HBP is the leading cause of kidney disease, strokes, and heart attacks. Our lifestyles play a huge role especially in "modern foods" and the accumulation of toxicity in the body.

Just started following you and was recently diagnosed with high blood pressure. It was a wake up call as I’ve been overweight most of my life and my dr started having me take blood pressure pills. As of this month I started the journey of getting more active and changing my diet. Almost 3 weeks in and I have lost 10 pounds so far and tested my blood pressure yesterday and it’s now normal 132/85. I feel better already and am going to keep going.

Yes, I’m an RN & I have the 2 lifetime issues- HTN & High Cholesterol- I work in the ER & that job in & of itself stresses you out and is the culprit. Yesterday, I felt great, took my pressure and it was 171/106- I hit the deck! Not me! I’m always eating salad, fruits, drinking water- I know what to do, take my meds religiously- and I’ve been off work for a month now- so, my question is why? I’m doing everything right & I’ve been off work- relaxing- point being- It’s a silent killer & something you must constantly monitor because you just don’t know what can cause your pressure to elevate- I assume something I ate was loaded with sodium because I did eat a few things that’s not my norm- And you just said HOT SAUCE! I ate so much of it, last week putting it all over my steamed fish! There you go- I never thought of that! Thanks!! I’m going to FAST - drink water for 3 days to restart my clock & then eat fruits, salads for the duration/ water & teas only- I know not to eat sugar, flour etc…already…. This will bring it down in addition to exercise and rest. I admire you! I thank you- keep on keeping on🥰❤️

I started the cleanse and started eating plant based food on Feb 22. As of yesterday, I’ve lost 17 pounds, reduced bp from 150/100 to 128/88, and reduced cholesterol by 80 back to normal. It’s just been like 6 weeks!!! PLANT POWER MEDICINE!!!

Another bonus. 12. Cutting off or restricting and staying away from family members and friends who cause you stress will lower your blood pressure. 😂

Hello Mr Wow!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ I am on medication for high bp. My bp was reading lower than 120/77. Suddenly, after receiving some bad news, it went to 200/100, now 159/90. Fortunately, the mighty increase changed within a few hours. Five days after the might increase, it is still very high. My doctor suggested that I do a bp diary for a week. I need to control my stress of life.
Medication doesn't work if we are under stress.
The fact of the matter is that our bp is constantly changing. We need to keep it in the normal range.
Thank you for a very informative video.
❤🎉❤

These are the type of video's that should get over a billion views!!! Thanks Dr P!!🗣🔥🔥🔥

I know so many people eating themselves to death, so it makes me happy to see somebody grabbing on to the only REAL solution and getting healthy with real food. I got off my blood pressure meds five years ago by stopping eating all that JUNK.

Thanks doc. I grew up in DC and they knew me at every Popeyes chicken and McDonalds in the DMV area. My blood pressure was 185/100. I didn’t want to take meds so I made a deal that I have 3 months to get it down. Doctors told me if I couldn’t that I would not see 50 years old. I was awful person. mpI was screaming at my child and nearly exploded. So, I started doing jumping jacks to my favorite childhood songs, push-ups, and now I’m 57 and eating a bunch of salads, avocados, sauerkraut and salmon and feeling like a million dollars. Walks in the sun and 5-10 minutes of relaxed breathing and prayer have also helped. Great job doc bc HBP ain’t no joke!

[RodneyHamilton-fq]

I love the fact that he didn't give medical advice he simply just told you what he did that helped his blood pressure go down.

Also properly dealing with spiritual issues. Anger, resentment, bitterness and unforgiveness are a root cause to high blood pressure. When you are eating healthy, exercising, watching your stress level, eliminate underlying health issues and the readings are still high, then most likely it is a spiritual root cause.

I literally just stumbled upon your videos yesterday and have been streaming them all afternoon. This particular video made me jump up, run to the cabinet and look at the salt content of my hot sauce. I thought it was mainly red pepper. Mind blown. My blood pressure was typically about 170/90 (I take nothing) and I’m a pre diabetic 60 year old black female. I have been on a journey to health since January 2023 and trying not to become a statistic. I am proud of how far I’ve come so far but I can’t even begin to tell you how your videos have fueled me even more.

[brendahebert]

I’ve been fighting high blood pressure… I’ve lost 30 pounds, still having HBP. I’m going to start doing what you did, Thank you for sharing. 👏🏻🙋‍♀️❤️

I worked with a lady who end up going on disability because she had to do dialysis 5 days a week. I asked her if she was a diabetic and she said no it was due to hypertension. I asked her to repeat herself and she said yes hypertension. That was the time I learned that high blood pressure could damage the kidney.

After spending half my working life in the fitness industry which Included working with cardiac rehab, GP referral groups and apparently healthy individuals. Now approaching my mid sixties I find myself dealing with both high BP and cholesterol issues. Its not so easy when you have to take yourself in hand and make lifestyle changes. My doctor was quick with medications but nothing regarding education, prevention or dietary advice. Thank you so much for this information, very helpful..
