Heart/Circulation

High blood pressure is a common problem as we age. It is a wake-up call for us to clean up our diet and get more exercise. It is important to keep antioxidant levels high, to eat plenty of fiber filled vegetables (preferable raw) and whole grains and drink plenty of water. Sometimes just drinking 6-10 glasses of clear, purified or distilled water a day and eliminating all sodas and coffee is enough to bring down the high blood pressure. Sometimes it takes a little more. Here are some products that have been shown to help high blood pressure, congestive heart, irregular heart beat, angina pain and high cholesterol levels. I recommend "Prescription Alternatives" by Earl Mindell and Virginia Hopkins. The book tells all about heart drugs, their side effects and alternatives to drugs. See the book section for this book.
