture consistently.

My about me and my high blood pressure journey, the different medications I have taken, their side effects, my allergic reaction, and my many alternative treatments have transformed me into living a healthier lifestyle. 

You should know that hypertension is the third leading cause of death worldwide. The higher your blood pressure, the shorter is your life expectancy. Become aware of how obesity contributes to this disease and also of the many changes happening within your body after starting your medications.  And, it is important to express your concerns with your doctor. 

 

Also of great importance are some things your doctor may not tell you about hypertension and high blood pressure – did you know there are differences?

High Blood Pressure Medical Research

Medical research states that up until the age of sixty, women were less likely than men to develop high blood pressure, though by age sixty women take the lead. You should know hypertension strikes one out of three Africans, as compared to one out of four Caucasians.

Since I am a woman and also a woman of color from a Caribbean country, I am best suited in helping women struggling with weight issues, managing chronic lifestyle diseases; discover foods and lifestyle choices that have them living within healthy guidelines, boost energy and improve overall health.

Me And My Medication Side Effects

My body did not adjust well to the side effects of taking diuretics. Everything about me changed. I was dizzy all the time, my legs and tongue would swell, and I developed a persistent cough.

I was constantly having my prescription changed because of all the different side effects. I did not like how I was feeling, so I started researching about different medications that controlled blood pressure, their benefits and side effects; and also on what alternative measures were out there.

Nutrition And Alternative Treatments

Initially it was all about me, focused on the improvement of my health. I researched practically everything about this insidious disease, studied nutrition and the effect it had on my body's insulin, my blood sugar levels, and what the body needed to stay healthy and vibrant. 

I went further in my research and learned the basic concepts in dietary nutrition, how overall health and in particular obesity is driven by dietary composition - the biology of foods.

In 2018 I completed a year's study program at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.  I wanted to be able to help myself, to heal the body using the foods I eat, along with my doctor's supervision.

It's true we are what we eat. It took some time and determination to find what works and that medication is not the only way to lower high blood pressure and lose weight.

There are many studies stating vegetarians have lower blood pressure levels than non-vegetarians, and that they tend to develop hypertension less often.  I am not saying you are to go vegan because I am not one, but I am just making you aware of the different ways individuals can control their blood pressure.

A very high percentage of individuals around the world are now overweight.  Researchers have stated that if you were overweight, say since your early twenties, you're significantly more at risk of developing hypertension.

Now let me ask you a simple question after learning so much about me? Will you today, more than ever, join my 30 days live online program on how to overcome high blood pressure and stimulate your own healing process?
