I had been on meds (diuretics) to stabilize my BP. With dietary changes

I brought it down to " normal " at sea level and stopped taking the

prescriptions. I would take them with me when I travelled to Colorado

(7,000 ft. elevation). I would check my BP, then take the meds after

finding my BP was elevated again. It was only after being raw that my

BP was not elevated. I also felt great at that elevation! When I lived

in Colorado for 2 1/2 years, I felt sluggish and when I exercised I

felt out of breath easily. I remember it was a struggle to ride a bike

(even on flat roads) because of the thinner air. When I travelled there

for the first time after being raw, not only was my BP normal, but

within a couple hours of landing in Colorado, I was out doing sprints

and going for a run. I felt great. I never felt like that when I lived

their (on the SAD (not to be confused with the TDD)). I've also had an

easier time of equalizing my ears when flying since being raw. A raw

food diet certainly seems to affect the body's ability to adjust to

different altitudes. One visit, our family actually drove to the top of

Pike's Peak (14,000 ft. elevation). I felt great and walked all around

the top. The rest of the family (4 of them) stayed near the summit

house.

 

I have no doubt that anyone on a SAD with high blood pressure would

benefit from raw foods.
