This sounds very familiar. Like you, I feel 100% better now that my blood pressure is under control.

I also agree that food is an important factor. Kellie has written many times about the importance of “hidden” salt in food. I also used to eat the “healthy” convenience food, which I later found out was almost soaked in salt.

And to you too!

I often wonder how many people suffer from high blood pressure and don’t know it because these symptoms are so common with other problems. I recommend every person check their blood pressure readings and take them seriously!

It can turn your life around like night and day. I have alot more energy. I am happier less agitated and I don’t feel like my body is out of control. When my blood pressure was high I literally felt like my blood was boiling and I felt out of control of my body.

It’s not hard keeping it down. I’m not on medications I just workout, watch what I eat. Alot of foods today are loaded high in sodium which isn’t needed. Foods taste just as great with lower amounts of sodium. I was worried it wouldn’t. They also have salt substitutes out there. High blood pressure made me realize the governments’ healthcare changes will not lower cost because we are all so poorly educated about the foods we eat and there isn’t low enough caps on how much sodium food manufactuers should be putting on foods, if there are any.

Many foods convenient foods I have found are very high in sodium and we live in a convenient society so that food is what we seek. High sodium foods are processed foods like canned meat, tv dinners and fast food restaurant foods, boxed frozen foods, all of which I ate regularly.

Even the healthy frozen foods were high in sodium. It’s as though salt doesn’t matter. Our government must implement lower sodium caps on these types of foods or people are doomed to be unhealthy and costs will become actually only continue to ballon out of control as obese children become parents.

Also I found out I had high bood pressure by going to the dentist. So I thank and now love my dentist for saving my life and making it brighter in more ways than just by protecting my smile, they protected my body.

I wish everyone good health and prosperity!
