Good morning Dr Frita. Thank you so much for this information.... Batteries that you mention I love especially blueberries, apples, bananas, watermelon, mangles is one of my favorites and pomegranate, but I had no idea it would be helping you with your blood pressure. I'm fairly new to your channel and this is my first comment. I would like to ask a question please. If the doctor said that you are a borderline diabetic..... What is the best thing to do for that so that you do not become a diabetic. Love you may God continue to bless you and always looking forward to seeing you next videos. You have a blessed day 🙏😊❤️

@313dreamin98 ай бұрын
That's roughly normal. Blood pressure between 120/80 to 140/90 is actually normal. Higher than that is where you encounter serious issues. You're hovering near high blood pressure though and should lower it asap.

@heleneikerenkotter29508 ай бұрын
So many of these fruits are very high in sugar and if you are a Diabetic 1 or 11 you need to check them out carefully and not eat with great abandon. Many people with diabetes can also have kidney issues and excess sugar can do further harm. They are all so delicious but knowing how much to eat and which ones to eat sparingly is very important . You are correct about pineapple, bananas and watermelon. I eat grapefruit at the opposite end of the day and take my blood pressure medication at the other end. As long as there is at least 6 hours separation you are not doing harm. Just never take them at the same time. Grapefruit intensifies the effects of blood pressure medication. I would not take any medication the same time that I eat grapefruit.

However, I'm allergic to citric acid fruits, and non citric acid ones that have citric acid in them like many berries according to online reports. I already eat apples and bananas and will increase their amounts, and add watermelon along with cantaloupe I often eat. Thanks for your video. Annie Hudson-McKnight

I've been talking to my doctor, and they put me on new blood pressure medication. Since starting it, I've noticed my eyesight getting worse. When I wake up around 4:00 AM, it feels like I'm seeing "snow" in my vision-kind of like that static gray screen when the TV is off. Millennials will know what I mean, lol. On top of that, my medication dosage keeps getting increased, and the side effects are becoming unbearable. I feel sleepy and fatigued all the time, and sometimes I get dizzy. Before this change, I used to take minoxidil and clonidine. Minoxidil made me grow a lot of hair on my body and face, turning my baby face into something like a wolf-man, haha. But these new meds feel like they're killing me slowly while keeping me alive at the same time. I've also started to notice pain in my body, and it feels like my nerves are going haywire. I'm willing to try anything, so I'm giving a fruit diet a shot for two weeks to see if it helps. I've tried other fruits and teas before, and while they helped a little, it wasn't enough. I'm desperate at this point. I'm diabetic, on dialysis, and have heart problems from high blood pressure. Honestly, I figure if I'm going to die anyway, I might as well try to improve my quality of life however I can. It feels like every time I talk to a doctor, they just want to keep me on meds or add even more. I know this because two of my uncles are doctors-one's a foot surgeon, and the other's a back and spine surgeon. They’ve told me that doctors get a percentage of the medications they prescribe, and that’s why they're so eager to push more drugs on patients. I'm fed up with doctors and ready to live life on my own terms, free from all these medications. I’ll give this diet a two-week trial and see what happens. After that, I’ll decide whether to keep going or not. I'll keep you updated if you want.
