I’ll get shit for this but what the hell. This is all from a doctor talk that I watched somewhere on blood pressure and I think cholesterol. I forget where I saw it but everything to follow is based on what the doctor said.
Our country loves making a big deal out of high blood pressure. It’s the first thing they check when you go to the doctor. It’s a cultural thing. In Germany they think higher blood pressure is a GOOD thing and prescribe meds for people to elevate their blood pressure. That’s their cultural thing.
I’ll offer you an analogy for blood pressure.
Turn your garden hose on and that will simulate normal blood flow. Now kink the hose 3/4 of the way. That simulates high blood pressure. You’re still getting the same volume and amount of blood flowing through your vessels it’s just under a little more pressure.
Now go over to the spigot and turn it down halfway. Notice how a lot less water is flowing in order for you to reduce the high pressure caused by the kink in the hose. That’s like adding blood pressure medicine to your body. Do you feel as comfortable knowing that blood will still reach all the extremities and the further areas of your brain?
We treat the symptom. High blood pressure. Unlike the fat ass diabetics, we KNOW what’s causing our high blood pressure, it’s our steroids. Take the roids away at the end of the blast or cycle and the high blood pressure should take care of itself.
Try drinking more water. Or reduce sodium intake before resorting to blood pressure medication.
