Today, I want to share an interesting home remedy that can potentially lower your risk of hypertension.
Many people with high blood pressure are told to reduce their sodium intake. However, a deficiency in sodium can lead to high blood pressure. A low-salt diet can actually worsen your blood pressure.
In my opinion, potassium is one of the key factors in restoring healthy blood pressure levels. Not decreasing sodium-just increasing potassium.
Vitamin D is also important for someone with hypertension, especially essential hypertension.
Insulin resistance is at the heart of metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is a combination of hypertension, high blood glucose, fatty liver disease, and high cholesterol. It’s crucial to go on a low-carb diet to support healthy blood pressure levels.
Natural alternatives for hypertension:
1. Consume more potassium (vegetables)
2. Go on a low-carb diet
3. Take vitamin D or get more sun
You can also try an incredible and simple breathing technique to help lower your blood pressure fast. This technique is called paced breathing.
Take six complete breaths per minute. Slowly breathe through your nose using your chest, inhale for five seconds, and exhale for five seconds. Do this periodically throughout the day.
Other potential benefits of paced breathing:
• It can help increase oxygen saturation
• It can help increase exercise tolerance
• It can help decrease sympathetic overdrive

Dr Berg is right about breath rate controlling your blood pressure.

After I started doing Yoga breathing while being checked, my BP would always be 120/80 or lower.

Now I make a point of concentrating on breathing and I also take electrolytes. Dr Berg, thank you!! ☺️

If you have a large upper arm, make sure the person taking your blood pressure is using a large enough blood pressure cuff because it will give an incorrect reading. It happened to me and the dr tried to get me to take a prescription and the nurse said that the cuff was too small and to make sure I always tell them to use a extra large cuff. So glad she told me.

Over Thanksgiving eeek at a routine checkup my primary care sent me to the hospital because my BP was over 200! I had had a stroke. What I don't understand is they wanted to get my blood pressure (which usually hovers around 140) under 160 in order to release me with a calcium channel blocker. But I'm nervous all the time now because 160 is too high and I could have another stroke.

Dr. Berg! since I started listening to you while getting back into keto, my health has changed for the better. I had developed high blood pressure while taking care of my husband that had stage 4 lung cancer. I gained horrible weight, and I was severely depressed. He passed 4 years ago and it took me awhile to work through that loss. I had tried keto shortly after his death but didn't have the right guidance. I lost weight but I also went through some serious hair loss. At the time I was led to believe that it was possibly my thyroid in which I was tested and that wasn't the case. In May of this year I made some changes in my life which helped me get back to keto. Through word of mouth I was led to you ❤ I've lost almost 50 pounds, no longer on BP meds. My hair is coming back. Recent blood work showed that my sodium is within range, potassium is up. But chloride is very low. Of course I don't know what that means and I would love to see a video on that. I do deal with osteoarthritis now so I don't know if that has anything to do with that. My friends are amazed at the change in my overall appearance and attitude. And it's ALL THANKS TO YOU!!

Be certain that your relatives master the kidney stone producing list of foods! I used to be fond of olives but avoid them now.

So now we are in December and I am down 12 pounds, and am at my ideal weight now with my blood pressure completely being normal again and I am totally off my blood pressure meds! My blood systolic blood pressure runs now in the low teens in the AM and the upper to mid teens PM with my diastolic anywhere from the 60es to mid 70es. So it is never too late to change your way of eating and obviously sugar and eating a lot of carbs has something to do with your blood pressure, I am proof of it!

AMISH TIP IS: There is that salt called Real Salt from Redmond. That salt comes from Utah and is unrefined and has many trace minerals that regular salt don’t have. It’s great to hydrate your body since most people are dehydrated. In a Pint jar with purified water add 5 Tbsp of that salt and let it sit for few hours because it needs to break down,and the water will be cloudy or even better if you make it in the evening and let it sit till morning on the counter and when you wake up have it first before anything else - so add it in your glass of water about a teaspoon with some lemon 🍋 and just keep drinking it throughout the day.

I also discovered this. I have histamine intolerance and mcas. Just about anything can start a reaction and one symptom can be raised blood pressure. I have learned to lower it with calm breathing while I wait for the meds to kick in. I have had much less ambulance rides because of this. It works even when your body is going through severe stress. ❤

I discovered that when I did the other breathing exercise you taught where you breath in for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, exhale for 4 seconds and then hold for 4 seconds, my blood pressure decreased as well. So with a small tweak using the breath in slowly 5 seconds and exhale slowly for 5 seconds and repeat 6 times, I'll get even better results.

I started following you and went on the Keto Diet/Intermittant fasting in January this year. My blood pressure wasn't that high to begin with, about 140+ over 100, but it has dropped to 130 over 70. I've also gone from 225 Lbs to 180 Lbs (6'3"). I use this breathing method any time I get my blood pressure checked. It quickly lowers your blood pressure after physical activity (like walking into the Dr's office and being stressed about the exam/procedure). I learned this technique when I was a teenager at a Silva Mind Control class (My mother made me go). I've used this for 50 years to relax or calm down in stressful situations. It works great. Thanks for all of the advice. Request: do a video on Bladder Cancer.

A word of caution. I was diagnosed with Hypertension when I was 40. I made all the lifestyle changes, exercise, weight loss, diet,, etc. All to no avail. Now I was not happy at all when my doctor told me I would be on medication for it, for life. Then I asked an obvious question, what are the long term side effects with this medication. There's one major side effect he said, you'll live longer. If you've made all the lifestyle changes and your blood pressure is still high, please take the medication. Be aware that hypertension left uncontrolled can lead to stroke. It can damage your heart, eyesight and kidneys.

This breathing technique helps so much just when your nervous and all freaked out over something. It's having the whear for all to remember to do so. It's training your self and make it a healthy habits. If you want to pass along this great method tell someone especially before they get upset because unless their coaches let's say they may not get it. I hate for instance when someone would say, "calm down". Honestly, that upsets me more usually. I almost never get that way now. 😊

My diet is full of vegetables and I rarely use salt or add salt to meals. So, the slow 6 breaths per minute will be what I concentrate on my next check-up.
