High Blood Pressure- The Silent Killer

Experts say 80% of strokes can be prevented.ย The single best way to do that is to get your blood pressure in the healthy range. That means lower than 120/80.

If your blood pressure is consistently 130/80 or higher, you have hypertension.
Your top number is your systolic pressure, which is the pressure on your arteries when your heart is pumping blood. The lower number, or diastolic pressure, is the pressure in between beats, or when your heart is at rest.
Hypertension puts your arteries under constant stress. As with a tire thatโs been overpumped, too much force inside your blood vessels damages the artery walls and makes them weaker.
In almost 9 out of 10 cases, you have a stroke because something, usually a clot, blocks the flow of blood to the brain. Doctors call this an ischemic stroke. The clots happen more often with high blood pressure because it speeds up arteriosclerosis, a condition that makes your arteries get harder, narrower, and clogged with fatty plaque.
High blood pressure also makes you more likely to have atrial fibrillation. It causes blood to collect in the heart, where a clot can form. AFib is very dangerous because it raises your chances of stroke FIVEFOLD!
Strokes are also caused by bleeding in or around the brain. These are โhemorrhagicโ strokes. They tend to be more serious and deadlier than clot-based ones. A weak blood vessel breaks open, usually because of an aneurysm, a spot that has ballooned up from pressure. High blood pressure damages arteries and makes them more likely to tear or burst.

Many of you know I have Stage 5 kidney failure. I first realized I had kidney failure when I was hospitalized 6 years ago with unusual water retention and fatigue. After 6 weeks in the hospital, 2 weeks in a medically induced coma, and emergency dialysis, I learned my life was changed forever. I needed a kidney transplant to live a normal life. In the meantime, I would require being hooked up to a dialysis machine for 4 hours, 3 times per week, just to stay alive.

Well, it wasnโt just one thing but the main cause was uncontrolled high blood pressure. Constant high blood pressure is one of the main causes of kidney failure. I had a high stress job managing my investment firm, I drank too much alcohol, I dabbled in drugs, and I was a social smokerโ The perfect combination of ingredients for high blood pressure.
And like many men, I never went to the doctor. I figured I had everything under control. I knew I had high blood pressure but it wasnโt THAT high so I simply ignored it. To call me stupid would be an understatement.
When my good friend and partner, Todd Mitchell, and I started Super Anti-Aging Nutrition, I was excited to bring to market nutritional supplements that could improve peopleโs health and help alleviate some of the health issues so many of us suffer from, particularly as we get older.
High blood pressure (hypertension) was number 1 on my list. So many people suffer from uncontrolled high blood pressure and unfortunately the medical profession is flawed in how it addresses this and so many other ailments.
The entire medical profession is designed to put bandaids on symptoms. Most drugs arenโt cures, theyโre just bandaids. Show a doctor a symptom and theyโll prescribe a pill for it. Herein lies the problemโ if you want to cure the ailment, you need to eliminate the root cause. While a good doctor may suggest lifestyle changes, many simply prescribe pills.
Ask your doctor how well educated he or she his on eastern medicine and herbal remedies and most will laugh at the question. โThatโs not REAL medicine!,โ theyโll tell you.
To that, I say BULLSH**!
Food is medicine and any doctor that disputes that has their head buried in the sand(1). When I was first diagnosed with kidney failure, I was put on a renal diet that INCLUDED highly processed foods such as refined white flour, and white rice and EXCLUDED foods such as wheat, brown rice, seeds, dairy, and all potassium rich foods such as beets, avocado, banana, kale, spinach, nuts and beans.
Now Iโm not going to argue that there arenโt justifiable medical reasons behind these kidney failure dietary recommendations but, as a whole, Iโve learned that the recommended renal diet is archaic. I eat ALL of those EXCLUDED foods and Iโm currently in the best shape of my life despite all the statistics that told me Iโd be dead by now.

Because of proper, balanced nutrition and exercise and VERY CAREFUL monitoring of my monthly lab results. I had to become my own best health advocate by researching and understanding kidney disease and learning what all of my monthly lab results actually meant. I learned the hard way that despite my doctors best intentions, most of them were just going through the motions, telling patients the same crap the profession has been telling patients since the creation of dialysis back in the 1940โs. Itโs important to note that in the past 5 years the National Kidney Foundation has finally changed their tune on the renal diet to start including many of the off-limits healthy foods they had been telling patients to avoid.
Not only did I shift my diet mainly toward fruits and vegetables, I studied up on herbal remedies for the various ailments I was suffering from, such as high stress levels, high blood pressure, and arthritic pain, to see what natural remedies may be available to help me get and stay healthy.

During my extensive research I learned the value of Nitric Oxide production as a vasodilator and how beetroot was one of the best foods/supplements for naturally boosting Nitric Oxide levels and lowering blood pressure. That knowledge began the creation of More Than Beets.
We designed More Than Beets as a natural remedy to help lower blood pressure. During its formulation, we also discussed some of the other issues at the forefront of most peopleโs minds, such as the desire for healthy skin, hair, and joints and, of course, disease prevention. So we added collagen peptides and resveratrol to improve skin and joints and boost antioxidants.
Finally, we included L-citrulline malate, a non-essential amino acid, to More Than Beets which further boosts Nitric Oxide and energy levels and improves blood flow to critical organs, including your heart, liver, kidneys, and brain, as well as your muscles.
More Than Beets, with just 4 simple, all-natural ingredients, brings a laundry list of health benefits with no side effects, no prescription needed, no doctors visit, and no outrageous cost, in a great tasting, water soluble powder, that can be used daily to improve your cardiovascular health naturally.
