@larysnw418 cut out caffeine, salt, and lower the sodium intake (recommended is less than 2.3g of sodium per day as part of a heart healthy diet, with less than 1.5g being ideal, particularly for those with heart failure) from the diet and the BP will stabilise. People drop their salt intake but forget the high levels of sodium in many foods. Learn to check the contents of foods bought. And do seek the advice of health professionals above TH-cam comments.
My BP was dangerously high at 235/115 and I had a bleed behind my eye when a blood vessel ruptured. I was prescribed drugs and couldn't even stand upright without falling people thought I was drunk. Everything was spinning. I went back to the doctor and she said my BP was still too high at 150/90 and DOUBLE the drugs that were making me so sick. I told her I would be bed ridden. She said it's either that or risk a stroke or heart attack. I stopped them, did my own research and brought it under control myself without drugs. Breathing exercises, gentle walking not strenuous Breathing in the air and watching, listening to the birds and really looking at the nature that surrounds me, even the bugs calm my soul. Fish oil, magnesium, garlic and ginger are mu supplements. BP 130/70. My GP aimed for 140/90 for my age (70). I have to add that when my daughter brought me a McD's meal with a full sugar coke it went up to 200/110 I half an hour !!!!
@@alainhuynh1 sugar definitely has an impact along with additives. I now eat mostly fresh food and avoid sugar and yeast. The mac D's meal that caused my BP to spike was probably the whole thing, lots of salt, fats and additives plus the full sugar coke which I have to admit is my biggest weakness!
this is very interesting as i can relate to all of this but a bit milder symptoms and only 40. i am going to try and cut out sugar etc more . why does sugar have such an impact i wonder? i asked my partner who is a doctor and she said it’s most likely the caffeine in the coke
Root cause needs to be addressed instead of just treating symptoms 1) insulin resistance 2) internal inflammation 3) vasculitis 4) stress management 5)internal toxins 6)environmental toxins 7)gut microbiome 8)diet ( sugar , processed food , high carbs etc ) 9)activity level Highly recommends functional medicine MD over conventional institutionalized ones We have the best emergency medicine in the world but the worse preventive and treating root cause
Doctors make more money treating the symptoms rather than the cause. It's not about curing but maintaining a wealthy lifestyle. I have to forgo seeing many specialists as I can't afford their high fees and despite having a health concession card which most refuse to accept. Seeing a specialist for 5 minutes and paying $300 for the apparent privilege is nothing short of robbery.
@@HealthyBloodPressure My further concern is that the low DBP could have other consequences that were not looked at. Feinting in the elderly? And how does pulse rate effect either number. I have heart and lung damage from a flu infection of the heart muscles twenty five years ago with a greatly enlarged heart thus it does not pump efficiently. My resting pulse rate is often around ninety. While my son is so physically fit that his resting heart rate is normally about sixty. This has to have some effect on BP. So many questions. I have also lost a massive amount of weight after having throat cancer. I held weight through treatment but in the thirteen months since then I dropped from 208 lbs to 145 lbs at six foot tall. I feel over medicated and with my doctors consent I stopped my Lisinopril, but still am taking Diltiazem. Next visit I want to try lowering the dose of that due to constant muscle aches. From where I sit at 68 years old, I would prefer to be more active even if my BP runs a little higher than 130. Seems to be all about trade offs. These studies are so focused on one outcome that they miss the whole picture.
Why we follow US law for medicine.. This is all Mafias to sell medicines for BP & Triglycerides chlorestrol. Don't worry about BP/Triglycerides chlorestrol. My BP is 160/90 & Triglycerides 678/ Chlorestrol 350 from last 20 years. But still ok

@@markpashia7067 Wow, you've been through a LOT! And you're right, usually when a study is done, it's often very myopic. It's hard to do a study that looks at many things at one time because when you introduce more variables into a study, the outcome or results tend to be too watered down. There is a lot to take into consideration when treating high blood pressure. So this is just one study of many. Take that for what its worth.
Majority of doctors do not take your blood pressure correctly they'll put the cuff over your jacket over your sweatshirt They do not have the cuff lined up with your heart you're sitting on a table with your legs hanging off you are stressed out because you just sat in the waiting room for an hour or more. Now you walk into the office there's no calm down time.The also use one cuff for everyone there's different sizes for reasons my doctor has not changed his cuff in about 5 years it's shredded and messed up
RIGHT!!! I've asked a past nurse assistant to do it correctly and she scoffed and got angry. After years of her bad attitude I changed doctors. I really liked the doctor and the Dr actually told her to use the correct cuff and NA really got upset.
What a wonderful machine the heart is. At 82 I have been up to the 170s it’s the clogged up veins you have got to worry about just eat good foods I would say my normal blood pressure was 68/126 when thing are going well and I am relaxed and even a visit to the doctors elevate my blood pressure . For the last 30 years I have been taking my blood pressure
At around 5 am I will take 1/3 of a pill for high blood pressure with warm milk. 1 hour later I will take a piece of cheese, 10g butter, 1/2 of a multi vitamin, 2500 IU vitamin D3 with 90mcg vitamin K2, two table spoon red palm oil and 500mg vitamin C, 1g high potency fish oil. Then go for exercise in the park. 1g of magnesium glycinate, 2g of blended 50:50 sodium & potassium salt in 300ml warm water for sipping later on. Eye floaters in the eyes start to reduce. 1st time ever I add testing of vitamin D, vitamin B12 and magnesium to my annual blood works. Readings for all three testing are in good range. Not on keto but on a low carb diet. BMI drops from 29+ to just below 24.😂😂😂
Your bo going up at the drs is called white coat syndrome. It happens to most of us. And the older we get the more it happens because we get more afraid of what they are going to do to us.
This is the is the situation I'm in. I have a high systolic and low diastolic according to my own readings since I can't trust the readings in the doctor's office.
What about age related BP norms. As a doctor you also have to monitor the risks with medicating. I read on various places online that the cardiologist community recommend accepting systolic up to 155 before prescribing medicines and of course give importance to life style factors for ages 60-65 and above. I personally believe in that.
Hi Rolfa, that might be true. Everyone's case is different which is why we always say to see your doctor so that she can give you a personal diagnosis. :-)
Diet plays a role Hydration plays a role Nutrition plays a role Physical exercise plays a role Others factors plays a role like Thyroid, insulin, liver, kidneys, pancreas, bladder, vitamin deficiency, lymph node's, and unnecessary stress. Research is important to healthy life style. There is alternative ways to heal the blood pressure. Research. Thank you for the video quite informative.
Systolic readings are a measure of the elasticity of the aorta which is the largest artery. More pressure is needed to push blood through a stiff and calcified artery. However, a daily supplement with vitamin D3 combined with K2 can address this by putting calcium back into the bones instead of the kidneys or arteries. Good video.
Bisoprolol can take it down fast, but it need constant monitoring. Once you’re sensitive to it, it will take down BP more than when you’re started with it. And dosage needs to be immediately reduced.
This is nice to know for me, too. I have always had borderline "dangerously- too-low" blood pressure (both numbers). When I exercise hard, my pressure finally rises into the 'normal' range. Various doctors over the years have panicked and/or been visibly uncertain what, if anything, to do about that. So I've never been prescribed any medication. Guess that's a good thing!
A rare condition and leading cause for high blood pressure is *"hyperaldosteronism."* It's due to excess aldosterone production by the adrenal gland. Case in point: my mom had "resistant high blood pressure," and it did not respond well to aggressive medical treatment, however. A simple blood test, by a cardiologist, diagnosed my mom with hyperaldosteronism. Since the diagnosis, the cardiologist prescribed a medication that treats the aldosterone, and it has been very effective in reducing my mom's blood pressure. Therefore, I recommend researching the topic. .
@@Iris-2023gh My mom is currently taking Spironolactone, however, it does not *"cure"* the condition. Accordingly, Spironolactone is the agent most commonly used to treat hyperaldosteronism because it directly *"antagonizes aldosterone effects"* at the distal tubule. Also, if hyperaldosteronism is the diagnosis, then there's another option, which is a test to determine the level of aldosterone being secreted. Usually, a benign tumor is involved, and can be removed, but I don't know if that's a 100% cure. That's why I recommended researching the topic, in order to attain a clearer understanding of the condition. Or discussing it with a doctor.
@@Iris-2023gh " What was prescribed to cure your mother's condition?" Likely spironolactone.. "Do you mean it has something to do with the kidney?" With adrenal glands. But spironolactone destroys kidneys over the time...
Guess the next study will need to clarify when someone can drop the Systolic to normal but the Diastolic is not coming down as much as expected and still lingering around what considered as high readings.
Why we follow US law for medicine.. This is all Mafias to sell medicines for BP & Triglycerides chlorestrol. Don't worry about BP/Triglycerides chlorestrol. My BP is 160/90 & Triglycerides 678/ Chlorestrol 350 from last 20 years. But still ok
I have this. The first time my BP was taken at age 18, it was 160/60. The biggest problem is that meds that lower BP tend to lower pulse. My resting pulse is in the 50s. I can’t function with a pulse in the low 40s or less.
Diastolic BP is the same as HbA1c in diabetes, it reflects long-term stress, not short-term like systolic BP. The systolic is too volatile. It can even change a lot when a patient moves. When I treat a patient with natural medicine, the systolic will goes down in the first few days. The diastolic will goes down later when the systemic stress fully recovers.
Natural medicine is not just more effective than chemical drugs, it can also cure serious illnesses including cancers. I say CURE from my clinical experience, not the baffling placebo.
Likely erratic CNS response although DBP depends on several factors such as estrogen, anemia, low salt diet, hypocalcemia. You have to find the cause to fix the problem. A good doctor can help you out. Stupid doctors can't.
Your recommended blood pressure numbers is dependent on how much money the study received from big pharmacy. If your doctor's first recommended treatment is drugs, he is ignorant of the latest research on causes and treatment of hbp. Taking blood pressure one time in the Doctor's office is not sufficient to diagnose high blood pressure.
Low diastolic pressure means the wall of the coronary vessel is flexible to absorb the residual pressure of the systolic pumping,or the lack of atherosclerosis. Medical doctors may need help from Engineers in interpreting things out of their field.
So, in your opinion, someone like me, who's in overall good physical condition (all my blood markers were in the optimal range at my last physical), works out consistently 3-5 times per week, and eats a fairly good balanced diet, should have nothing to worry about with an average blood pressure reading in the low 130s/70s?
If you see high numbers of BP please try this method to reduce it. Its simple. Download a comedy show of your choice. By watching that show you shoul laugh uncontrollably, select such a show. Watch it and what happends is two things 1. Your mind get relaxed 2. When laughing too much of Oxygen is inhaled. Now you check your BP, it will show correct values or considerably less from your regular values. Continue this method and in a weeks time you will see a change. Bottom line is your mind should be in a relaxed state.
You may not have a heart attack but the risk of falling and getting hurt increase. I do mechinac work and getting up from the floor is a problem when my number gets below 50 because I lose my balance and falling into things getting up. There study needs to look at the whoile picture not just the heart. Falling and brain injuries can cause death too, in older people...
I am 66. For now my BP in rest 100/60 and 53 BPM. But I used to have 85/50 and 48 BPM. So, I work on to get my best BP back and may be reduce pulse to below 40 BPM. I used to have BP 100/80 in age of 18 and very low HBR. My health? Absolutely great. I enjoy life. The only problem is my laziness.
The differential between Systolic and Diastolic blood pressure corresponds to Aorta contractile resistance. If the differential gets too wide this indicates an Aorta with lack of expansion. If the differential gets too low the resulting situation is the aorta is too expansive. That wide differential starves the heart of blood flow to sustain tissue. It would appear the study says that an overly contractive aorta is the big risk factor. This corresponds to study from LVAD and IABP treatments. I would say the aorta condition is more important than the heart itself from this study.

This study was encouraging and at the same time annoying to me. Why can’t the medical community ever get anything right the first time. 81 years old, BP resting about 115/62, pulse 52, typical. With a low pulse, would not the diastolic be low because of the length of time between pulses?
@@LeeCom Take an extreme, if pulse was, sat, 20, diastolic would certainly drop. By the same principle, an exercise induced pulse rate should make the high and low pressure come closer together. For me, the difference stays about 60, so likely aortic stiffness. 82 years old now, but making improvements through lifestyle changes.
They love to push bp drugs by having unreasonable low measurements. I've had marginal high my whole life. In my 70s now. Eat healthy and exercise regularly but doctors have this thing about lowering it.
I have Hyperaldosteronism. My blood pressure was 199/100. With medicine it is now 122/62. The last two months, it is the first time I have ever had diastolic of 62. It has never been this low. I have atherosclerosis, but my nurse Practioner isn't concerned.
I've worked with enough pumps to know that the single greatest predictor of longevity is the head pressure at startup. Pumps that have to start up against a high head pressure (back pressure) fail sooner than those with a lesser load. There's no reason to think this would be any different for a 4-chambered, positive displacement pump like a heart. The lower the diastolic pressure at the beginning of the pulse, the easier it is for the pump to start. It's also more volumetrically efficient - this should be completely obvious - the lower the back pressure, the lower the discharge pressure required to get the valves opened and fluid flowing. Obviously having too low a pressure is bad for other reasons; we actually need a minimal volume of blood flowing constantly; and the inlet side needs enough available volume to fully fill the atrial chambers within the timeframe it has. But anything above the minimum should be sufficient. And that's not to detract from high systolic pressure being a problem. Higher systolic pressure strains the walls of the chambers and puts higher demands on the valves between atrial and ventricle chambers. But both numbers are a problem if they're too high for too long.
@@btudrus And a muscle is not a hydraulic cylinder. But in either case, more load = more force required. And you're wrong, the heart absolutely is a pump. An ic pump.
@@kurtcpi5670 " But in either case, more load = more force required." So what? That is irrelevant with regard to longevity. The only thing that matters is whether the heart can regenerate itself enough or not. And that has NOTHING to do with pressure / mechanical stress / etc. It has all to do with metabolism, autophagy / mitophagy, insulin levels and metabolic state of the cell (the Warburg effect induced by fructose)...
@@btudrus Here's a thought. Do a Google search for "Does high blood pressure cause heart failure", and then follow the links to ANY reputable medical publication (Mayo, Johns Hopkins, etc.) and see what they have to say about it. Pure common sense dictates that long-term stress on any energetic mechanism, mechanical or biological, will wear it out faster. And high blood pressure causes kidney failure and vascular damage leading to other factors that exacerbate coronary artery disease, further contributing to heart disease. Life processes are a downward spiral toward total system failure and ultimate death (no one gets out alive), but high blood pressure is a sure-fire way to get to the end sooner.
My doctor was concerned because when my diastolic pressure went down there was more risk of fainting rather than heart attacks. I nearly fainted several times when I stood ip on the he medication.
Never use minoxidil, i am 26 years old, i was athletic boy and never had any heart problem, i started using minoxidil for my hair fall but it gave me permanent damage to my heart and hypertension. My left and right both ventricle are failed.
@@propbraker yeah my heart beats at 110-120 beats with no reason, minoxidil gave me permanent damage to my heart and it dilated all blood vessels of my body so heart rates are not coming down. Left ventricular hypertrophy i got
I don't know how accurate this is, but it is not new. As a teenager i worked as a Ward Orderly in a local teaching hospital. The the standard was 100+age for Systolic and they completely ignored diastolic, unless it wasn't there!
I am a little worried a month ago i gave up smoking and drinking alcohol at that time my pressure was 125/80 65. Now i have a pressure of 118/56 51. I have been active in sports almost all my life except for the last 2 years. Now i train regularly but still i am afraid that something is wrong with my blood pressure.
A critical measurement is the difference between Diastolic and Systolic, this reading is a measure of the elasticity of the aorta which is the largest artery and also shows if there is a lack of blood flow into the heart.
I’ve been running 160/105 for about the past 3 years. At times it spikes to 180/120. Docs don’t really seem to be alarmed about it tho. I’m a 58 year old n male 145lbs and eat a mainly healthy diet with very little fried food or salt, very little red meat, etc. do not smoke (never), do not drink, active as much as possible but do not exercise.
Blood pressure is a BIG. money grab....whats normal for one is not necessarily normal for all.....we are all different in many ways....I knew an 93 yr old woman her bp was 230/130....i was the nurse that took that bp....i asked her if she was worried....she laughed and said thats what they all say....its been like that for years love and im still alive !... That taught me another life lesson
What about if my diastolic number is often high , usually it varies between 88 & 115 While the systolic is b/w 130 & 160 . Shouldn’t i worry abt diastolic though ? Thank you doctor
Next study shows " Forget Systoilc BP". He will also get Nobel prize . Next study will say.. Forget BP. After all maximum that can occur is.. you may die...nothing more. Lesson..Never forget Systolic and Diastolic . Be careful.
__ I failed an EMT course in Massachusetts in 1976 [you could get the Emergency Medical Technician certification with just 80 hours training in those days] because I couldn't get the diastolic blood pressure consistently. I had no trouble with the systolic. Now it turns out it wouldn't have mattered.
I have plotted BP against weight loss and consistently discover a drop from high to normal once I cross a threshold weight. The reverse is also true. That threshold may be different for everyone but so-called idiopathic high blood pressure responds to maintaining a healthy weight. Live long and prosper.
She reads out the study finds incorrectly. The study found that heart attack risk falls with every unit decease in DIASTOLIC blood pressure, not Systolic. This was found to be true even in people who have lower than normal disatolic levels.
Diastolic is BP at rest and systolic is when the heart pumps. If you have high systolic you are heart attack risk. If you have high diastolic what are you at risk for? Stroke.
In her book "Big Fat Surprise"... "Nina Teicholz reveals ....For example , "In the late 1800, American Indian predominantly ate meat and lived way beyond ninety years old...without cancer or diabetes, heart problems, or arthritis, and dementia..they were examined by a doctor and were of good health. Not needing canes to assist them."
@@HealthyBloodPressure I haven't got low blood pressure, I have high blood pressure, I take ramapril for this. When I took my reading I was under a lot of stress, I started getting tightness in my chest and throbbing in my right temple.

I eat meat ground beef sausage bacon eggs chicken liver beef liver. Cottage cheese and Kiefer, and milk. Going to eliminate the carbs however, have been eating bread pastries rice and blood glucose was going up. No reason to eat any carbs at all
Diastolic count below 50 gives me palpitations, headaches, uneasiness,general weakness and dizziness.I take one ExforgeHCT.5mg/160mg/12.5mg(amlodipine/valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide)per day.
Unless the patient's diastolic is so low that it can't keep a patient from being dizzy upon standing (orthostatic hyptension) or winded upon exertion, the diastolic pressure is inconsequential. I've always followed that rule (as a clinical pharmacist).
@@jansix4287 People have had low blood pressure LOOOOONNNG before Covid. So although that may be a thing, it's irrelevant to this discussion. And what do you mean by "abnormally" low blood pressure? How do you define that?
@@spocksvulcanbrain You already defined it as being "dizzy up on standing" a.k.a. fatigue. Low blood pressure won’t make your blood vessels burst, but it can stop you from being able to stand up or sit upright. It’s a sequelae of a heavy infection. The adrenals no longer produce enough hormones to regulate the blood pressure up when needed for taking a few steps. Patients only want to sleep, they are too exhausted to sit on a couch and watch tv and won’t go see a doctor either. Covid only produced much more of those cases and made the fatigue syndrome known to public.
5 cardiologists and my GP took the NO treatment, no concern, approach and it has ruined 12 years of my retirement. I FEEL no issues anytime my systolic is over 110 HOWEVER, I experience a crushing fatigue if the diastolic drops below 70 and a sharp constant pain in my neck if the diastolic drops below 60 [it has been as low as 35 rendering me useless for any task]. They are not even honest enough to admit their is no medication for this low diastolic condition and never even mentioned the 2 possible causes: A leaky valve [don't have one] or with age the stiffening of arteries which limits their ability to keep the diastolic pressure up in between heart beats. For the last 12 years ONLY my electrophysiologist has been able to address my Afib but of course that has no affect on diastolic pressure.
Don't you think you should also point out the danger of a high pulse pressure? The problems associated with a large difference between diastolic pressure and systolic pressure? There is evidence that high pulse pressure is associated with high increase in heart attack probabilities. I had blood pressures of 160/50 but my doctor recommended only high pressure reduction. When I insisted on seeing a cardiologist a faulty aortic valve and atrial flutter were revealed and urgent surgery prescribed. I'm fine! The low diastolic pressure was a clue to a heart problem however.
Hi, I monitor my blood pressure closely because I was able to stop taking my BP medication due to reduced weight and diet changes. I have mostly eliminated processed foods and food sold in restaurants no matter whether it is fast food or a sit-down restaurant and grocery stores. The sodium content of fast food and restaurant food is off the charts and is killing people. Processed foods are even worse for sodium. My question is this. What are your thoughts about pulse pressure? I never even heard of pulse pressure before I saw a video here on TH-cam about how important pulse pressure is. My doctors have NEVER even mentioned it to me before. Imagine that. Please respond to me concerning your feelings about the importance of monitoring pulse pressure along with blood pressure. Great video by the way. Thank you kindly. John in Ohio
BP Medication is the only control only. What is more important is to live a more healthy lifestyle by watching your diet (especially salt, fats & sugar) and doing exercises and try to reduce mental stress. Exercises need not be vigorous but customized to your health conditions. If you can’t run, go brisk walking or strolls at pace your heart & physical conditions can manage. Then slowly increase the frequency and /or pace as your conditions improve. Of course you still need to monitor your BP, heart rate & oxygen level before and after exercises.
To Control blood pressure without drug's you will need to incorporate beet powder into your daily meals, also beet root capsules cut out salt and loose weight.
It’s carbohydrate which causes HBP. It causes the kidneys to retain salt which means that the increased water retention raises BP. I cut out the carbs and reduced mine from 140/85 to 110/65. Takes about 6 months but no medicine required.
You mean cut out refined, processed 'table salt'. My uncle almost died when he "cut out salt". But when he had sea salt and Himalayan pink salt etc, he bounced back...
What regulates BP is the arterioles. They have a diameter of 0.5 millimeters or 0.019689 inches. Whatever the brachial or arterial pressure is this is radically lowered by the arterioles, most doctors don't know this. This radical reduction of pressure facilitates a smooth nonfluctuating stream of blood platelets to do their job. And yes folks medical science, a misnomer, can be wrong.

Vegan can actually be a good intervention, although there are better ways. However, you are getting past the point of usefulness, and run quite a few risks if you continue. I know you won’t believe me, because if you search on the internet with confirmation bias, you will find many people saying what you want to hear. I am someone who was raw vegan for about 2 years, as well as being primarily vegan for even longer, with some of the best support available (I worked at the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center for 3-1/2 years). It took more than five years to recover, and I still have lingering effects. All I can say is don’t believe the hype, and eat what your body evolved to eat over hundreds of thousands of years. (No, that does not include McD’s.)
Only the European, mechanistic paradigm though…this project treats ☯️ and yoga as a blog post or two…these are complete paradigms, both…and vastly superior to the quackery you are focused on.
Look into Vesugen peptide bioregulator for rejuventation/regeneration of blood vessels and normalization of blood pressure. Black garlic extract also helps a lot.
I have been taking blood pressure meds for about 3 years, and only recently I have been noticing a higher diastolic # especially after waking up. It is usually between 91 and 115. About a half hour later, it goes down to below 90 even if the systolic is still a bit high. Should I look at having my meds altered? I am also on Metformin and blood thinners.
Want lower blood pressure? Exercise, beet juice. You don't talk about the damage to the blood vessels from chronic high blood pressure. More you exercise, better diastolic blood pressure. Systolic comes down with less stress, good night's sleep, foods that lower blood pressure. Diastolic blood pressure is a good clinical indicator of health and amount of exercise you do 😊
Myself and several people I know have thrown away their blood 🩸 pressure medication 💊 and switched to HAWTHORN BERRY it’s found in food supplement sections but the best I have found is in GNC stores. Inexpensive and a fantastic antioxidant! No side effects and my BP averages 115/75😊❤😊
One observational study does not indicate or invalidate anything. What are the underling assumptions of the Mendelian Randomisation, how many and what were the genetic variations that were applied? Randomised Clinically Controlled Studies are the gold standard for drawing such sweeping conclusions. This study is merely a possible cause for further and hopefully repeatable results.
I know nobody is perfect. But the medical field and or science has time and time again changed their decisions on some pretty important health issues! This is why I don't have a lot of faith in the health care industry!
Next study will come shortly " Forget your Systolic number". He will also get a Ph.D. Truth is no one knows exactly the real impact on life of Systolic or Diastolic BP. Blind leading the Blind.
And always its about chemical solutions. I had high BP and reduced it back to normal in 2 months getting rid of my meds completely. Its called eating g a healthy low carb and zero plant seed oil diet. Try it if you want to live a normal life without chemicals.
Allopathic research keep on contradictory findings . Its own findings . That's why it is best to follow Ayurvedic and Naturopathic treatment . Additionally no side effects .

My BP was dangerously high at 235/115 and I had a bleed behind my eye when a blood vessel ruptured. I was prescribed drugs and couldn't even stand upright without falling people thought I was drunk. Everything was spinning. I went back to the doctor and she said my BP was still too high at 150/90 and DOUBLE the drugs that were making me so sick. I told her I would be bed ridden. She said it's either that or risk a stroke or heart attack. I stopped them, did my own research and brought it under control myself without drugs. Breathing exercises, gentle walking not strenuous Breathing in the air and watching, listening to the birds and really looking at the nature that surrounds me, even the bugs calm my soul. Fish oil, magnesium, garlic and ginger are mu supplements. BP 130/70. My GP aimed for 140/90 for my age (70). I have to add that when my daughter brought me a McD's meal with a full sugar coke it went up to 200/110 I half an hour !!!!
Hi, Thanks for sharing. Are you suggesting Sugar is the main factor contributing to higher BP, at least in yoyr case？
@@alainhuynh1 sugar definitely has an impact along with additives. I now eat mostly fresh food and avoid sugar and yeast. The mac D's meal that caused my BP to spike was probably the whole thing, lots of salt, fats and additives plus the full sugar coke which I have to admit is my biggest weakness!
@hello not just sugar, but all high carb foods.
Thank you for sharing your story. That's fantastic!
this is very interesting as i can relate to all of this but a bit milder symptoms and only 40. i am going to try and cut out sugar etc more . why does sugar have such an impact i wonder? i asked my partner who is a doctor and she said it’s most likely the caffeine in the coke
Root cause needs to be addressed instead of just treating symptoms
1) insulin resistance
2) internal inflammation
3) vasculitis
4) stress management
5)internal toxins
6)environmental toxins
7)gut microbiome
8)diet ( sugar , processed food , high carbs etc )
9)activity level
Highly recommends functional medicine MD over conventional institutionalized ones
We have the best emergency medicine in the world but the worse preventive and treating root cause
Elevated Uric Acid levels cause HBP
Agreed
Doctors make more money treating the symptoms rather than the cause. It's not about curing but maintaining a wealthy lifestyle. I have to forgo seeing many specialists as I can't afford their high fees and despite having a health concession card which most refuse to accept. Seeing a specialist for 5 minutes and paying $300 for the apparent privilege is nothing short of robbery.
No money in preventative medicine.
Okay, tell this to my Cardiologist and Nephrologist
And as always next study shows surprisingly something else.
I hear ya. There needs to be more studies to corroborate this study.
@@HealthyBloodPressure My further concern is that the low DBP could have other consequences that were not looked at. Feinting in the elderly? And how does pulse rate effect either number. I have heart and lung damage from a flu infection of the heart muscles twenty five years ago with a greatly enlarged heart thus it does not pump efficiently. My resting pulse rate is often around ninety. While my son is so physically fit that his resting heart rate is normally about sixty. This has to have some effect on BP. So many questions. I have also lost a massive amount of weight after having throat cancer. I held weight through treatment but in the thirteen months since then I dropped from 208 lbs to 145 lbs at six foot tall. I feel over medicated and with my doctors consent I stopped my Lisinopril, but still am taking Diltiazem. Next visit I want to try lowering the dose of that due to constant muscle aches. From where I sit at 68 years old, I would prefer to be more active even if my BP runs a little higher than 130. Seems to be all about trade offs. These studies are so focused on one outcome that they miss the whole picture.

It's hard to do a study that looks at many things at one time because when you introduce more variables into a study, the outcome or results tend to be too watered down. There is a lot to take into consideration when treating high blood pressure. So this is just one study of many. Take that for what its worth.
Majority of doctors do not take your blood pressure correctly they'll put the cuff over your jacket over your sweatshirt They do not have the cuff lined up with your heart you're sitting on a table with your legs hanging off you are stressed out because you just sat in the waiting room for an hour or more. Now you walk into the office there's no calm down time.The also use one cuff for everyone there's different sizes for reasons my doctor has not changed his cuff in about 5 years it's shredded and messed up
This is true.
Bp must to be taken on bare skin
RIGHT!!! I've asked a past nurse assistant to do it correctly and she scoffed and got angry. After years of her bad attitude I changed doctors. I really liked the doctor and the Dr actually told her to use the correct cuff and NA really got upset.

For the last 30 years I have been taking my blood pressure
At around 5 am I will take 1/3 of a pill for high blood pressure with warm milk. 1 hour later I will take a piece of cheese, 10g butter, 1/2 of a multi vitamin, 2500 IU vitamin D3 with 90mcg vitamin K2, two table spoon red palm oil and 500mg vitamin C, 1g high potency fish oil. Then go for exercise in the park.
1g of magnesium glycinate, 2g of blended 50:50 sodium & potassium salt in 300ml warm water for sipping later on.
Eye floaters in the eyes start to reduce. 1st time ever I add testing of vitamin D, vitamin B12 and magnesium to my annual blood works. Readings for all three testing are in good range.

What about age related BP norms. As a doctor you also have to monitor the risks with medicating. I read on various places online that the cardiologist community recommend accepting systolic up to 155 before prescribing medicines and of course give importance to life style factors for ages 60-65 and above. I personally believe in that.
Hi Rolfa, that might be true. Everyone's case is different which is why we always say to see your doctor so that she can give you a personal diagnosis. :-)

Physical exercise plays a role
Others factors plays a role like
Thyroid, insulin, liver, kidneys, pancreas, bladder, vitamin deficiency, lymph node's, and unnecessary stress.

@@justinamusyoka4986 sometimes as high as 190/110
Systolic readings are a measure of the elasticity of the aorta which is the largest artery. More pressure is needed to push blood through a stiff and calcified artery. However, a daily supplement with vitamin D3 combined with K2 can address this by putting calcium back into the bones instead of the kidneys or arteries. Good video.
I heard about that on another channel, York cardiology. I started taking K2 and D3.
Bisoprolol can take it down fast, but it need constant monitoring. Once you’re sensitive to it, it will take down BP more than when you’re started with it. And dosage needs to be immediately reduced.
This is nice to know for me, too. I have always had borderline "dangerously- too-low" blood pressure (both numbers). When I exercise hard, my pressure finally rises into the 'normal' range. Various doctors over the years have panicked and/or been visibly uncertain what, if anything, to do about that. So I've never been prescribed any medication. Guess that's a good thing!
A rare condition and leading cause for high blood pressure is *"hyperaldosteronism."* It's due to excess aldosterone production by the adrenal gland. Case in point: my mom had "resistant high blood pressure," and it did not respond well to aggressive medical treatment, however. A simple blood test, by a cardiologist, diagnosed my mom with hyperaldosteronism. Since the diagnosis, the cardiologist prescribed a medication that treats the aldosterone, and it has been very effective in reducing my mom's blood pressure. Therefore, I recommend researching the topic. .
@Amanja0308, What was prescribed to cure your mother's condition? Do you mean it has something to do with the kidney?
@@Iris-2023gh My mom is currently taking Spironolactone, however, it does not *"cure"* the condition. Accordingly, Spironolactone is the agent most commonly used to treat hyperaldosteronism because it directly *"antagonizes aldosterone effects"* at the distal tubule. Also, if hyperaldosteronism is the diagnosis, then there's another option, which is a test to determine the level of aldosterone being secreted. Usually, a benign tumor is involved, and can be removed, but I don't know if that's a 100% cure. That's why I recommended researching the topic, in order to attain a clearer understanding of the condition. Or discussing it with a doctor.
"A simple blood test, by a cardiologist, diagnosed my mom with hyperaldosteronism."
PA cannot be diagnosed with a SINGLE blood test.
@@Iris-2023gh " What was prescribed to cure your mother's condition?"
Likely spironolactone..
"Do you mean it has something to do with the kidney?"
With adrenal glands. But spironolactone destroys kidneys over the time...
That is a good findings removing a grand obstacle in hypertension management. thanks for the researchers.
Guess the next study will need to clarify when someone can drop the Systolic to normal but the Diastolic is not coming down as much as expected and still lingering around what considered as high readings.

I have this. The first time my BP was taken at age 18, it was 160/60. The biggest problem is that meds that lower BP tend to lower pulse. My resting pulse is in the 50s. I can’t function with a pulse in the low 40s or less.
Diastolic BP is the same as HbA1c in diabetes, it reflects long-term stress, not short-term like systolic BP. The systolic is too volatile. It can even change a lot when a patient moves. When I treat a patient with natural medicine, the systolic will goes down in the first few days. The diastolic will goes down later when the systemic stress fully recovers.
By "natural medicine" you mean agents that have no effect or aren't proven to have an effect. So in essence - the placebo effect.
Natural medicine is not just more effective than chemical drugs, it can also cure serious illnesses including cancers. I say CURE from my clinical experience, not the baffling placebo.
How do you raise diastolic BP? My Systolic is normal but diastolic is low.
Likely erratic CNS response although DBP depends on several factors such as estrogen, anemia, low salt diet, hypocalcemia. You have to find the cause to fix the problem. A good doctor can help you out. Stupid doctors can't.
I thought you were going to tell us when to take our blood blood pressure and they gave me watching a movie high blood pressure. Oh my God.
Your recommended blood pressure numbers is dependent on how much money the study received from big pharmacy. If your doctor's first recommended treatment is drugs, he is ignorant of the latest research on causes and treatment of hbp. Taking blood pressure one time in the Doctor's office is not sufficient to diagnose high blood pressure.
I am greatly relieved from the results of this study
Low diastolic pressure means the wall of the coronary vessel is flexible to absorb the residual pressure of the systolic pumping,or the lack of atherosclerosis.
Medical doctors may need help from Engineers in interpreting things out of their field.
Can you explain more? so having low diastolic pressure fine or bad? my dia bp is around 60-67 mmHg and I am 24.

High onset blood pressure is typically a symptom of something else like metabolic syndrome, check your HBA1C
Good call Gregarious. We just published a video on that. It's called "The Root Cause of High Blood Pressure."
The differential between Systolic and Diastolic blood pressure corresponds to Aorta contractile resistance. If the differential gets too wide this indicates an Aorta with lack of expansion. If the differential gets too low the resulting situation is the aorta is too expansive. That wide differential starves the heart of blood flow to sustain tissue. It would appear the study says that an overly contractive aorta is the big risk factor. This corresponds to study from LVAD and IABP treatments. I would say the aorta condition is more important than the heart itself from this study.

This study was encouraging and at the same time annoying to me. Why can’t the medical community ever get anything right the first time. 81 years old, BP resting about 115/62, pulse 52, typical. With a low pulse, would not the diastolic be low because of the length of time between pulses?
@@LeeCom Take an extreme, if pulse was, sat, 20, diastolic would certainly drop. By the same principle, an exercise induced pulse rate should make the high and low pressure come closer together. For me, the difference stays about 60, so likely aortic stiffness. 82 years old now, but making improvements through lifestyle changes.
Over 60 BP is 130/85 normal
What if you have normal systolic and higher number in diastolic ?
See 6:16
I wish still every doctor used Mercury Spygmamometer because majority of digital meter shows wrong reading.
What about a systolic that is low (below 120) but diastolic that is above 80.
They love to push bp drugs by having unreasonable low measurements. I've had marginal high my whole life. In my 70s now. Eat healthy and exercise regularly but doctors have this thing about lowering it.
The one thing is to limit sodium.
I have Hyperaldosteronism. My blood pressure was 199/100. With medicine it is now 122/62. The last two months, it is the first time I have ever had diastolic of 62. It has never been this low. I have atherosclerosis, but my nurse Practioner isn't concerned.
You can't believe anything these medical grifters say.
I've worked with enough pumps to know that the single greatest predictor of longevity is the head pressure at startup. Pumps that have to start up against a high head pressure (back pressure) fail sooner than those with a lesser load. There's no reason to think this would be any different for a 4-chambered, positive displacement pump like a heart. The lower the diastolic pressure at the beginning of the pulse, the easier it is for the pump to start. It's also more volumetrically efficient - this should be completely obvious - the lower the back pressure, the lower the discharge pressure required to get the valves opened and fluid flowing. Obviously having too low a pressure is bad for other reasons; we actually need a minimal volume of blood flowing constantly; and the inlet side needs enough available volume to fully fill the atrial chambers within the timeframe it has. But anything above the minimum should be sufficient. And that's not to detract from high systolic pressure being a problem. Higher systolic pressure strains the walls of the chambers and puts higher demands on the valves between atrial and ventricle chambers. But both numbers are a problem if they're too high for too long.
nonsense. heart is not a "pump". heart is not a "device". it is an organ...
@@btudrus And a muscle is not a hydraulic cylinder. But in either case, more load = more force required. And you're wrong, the heart absolutely is a pump. An ic pump.
@@kurtcpi5670 " But in either case, more load = more force required."
So what? That is irrelevant with regard to longevity.
The only thing that matters is whether the heart can regenerate itself enough or not. And that has NOTHING to do with pressure / mechanical stress / etc.
It has all to do with metabolism, autophagy / mitophagy, insulin levels and metabolic state of the cell (the Warburg effect induced by fructose)...
@@btudrus Here's a thought. Do a Google search for "Does high blood pressure cause heart failure", and then follow the links to ANY reputable medical publication (Mayo, Johns Hopkins, etc.) and see what they have to say about it. Pure common sense dictates that long-term stress on any energetic mechanism, mechanical or biological, will wear it out faster. And high blood pressure causes kidney failure and vascular damage leading to other factors that exacerbate coronary artery disease, further contributing to heart disease. Life processes are a downward spiral toward total system failure and ultimate death (no one gets out alive), but high blood pressure is a sure-fire way to get to the end sooner.
My doctor was concerned because when my diastolic pressure went down there was more risk of fainting rather than heart attacks. I nearly fainted several times when I stood ip on the he medication.

I failed an EMT course in Massachusetts in 1976 [you could get the Emergency Medical Technician certification with just 80 hours training in those days] because I couldn't get the diastolic blood pressure consistently. I had no trouble with the systolic. Now it turns out it wouldn't have mattered.
I have plotted BP against weight loss and consistently discover a drop from high to normal once I cross a threshold weight. The reverse is also true. That threshold may be different for everyone but so-called idiopathic high blood pressure responds to maintaining a healthy weight. Live long and prosper.
that's wrong.
both BP and weight are just symptoms of metabolic health / inuslin levels...
What about those with normal systolic and high diastolic.
She reads out the study finds incorrectly. The study found that heart attack risk falls with every unit decease in DIASTOLIC blood pressure, not Systolic. This was found to be true even in people who have lower than normal disatolic levels.
Diastolic is BP at rest and systolic is when the heart pumps. If you have high systolic you are heart attack risk. If you have high diastolic what are you at risk for? Stroke.
That depends on the definition of high and which country check out India BP standards.

@@jansix4287 People have had low blood pressure LOOOOONNNG before Covid. So although that may be a thing, it's irrelevant to this discussion. And what do you mean by "abnormally" low blood pressure? How do you define that?
@@spocksvulcanbrain You already defined it as being "dizzy up on standing" a.k.a. fatigue. Low blood pressure won’t make your blood vessels burst, but it can stop you from being able to stand up or sit upright. It’s a sequelae of a heavy infection. The adrenals no longer produce enough hormones to regulate the blood pressure up when needed for taking a few steps. Patients only want to sleep, they are too exhausted to sit on a couch and watch tv and won’t go see a doctor either. Covid only produced much more of those cases and made the fatigue syndrome known to public.

5 cardiologists and my GP took the NO treatment, no concern, approach and it has ruined 12 years of my retirement. I FEEL no issues anytime my systolic is over 110 HOWEVER, I experience a crushing fatigue if the diastolic drops below 70 and a sharp constant pain in my neck if the diastolic drops below 60 [it has been as low as 35 rendering me useless for any task]. They are not even honest enough to admit their is no medication for this low diastolic condition and never even mentioned the 2 possible causes: A leaky valve [don't have one] or with age the stiffening of arteries which limits their ability to keep the diastolic pressure up in between heart beats. For the last 12 years ONLY my electrophysiologist has been able to address my Afib but of course that has no affect on diastolic pressure.
Don't you think you should also point out the danger of a high pulse pressure? The problems associated with a large difference between diastolic pressure and systolic pressure? There is evidence that high pulse pressure is associated with high increase in heart attack probabilities. I had blood pressures of 160/50 but my doctor recommended only high pressure reduction. When I insisted on seeing a cardiologist a faulty aortic valve and atrial flutter were revealed and urgent surgery prescribed. I'm fine! The low diastolic pressure was a clue to a heart problem however.
My pressure is all over the place Now it is 166/87 . I have seen it lower than 89/56.

BP Medication is the only control only. What is more important is to live a more healthy lifestyle by watching your diet (especially salt, fats & sugar) and doing exercises and try to reduce mental stress. Exercises need not be vigorous but customized to your health conditions. If you can’t run, go brisk walking or strolls at pace your heart & physical conditions can manage. Then slowly increase the frequency and /or pace as your conditions improve. Of course you still need to monitor your BP, heart rate & oxygen level before and after exercises.

Beet root is a great natural supplement to help lower your blood pressure.
It’s carbohydrate which causes HBP. It causes the kidneys to retain salt which means that the increased water retention raises BP. I cut out the carbs and reduced mine from 140/85 to 110/65. Takes about 6 months but no medicine required.
You mean cut out refined, processed 'table salt'. My uncle almost died when he "cut out salt". But when he had sea salt and Himalayan pink salt etc, he bounced back...
@@MrChezyoung Very true, I experienced the same thing
Loose weight??? As opposed to tight weight?
What regulates BP is the arterioles. They have a diameter of 0.5 millimeters or 0.019689 inches. Whatever the brachial or arterial pressure is this is radically lowered by the arterioles, most doctors don't know this. This radical reduction of pressure facilitates a smooth nonfluctuating stream of blood platelets to do their job. And yes folks medical science, a misnomer, can be wrong.
Try going on a plant based diet, i am 100 percent for 9 months now,mycholesterol levels were 6.1, dropped every month,,now at 2.8, blood pressure down too, and using ZERO pills, feeling fantastic, sleep loverly, and also lost 18kg, now at 75kg height 1.79m
It also reduces your testosterone and libido..fact
Vegan can actually be a good intervention, although there are better ways. However, you are getting past the point of usefulness, and run quite a few risks if you continue. I know you won’t believe me, because if you search on the internet with confirmation bias, you will find many people saying what you want to hear.
I am someone who was raw vegan for about 2 years, as well as being primarily vegan for even longer, with some of the best support available (I worked at the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center for 3-1/2 years). It took more than five years to recover, and I still have lingering effects.
All I can say is don’t believe the hype, and eat what your body evolved to eat over hundreds of thousands of years. (No, that does not include McD’s.)
@@altosack Recover from what?
Only the European, mechanistic paradigm though…this project treats ☯️ and yoga as a blog post or two…these are complete paradigms, both…and vastly superior to the quackery you are focused on.
Ever since I got this Oxford vaccine, I always have had high blood pressure. I've never had this in 2020.
Seems to me a reading of 125 is a sign of a strong heart and a reading of 70-75 is a sign of open and flexible arteries.
Diastolic BP is low then person suddenly false on floor means brain looses control on nervous system why?
Look into Vesugen peptide bioregulator for rejuventation/regeneration of blood vessels and normalization of blood pressure. Black garlic extract also helps a lot.
Hi Vincent. We'll look into black garlic extract more. Thank you.

I have been taking blood pressure meds for about 3 years, and only recently I have been noticing a higher diastolic # especially after waking up. It is usually between 91 and 115. About a half hour later, it goes down to below 90 even if the systolic is still a bit high. Should I look at having my meds altered? I am also on Metformin and blood thinners.
This video’s title is misleading. You still need to be concerned about HIGH diastolic levels, just not about LOW diastolic levels.
Is high diastolic blood pressure will pose any risk coz my blood pressure is 150/115 without medications....let me know....thanks
What is the difference between a "cautioned" approach and a cautious approach?
Male 54, BP 150 / 95, with 50 mg Metoprolol
Want lower blood pressure?
Exercise, beet juice.
You don't talk about the damage to the blood vessels from chronic high blood pressure.
More you exercise, better diastolic blood pressure.
Systolic comes down with less stress, good night's sleep, foods that lower blood pressure.
Diastolic blood pressure is a good clinical indicator of health and amount of exercise you do 😊
It is vanishingly rare for a single study to alter medical care, well unless you are trolling for clicks!
Myself and several people I know have thrown away their blood 🩸 pressure medication 💊 and switched to HAWTHORN BERRY it’s found in food supplement sections but the best I have found is in GNC stores. Inexpensive and a fantastic antioxidant! No side effects and my BP averages 115/75😊❤😊
One observational study does not indicate or invalidate anything. What are the underling assumptions of the Mendelian Randomisation, how many and what were the genetic variations that were applied? Randomised Clinically Controlled Studies are the gold standard for drawing such sweeping conclusions. This study is merely a possible cause for further and hopefully repeatable results.
What if only or mainly the diastolic is too high, around 90 ? Really, forget that ?
I know nobody is perfect. But the medical field and or science has time and time again changed their decisions on some pretty important health issues! This is why I don't have a lot of faith in the health care industry!
Next study will come shortly " Forget your Systolic number". He will also get a Ph.D. Truth is no one knows exactly the real impact on life of Systolic or Diastolic BP. Blind leading the Blind.
I wish the doctors would forget the diastolic number when taking the BP test of a DOT physical, lol.
I suspect that aortic aneurysms change the calculus somewhat making systolic more important than otherwise.
And always its about chemical solutions.
I had high BP and reduced it back to normal in 2 months getting rid of my meds completely. Its called eating g a healthy low carb and zero plant seed oil diet. Try it if you want to live a normal life without chemicals.
Agree. You can dramatically bring down your high blood pressure just by eating healthy. Thanks Ralph.
Question what causes blood pressure PROBLEMS?
Allopathic research keep on contradictory findings . Its own findings .
That's why it is best to follow Ayurvedic and Naturopathic treatment . Additionally no side effects .
Interesting !,, thanks for sharing
Im no doctor but what ive observed
Is any new onset of lower diastolic
Blood pressure say below 55 is a
Warning sign of impending heart
Attack or new onset afib.
Great informative video
Im 53 and my blood pressure is 128-80
My Dr says that's fine for my age.
Normal echocardiogram , ekg, ziopatch
He says no medication needed for those numbers.
Sound okay?
Thank you
Congratulations Michael!
@@HealthyBloodPressure hu
I’ll be 53 this Summer, with some intermittent fasting, healthy carbs, eggs butter, bacon and salt my numbers are very similar. You are apparently living a healthy lifestyle, keep up the Great work!
@@sunrisetacticalgear2676 thank you
May God Bless you with continued good health
But too low diastolic can cause heart arrythmias like afib and problems w cognition.
Except it does matter.
I did notice the medication taken in this video....was a lot....
Also I have WHITE COAT ANXIETY...
if a weight lifters pressure can go up to 350/ 250 during lifting, why is he not at "immanent risk" of a stroke or heart attack?
