Question: Looking for something to assist in lowering blood pressure. I had a DOT physical today and I’m 164/90. Since I’ve never been that high before the doctor is giving me a three month grace period to lower it. I am about 40lbs overweight and intend to address my diet seriously but in the meantime, I’ve made and appt to see my family physician in 3 weeks and sure would like it to be noticeably lower by that time. What natural remedies (that work) would you suggest. I intend to search the internet after I send the email to you. Please respond ASAP…..Thanks, Terry
Answer: Terry,
I wish it was that simple! Why is your blood pressure elevated in the first place? Is it an issue with: weight, salt, lack of exercise, nutritional deficiencies, diabetes, pre-diabetes, stress, kidney problems, sub-acute infection, heredity, atherosclerosis or is it a combination of one or more? Get my drift. Picking a product off the net or having me make a blind recommendation, would be a guess at best.
If you want to do it right, you can become a distance client of mine. (In a nutshell) I will send you the forms and you send your test results, we have a consultation over the phone and I design a personalized diet, exercise and supplement plan. If interested, you can contact my office for initial fees and follow-ups. I have done this for 18 years and have seen many……… in the exact same situation.
Sincerely,
Marcus Ettinger DC, BSc
