Publisher's Synopsis
High blood pressure can cause strokes, heart attacks and congestive heart failure. Although prescription drugs may effectively lower blood pressure, they have potentially very dangerous side effects. Fortunately, there are natural alternatives to lowering blood pressure and preventing these serious health conditions. In LOWER BLOOD PRESSURE WITHOUT DRUGS, best-selling author, Roger Mason, provides a proven nutritional approach to lowering blood pressure safely and naturally. The book begins by explaining what hypertension is, what causes it and how it is diagnosed. From there, it goes on to describe how a simple diet, rich in whole grains and low in fat, can improve both blood pressure and general health. This is followed by chapters that address such key topics as the best nutritional supplements to take; which exercises are most effective; how to maintain hormonal balance and, just as important, how to overcome poor dietary and lifestyle habits. Also included is a scientifically valid diet and exercise programme that is easy to follow and incorporate into your lifestyle.
