How to Lower HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE Naturally (Easy Tips)

Dr. Ken Berry - The Proper Human Diet & Ancestral Health

Summary

Dr. Ken Berry challenges the long-held belief that salt intake is a primary cause of high blood pressure, arguing that the scientific evidence supporting this hypothesis is weak. He traces the origins of the low-salt recommendation to early 20th-century observations and subsequent studies on rats, which he contends do not apply to humans. Berry emphasizes that controlled research has not substantiated the claim that reducing salt intake significantly lowers blood pressure or decreases the risk of heart-related issues.

Instead, he advocates for a low-carbohydrate diet as a more effective method for managing blood pressure. Berry suggests that many individuals can achieve normal blood pressure levels by consuming fewer than 100 grams of carbohydrates daily. He notes that this dietary approach not only helps regulate blood pressure but also allows individuals to potentially reduce or eliminate their reliance on medication. Berry encourages listeners to monitor their blood pressure regularly while making dietary changes and to consult their healthcare providers before altering any medication regimens.

Cholesterol is made and used by your body and brain for many functions. Cholesterol-lowering drugs mess with these processes and lead to many problems. Cholesterol medicines double your risk of developing dementia, according to a new study.Uploaded 04-07-21In this video, I'll explain the study and give you the list of lipophilic medicines which double your risk of developing dementia. Please share this information with anyone you know who is taking cholesterol medications because it could save them from early dementia.The Study: https://jnm.snmjournals.org/content/62/supplement_1/102The American Heart Association's stance on dietary cholesterol:"Previously, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommended that cholesterol intake be limited to no more than 300 milligrams per day. The 2015 DGAC [Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee] will not bring forward this recommendation because available evidence shows no appreciable relationship between consumption of dietary cholesterol and serum cholesterol, consistent with the conclusions of the AHA/ACC report. Cholesterol is not a nutrient of concern for overconsumption"https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.1161/CIR.0000000000000743LIES MY DOCTOR TOLD ME: https://amzn.to/2MtuDjoHydrophilic or Lipophilic Statins? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8172607/ (Climent et al.)
