Sounds ridiculous, doesn't it? Well, that's what many renowned natural health practitioners refer high blood pressure to.What causes hypertension or high blood pressure? Some people think it's being overweight, stress, salt and a host of other factors.
Here's another idea. Your blood becomes dirty. Normally,
dirt is filtered out by liver. But eventually your liver gets dirty too. So your blood can't flow easily through liver, and it gets blocked. Often medical doctors put patients on blood thinners to thin it out to work it through liver.
But problem is, that filter still has to filter. And if it's dirty, it can't do job. So course of wisdom would be to detox and strengthen liver.
Conventional allopathic medicine assures us that there is no cure for hypertension--only control which must be continued for life. Often this control consists of daily medication which is in form of strong chemical diuretics. These chemicals leach potassium out of body at an astounding rate. The leached potassium is then replaced by administration of inorganic caustic chemical potassium which does more harm than good. The kidneys can become overworked by processing of these drugs.
Why not go to cause of hypertension instead of merely treating symptoms? Naturally, we have been provided with herbs and foods that will totally provide for proper chemical balance of potassium and sodium in body, as well as stimulate sluggish livers.
In nature, ratio of sodium to potassium is about 1 to 5. Man has altered this state by ingestion of massive amounts of salt in diet. We are able to assimilate about 20 grains (the small salt particles) a day into our human system. The average American man ingests about one teaspoon of salt a day. This comes in processed foods, such as cheese, processed meats, breads, snacks, etc., as well as additional salt from old salt shaker.
