I need to unplug my brain from obsessing over my blood pressure as you speak about in your other video. Enjoy yourself Doc :)

In his book "The Comfort Crises", Michael Easter describes a term used by the Japanese called "shinrin-yoku". It means "forest bathing". It invites us to take a break from our busy lives and connect with nature. I try to take nature hikes at least once a week. That is how I "unplug". I have been able to get my BP close to 120/80. Of course I am still taking 1/2 BP pill in the morning but still working on getting off of that. I look forward to your next video!

Dr Joe, with the sauna, I feel like passing out in it since I developed HBP unlike when I didnt . Any tips to manoeuvre this difficulty?

@drjoetvMD

2 ай бұрын

It takes some getting used to. You have to come to terms with the fact you'll be in temperatures of 75 degrees Celsius (167 degrees Fahrenheit). That can be uncomfortable for anyone but you have to learn to withstand it. You'll sweat. Your BP will be fantastic and your sleep later will be awesome. Of course, if it's not for you, then it's not for you but your first few sessions can be challenging. Something you can do is have a cold or semi-cold shower before going in

Hi Dr Joe, dont too much heat causes heat stroke? Wouldn't this affect loves one with HBP

Always consult with your physician first of all to assess your specific suitability. But I can confirm that sauna is a nice treatment for high BP. Regular use of sauna helps lower BP

Thank you Doc. When I see 110/65 am afraid to take medication that it should not be too low. Could I still be taking the medication ? Thanks Doc.

Great BP, you do not want it to go any lower than that. 👍

@drjoetvMD

2 ай бұрын

It depends. Is it low because of the medication you are taking in which case you have to continue to keep it same or is it low because your lifestyle is way better and healthier than what it was in which case you should have a conversation with your doctor about dose reduction or discontinuation

I unplug in my garden.

Another thought is It’s because some people have the MTHFR gene. You Can’t methylate B vitamins and other amino acids so you will be anxious and have high blood pressure. You have a protein in your body called homocysteine. when you can’t methylate that protein it becomes high in your blood, and constrict your blood vessels. You can take SAMe supplement for your anxiety. The methylated B vitamins, lower homocystine In essence curing your high blood pressure. You never had a problem with your heart or blood vessels. You just can’t methylate B vitamins. You need to supplement with L-Methionine, that will help immensely lower your anxiety level. Also Nattokinase is a game changer. You can’t take it if you are on blood thinners.

Turkey has some good sandy beaches and their currency was recently devalued by 50 percent. That's good for tourists. The locals are upset with the current government causing some unrest and Turkey has been at war with Syria for over a decade.... That's never good. The legal system is Not good if you have any problems with the law. And the waters on the beaches could be warmer
