Life saver!
I apoligize in advance for the long review but it's absolutely necessary. I was diagnosed with high bp in my early 20's but it was nowhere near this high. I just turned 32 & was considered to be in a "hypertensive crisis". My bp had been in the 200/100 range & then was coasting in the 180/100 something range in the past couple months & honestly maybe longer but I had only recently became aware when I started having chest pains & slight muscle weakness. Scared me enough to go to the hospital & they did 2 ekg's, basic lab work & a chest xray but said nothing was wrong & sent me home with a prescription of course. Important to note after requesting a full panel, my vitamin D levels were super low, my cholesterol was slightly high & I was told i'm prediabetic. Reluctantly for 2 weeks I took 5mg amlodipine & was also prescribed 25 mg of hydrochlorothiazide which I discontinued because it made me feel depleted. (yes I know they say don't quit meds without a dr's consent) but I had to advocate for myself & listen to my body. In that time I had started getting active, meditating & staying away from fast food because with me working from home, I sit most of the time as well as doordash almost every day sometimes multiple times a day. This was years of poor habits catching up to me. So I started doing alot of research & my loved ones were sending me things as well when I came across hawthorne berry in a book of lost herbal remedies. I am determined to take the holistic route. Within 3 days of taking this suppliment once in the a.m. & once at night, (I empty the pill in water & drink it) my bp went from 183/109 to 144/86. My goal bp according to the Dr. is 130/80. I have no doubt I will reach that shortly. It doesn't taste bad at all & does make you feel relaxed yet energized. I'm so happy I tried this because I got so discouraged on the meds seeing the # stay high & feeling like crap. I will continue to monitor my progress & update if needed. Please get checked for vitamin/mineral deficiencies because they can cause this & so much more to go wrong & majority of us are deficient in the most important things. Remember everything we need to heal ourselves is already available. You just have to make the decision to do the work. Clean up your eating. Do some type of physical activities throughout the week & also work on your mental health because it all goes together. You can do this!
