High Blood Pressure and False BP BloodPressure Medical Lies! What Does Dialectic Mean? Is it True?

Holistic Way

A Holistic Doctor thinks of blood pressure acutely differently than a Conventional Doctor.

A Holistic Doctor will usually tell you to drink a lot of water to lower your Blood Pressure to an average reading and advise you to eat raw garlic and vegetables with most meals. Moderating your sodium intake always helps.

Your Blood Pressure is usually a sign that your bowls aren't working properly. You should have a complete bowl movement after every meal. If you do not have a bowl movement after every meal, your blood pressure may increase.

Lack of bowl movements makes your Low Density Lipoprotein rise because the extra cholesterol in your cells aren't being removed fast enough and it begins to accumulate in your blood vessels restricting your blood flow which creates pressure on your pumping heart. Hence the term high cholesterol comes into play.

Regularly exercising and staying hydrated with half your body weight in ounces will help in lowering your blood pressure. You need to be eating food with lots of fiber and omitting unhealthy food. Choose low or non fat dairy foods consuming 2 to 3 servings a day, limit animal protein to lean cuts of 6 oz per day and eat 8 to 10 servings of fruit and vegetables servings daily. Remember to eat plenty of fish every week and don't smoke and do your best to avoid processed foods.

Unhealthy-food choices are foods that contain a lot of sugar and artificial preservatives, especially hydrogenated fat. This type of fat is a regular oil that has been zapped with hydrogen atoms in order to preserve the shelf life of foods. A diet low in calcium, magnesium, and potassium can raise blood pressure so can a diet high in saturated fat and caffeine.

If you feel stressed, your blood pressure will normally rise temporarily because stress causes your arteries to constrict forcing your heart to work harder. Your Blood Pressure will also rise if you are overweight and live a truly lazy life style. It is necessary to live an active life style and feel happy over all.

Stay within normal weight for your height, decide to eat healthy whole foods, omit alcohol and drink lots of water and you probably will live a healthier life without feeling flushed with high-blood pressure.

Conventional Way

A Conventional Doctor will normally shock you about your blood pressure if your blood pressure reading in not within normal limits. A normal reading is between 110/70 to 120/80. If you are consistently not within this range for three or more months, he will probably require you take medication. There are many medications to lower blood pressure. They all essentially do the same thing that is they are dialectics. They make you urinate excessively.

These medications work quickly, and some have unpleasant side effects. I would much rather be on a health kick. I would rather exercise, drink jolly old fashion water and eat sensibly than ingest medication with potentially horrible side effects.

It's all up to you! However if, you put your mind to living a healthy life you will not have an issue of High Blood Pressure. In my opinion, fast options never work satisfactorily, and I rather do things slowly and take a deep breath in the mist of it all.

Great article! I think it's important for people to try natural methods of healing their body first, then if those don't work go for the medicine.

"Blood Pressure, true or false?"

The hub is informative and excellent.

Human being is combination of body and soul. Both need natural growth in a balanced way. The things in the environment do have effect on both the body and the soul. Pleasure and Anger exhibit it often. Every thing in human beings is in a system and both way conrtrolled by the Creator and yet the liberty and choice is there for human beings.Nature takes care of the defects and most of the defects are healed by taking some time and where defects are diagnosed human intelligence and faculties have been blessed with vision to findout the deffect and repair it by external counter acting material available in the environment called medicines or other processes. ignorance, negligence, arrogance, over or under indulgence or nourishment, imbalance and unnatural way of living all have their impact which is adverse. Nature is so kind and merciful to human beings that even in the worst situation helps assists to recoup the deficienceies and excrete the excesses by variou means.

Beware! In the Remembrance of God there lies the satisfaction of hearts.

For every sickness there is a remedy.

Real health is the Divine Grant.

May God bless us all.
