Hello there! Wow you
Hello there!
Wow you sound like I did. Im excited to share with you something that really helped me. My BP was 165/90! And my everyday activities were a burdon instead of a blessing. I felt like i didnt have the energy or the will to clean or do the yardwork or even go to work. i was miserable. But a good friend of mine saved my life. He introduced to me a whole food suppliment called MILA by a company called LifeMax. I started taking it for only a week. at the end of the week i went in to see my doctor and he was amazed. my BP dropped to 128/80! He asked me what the hell i did i only a week! I told him about MILA. It also helped me feel alive again. I couldnt believe that i was living in such a bad state of mind for so long. now i feel great. If you want more information on MILA go to there website.

It is hard for others, family members, to understand that even if you don't look sick and weak, you are. Perhaps you can find articles on line or in books for her to read and understand. Keep working with your doctor and keep educating your daughter.

You shouldn't dismiss a
You shouldn't dismiss a remedy like herbals for treating high blood pressure because they can be very good alternatives other than drugs. Besides, some people cannot tolerate prescription drugs to treat high blood pressure and have to seek other means of treatment. I am one such person and have good results from using natural therapies. There are even certain foods that actually reduce high blood pressure. I am a living testimony to that!
