Guest guest Posted January 8, 2001 Report Share Posted January 8, 2001 Hey there :-) My husband has been, er, keeping something from me -- he has had borderline high blood pressure for a good 20 years now (he's 47) and last week he had chest pains and finally told me. Grrr. I have at least had him on a really healthy diet for the 5 years I've known him, but apparently it hasn't done enough good. I'm hoping he doesn't have atherosclerosis or something equally fun. He didn't eat very well before I met him. Anyhow, he's set to see a cardiologist next week. He is receptive to natural therapies (he better be -- it's my profession!) so I've got him taking cayenne and garlic, no caffeine (down from his usual 2-4 a day) and lots of water. My question is: What kind of a dosage do I need to really knock his BP down? This morning it was 135/95, and that diastolic is a lot steeper than I like to see. He's using a nice hot cayenne and fresh, organic garlic. I'm thinking that, once I get his BP back down, he can maintain it with just the SuperTonic. Suggestions? Opinions? Thanks, Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
