Would you keep your patients on bp meds if their lifestyle changed like eating clean and lost over 80lbs.. pressure. My pressure is below 120/80 it never gets that high it’s normal all the time. The meds makes it drop low then i get lightheaded. I walk 15 miles a day. I think i need to come off meds because it stay a lil low.it’s normal always. My practitioner. Don’t want to stop the meds but it lower it when i take it. Because its pretty low already. Like 93/63 82/52 101/60.. when i take the meds im lightheaded or very tired or miserable. It use to be high but it never over 120/ 80. These are the reading i normally gets. My practitioner is pretty young i feel like she don’t really know a lot.

[@julesclay8142]

Had an outpatient surgery recently. After the anaesthetic wore off, they gave me a cup of coffee to help me come back to life. Then, ten minutes later, before discharging me, they took my BP, which was an astronomic 180 (systolic, of course). When I took it three hours later at home it was 135. Goes to show how variable the measurement is and how subject to external influences.

[@evesperspective7662]

Great presentation! From my experience the measuring of blood pressure at doctors offices are not done correctly. When I took my mother to her doctor's office, she would be nervous about her weight and other things, and the first thing the nurse would do is stand her on the scale and take her blood pressure. After doing the normal procedures I asked the nurse to let my mother sit for a few moments and breathe slowly and take her blood pressure again. It was significantly lower. Definitely, the procedures should be changed at doctors offices. The very highest and best to all.

Drop in physical fitness, food intake, wrong diet led to High Blood Pressure. Since then I’ve been diagnosed with DM along with many other disabilities due to my service in the Marine Corps. Which was over 21 years. I’ve now been doing the things that I think is helping me. Losing weight, eating right, no fast foods, the right carbohydrates, sodium, protein, fiber and reduced sugar levels. Over the past two years I’ve lost 20 pounds to my current weight of 176-177.

My doc advised me to take BP meds because my BP was staying around 160-170 / 80-90. I did some reading and learned High BP is among the first signs of a "MAGNESIUM DEFICIENCY"! I started taking 500 mg's of Magnesium oxide in tablet form. Letting the tablet dissolve in saliva without swallowing it, crushing the crystals with teeth, massaging the crystals against the roof of the mouth etc., over a period of 15 minutes or so while watching TV lowered my blood pressure into the 115-120 / 70-85 range depending on the activity situation. Natural remedies exist for every situation! Most are aggressively hidden by the "PHARMA/MED", cartels to protect profit!! I'm 72, survived 2 strokes caused by following Doc's advice & swallowing toxic meds as well as curing at home, a hospital acquired "INCURABLE", Staph infection with garlic, turmeric and oregano.

I came across this video and got hooked on this presentation and then bang, right at the end Dr Baron mentions the connection between ACE inhibitors and high potassium. This is truly remarkable, the connection has never been made by different doctors I've seen over the years. Of course this does not necessarily mean my BP drugs are the cause of my high potassium but it's certainly a high possibility, one which I will look into. Perhaps I'll ask to swap my BP drugs for another one and see if my potassium goes down. Very interesting presentation and thank you Dr Baron.

I'm CKD too and potassium is way too high, however I've repeatedly refused to take the B/P meds my Dr. prescribed. I still have too high potassium because my kidneys are damaged & not able to flush out excess potassium. It's kidney damage that causes high potassium & phosphates, not the meds for high b/p.

Sportys Business I was a caregiver to parents and a grandmother for 20 years. Both my parents and my grandparents on both sides suffered from high blood pressure. All of them died from some form of heart disease (strokes, heart attacks, valve replacement). One grandfather passed from emphysema. All, except one grandfather and one great-grandfather who died in their 50s, took high blood pressure medications from about age 40. None of them were overweight. My father smoked one cigarette a day after dinner. They lived to ages 78-92, debilitated by heart disease and medications. They all had one thing in common. The Standard American Diet. Animal products at every meal. Eventually, eating animal products will catch up with you. I’m 59 and stopped 5 years ago consuming animal flesh. Then gave up dairy. You sound like you are younger than I am. You may “feel” better now. But if you continue to consume animal products, which have a cumulative effect, you will eventually have some illnesses that are the direct or indirect result of consuming animal products. You will inevitable end up taking prescriptions for these illnesses and maybe even need bypass surgery, etc. Trust me, it’s not worth it. By the time you see the full effects of consuming animal products, it will be too late for dietary changes to have much of an impact. There are ways to eat a vegan diet and still be healthy, have energy, etc. Think of the long term consequences of a carnivore diet. It won’t be good for you as time goes on.

If it is all over the place but at home, you're still low, don't worry about it. You're body is doing what is supposed to do. If it is high: -Stop eating all processed foods. Restaurant food is right up there. -Check your diet and fat intake such as high omega 6 oils. -Evaluate refined sugar/HFCS intake -Stress levels at work and home -Quality of sleep -Amount of exercise both resistance and cardio -natural blood thinners of water, vitamin C -removal of table salt from the diet and use Himalayan, Sea or Celtic salts.

When I'm aware of my pulse beating under the cuff, that makes me anxious and increases my pulse rate and blood pressure. "Talking" actually distracts me from the process and I get a lower reading. ANYTHING that distracts me works .. singing, humming, reading etc.

Great video! As an engineer, I take issue with the present measurement of blood-pressure anyway. It is well known in hydraulics that if the flow in a circulation (pump-driven) pipe system is restricted in any way - the pressure goes up. This effect can be readily seen if one restricts a running garden-hose for example by pinching the pipe - the pressure rises and the water jet goes further. The human circulation system works in a very similar way. If the flow is restricted (by squeezing under the wrap-around cuff for example) - the pressure in the flow goes up! Come on guys - it's just like the old accepted practice of putting grease on burns! A high blood-pressure measured in this way merely demonstrates how good the pump (your heart) is - not how bad your system is!

[@RepentfollowJesus]

Well if arteries are clogged it would lessen the flow too making the pressure higher.

I just want to point out, Dr. Baron introduced Dr. Robert Lustig in two video set on metabolism of sugar and fructose and its relationship to metabolic disorder and resulting obesity. Along with all the other problems associated with that, including hypertension. Those two videos are on the UCLA channel and really worth watching. But my point here is that these people calling Baron a shill are mistaken, because it's impossible he doesn't know about Lustig's work (given he's had Lustig in as a guest lecturer for his classes). And therefore, it's a good bet he understands the metabolic processes that drive insulin / leptin resistance, and therefore maybe he has something meaningful to say about hypertension here. Everyone kneejerking keto should reconsider the lens through which they watch this video. Also: TAKE NOTES. (especially the part about how to properly measure)

I have been on BP meds since i had a heart attack back in 1994. I have recently added a new Cardiologist who asked me to start tracking my BP at home using my own Omron monitor which takes my BP three successive times and gives me the average of the three. I have taken the log of my results to my Cardio but he never seems to be overly concerned about the numbers or pay much attention to them. I never knew i should do my test in the morning before i take my meds! I always test it in AM but i take my BP meds BEFORE I test myself. I will change that now but im aggravated about it because i do have heart disease and also type 2 diabetes and always worry about my BP as i age...now 81.After 15 years of daily blood sugar testing I'm going to stop that and just do my A1c which is currently 6.4% with 2 500mG of Metformin daily.

Dee: I fully agree with what you say. His lecture was great. It is ridiculous and unhealthy to try to keep everyone at such low numbers. I never listen to doctors when they are spouting nonsense or urging me to take a lot of medications that make me feel ill and that have questionable results. For example, I thought hormone replaement therapy was dangerous and I was proven right about that. I feel statins are dangerous, and I have been proven correct about that. Trying to reduce blood pressure to extremely low levels in an older person through many medications is also counterintuitive. I know that drug companies want to make more money by making more people dependent on drugs they don't really need. People have to engage in critical thinking and not blimdly follow what someone tells them to do. This video gives us information to help us do that.

I didn't listen to the entire lecture, but perhaps this was not mentioned. I used to be prescribed Lisinopril. But about a year ago I bought a home auto-blood pressure machine that was highly rated. It also averages the readings until reset. Of course it also does heart rate. I started taking my blood pressure every morning before coffee. What I noticed is that my blood pressure had dramatically decreased since the doctor started me on Lisinopril. At the doctor's office when he first prescribed, my bp was about 150-160 over 85-95. Not terrible. But in the past year my bp has averaged 125/75. WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED? About 1/2 year before I started taking my bp every morning, since I have been snoring loudly for many years, I took a sleep test. It found I have mild sleep apnea and I was prescribed a CPAP. Without doubt, the CPAP brought my blood pressure to the totally normal level!

One of the easiest and safest ways to bring down high blood pressure is by putting a plastic chair in the shower recess and sit down under warm, running water. It dilates superficial blood vessels, thus reducing stress on the lumen of major blood vessels. If possible, have someone nearby, just in case your BP drops faster than anticipated; that being said, you should be able to feel your BP dropping so you can get out before it goes too low. After you dry off, go have a sleep (if possible) ❤️

Great info! Thank you! Doctor tried to subscribe BP medication during an initial without really knowing me as a patient. I had to rush to get to his office after a stressful day. To top it off, I was nervous about meeting a doctor for the first time. Naturally my blood pressure was elevated when the nurse took my vitals. After sitting in the exam room for 10-15 minutes, the doctor walks in, greets himself and after scanning my chart, asked if my blood pressure is always so high. I explained what kind of day I had and that I was not interested in any medication as blood pressure is not always at the same and constant levels. He did check my BP before leaving his office and it was below normal. Don’t jump on the medication bandwagon! You can control BP naturally yourself. There are also natural herbs to help with controlling BP if needed. Eating a diet rich in dark raw leafy vegetables (8-10 cups) will also help. Lots of green veggies, low carb, with light to moderate protein. Drinking hibiscus tea as well as getting enough sleep and periods of rest during the day is also helpful.

However the result was not encouraging. Then I checked my blood. It was deficient in vitamin D. I started taking vitamin D as per doctor's advice without knowing if it has any effect. Then I started taking Magnesium 250 mg twice in week. Now my pressure is reduced to 140/90. Still high. Then as per my friend's advice I had started doing ANULOM VILOM pranayam. It's very easy. At first I did for two minutes per day, then slowly increased to five minutes per day. Now my BP is 120-130/75-85. It's under control considering I am 55 +. ANULOM VILOM is very easy to do and there are atleast a dozen utube videos avaliable on line. Anyone can do it. It's free of cost. I am not asking you to stop your medicine.

For the past 40 years my BP was around 210/110. It could go down now and then to 180/90-100. Now I'm 72 and relatively in good health. I know my kidney trouble that started in the late 60's is the cause of my perpetual high BP. My BP now is 193/97 pulse 53.

[@saraswatkin9226]

dsupanga, are you serious? You sound like a ticking time bomb. You should be on complete bed rest, salt and fat free diet, physiotherapy and investigations to identify the cause of your hypertension. Stress Is the bigger cause of hypertension.

Low fat? The body needs fat. But the good kind, natural fat. Quality meat and olive oil

A good talk by Dr Baron Universally less Salt(sodium) intake is a sure way to reduce high blood pressure ,coupled with medication 120/80 may not be achievable for people above 60 years of age ,and 140/90 could be the norm. More studies are required to establish the acceptable blood pressure for people above 60 years of age,where the issue could become acute in days to come

I have been taking 0ne oz/daily, in the morning, empty stomach first thing. Just like the Italians who have low bp, and have been doing this for centuries I’m told.

[@ianmcdonald8648]

me...same age. A month ago I got a HRmonitor. Some of these things I have been doing. Have been recording in a diary first thing in the morning in bed before sitting up, both sides, and often 2 or three timess unless it is low 125 or lower; also record after exercises or been out for a while, or walking, or at random times during the day. If I have a high read over 135, I double or triple the read. Aftr light varied exercises, 5 mins, 10 mins, or walking. Don't take any pharma medication and don't intend to. Don't need to lose weight. Don't eat much junk food. I am working on eating earlier in the evening, adn getting to bed earlier than I have most of the last ten years as a widower. I had a faint last November while talking to a friend in the carpark. He rang an ambulance. they flew me to Melbourne with a diagnosis of Bradycardia. They told me they were going to put in a pacemaker. They didn't ask me. But I declined for 3 reasons. They then told me I might faint; not resucitate; and can't drive. But I am having a local cardiologist check me out early April 21. Am using as much natural nutritional foods and supps as I can afford - and prayer to my Creator - Jesus Christ (Colossians 1 and John 1). I am expecting to have a good report in April and working towards a better physical me, even though I have been fairly healthy most of my life. I refuse to worry an dcast all my troubles on my God (1 Peter 5:7)

@@ianmcdonald8648 I’ve no idea if this is any help...... I was diagnosed with Sinus Bradycardia in December (waiting for further tests because I also don’t want invasive intervention as the primary cure). When feeling faint I start coughing and continue until I reach a safe place to sit down (avoiding any fall and potentially hitting my head on a hard surface). The coughing seems to stimulate my pulse rate (simply as a temporary solution until I can get more help). Wishing you all the best with your appointment in April.

After having started Hatha Yoga when I was 15 yrs - I was surprised to find my heart beat is no less than 120 beats per minute, which is alarming. So I take A 'TEN OL, which lowers the heartbeat to the 70s and 80 range if beats per minute. I can feel the difference of no sweating, and not feeling my hear pound. That's the only med I take besides vitamins and Dr prescribes the vitamins which saves me lots of $$. Do plenty of research, first, before taking any meds. Remedies have much to do with a better lifestyle andcting habits. I've had three major surgeries on my guts from age 25 - one 3 hours under the knife. The pain, sweating and shaking was unbearable and unhealthy eating and PLENTY of exercise was ALways in my everyday routine - from riding my bike 3 miles to college, lap swimming and school full time days and no less than a 37 hr work week as a cashier, at night. Get out once a day and don't over do but DO ! Find a probiotic yogurt that will help your body eliminate wastes. That is SO IMPORTANT! Take care of your body and it WILL return the favor !
