My quest to lower blood pressure without prescription drugs
drt on Mar 15 2010 | Filed under: Health & Nutritions, Heart Health
Last Friday I received my annual blood test results mentioned in a previous post on PSA Screening. My PSA was within the range where Dr. Izzy said you only need to be tested every two years. Except for a slightly elevated glucose level, my overall blood test results were good, and I will post about it later.
The result from this test that I like most was my body fat percentage. It was 19.5%, which was 0.5% higher than the result I got a day earlier from the Gym. These results were well within the error range from two different methods that were used in Gym and in the Wellness Office, respectively.
In the past I have had some posts related to heart attack after losing a few close friends of mine. However, one of the posts on Heart Attack Scare was on my voluntary removed posts last October. Today while thinking of writing this current post, I went to edit then repost the Heart Attack Scare. This will restore the missing link in the timeline on my quest to lower my blood pressure without medications, as you may find in the following posts:
- Heart Attack Information from Dr. Rosenfeld – A Tribute to Tim Russell
- I’m still taking half dose of Toporol
- Please don’t let them persuade you to not make the 9-1-1 call
- Again, please ask them too, when was your last physical?
- When was your last physical….?
As of today, I’m still taking high blood pressure medications my doctor prescribed and of course, that come with all their side effects. As you may find in some of the postings above, I have tried a few times to quit taking the medications, particularly after reading Robert E. Kowalski’s book – The Blood Pressure Cure, 8 week to lower blood pressure without prescription drugs. However, I didn’t get a good results partly due to the following factors.
- I didn’t add the exercise into daily routine,
- I found that the Sustained Release L-arginine capsule suggested by Robert in his book always passed thru my digestive track very easily,
- I could not go to bed earlier than 10PM as Robert mentioned in one of his private emails, particularly because in the past, part of my job descriptions including work on a graveyard shift,
- I was too busy to give it another try.
Now with these new test results, particularly after seeing the result when I added the physical exercise into my daily routine and being allowed to not work the graveyard shift, I thought I would give Robert’s way a try then post my story here. I just wonder if any of my readers know, how an extended release pill works? Why I always saw the pils floating in the toilet bowl not long after I took it. I would like to hear from you too.
