Lost about 15 lbs so far. nothing really radical. I think the 8-10 Advil I'm taking per day for sore muscles (and my trashed right wrist) probably help with the BP..
DOT physical and drinking mustard

Advil won't help.. aspirin is a blood thinner, advil is not aspirin. Changing you diet and walking is what helped

My BP has never been higher than 138... I have a buddy who is in good shape and was running marathons 4-5 years ago... his unmedicated BP has always been over 160, ever since he was 25 or so. Genetics, I suppose.
-
BP could be genetic, but I believe that it is more environmental. If you are raised on high fat foods and get little exercise growing up you are more likely to mimic that same behavior as you grow older. I think that diet and lifestyle has more to do with BP and most other ailments than genetics.

Tobacco use plays a large part in it too.

Not with me, never has, but I agree.

You can get it at most heath food stores and it taste good. Put it in my pancakes and cereal. I know other guys that have used it for years and they no longer take blood pressure meds. AND NO it is not pot and has zero THC in it.
AfterShock Thanks this. -
Individual reports of decreased bp in conjunction with taking aspirin are anecdotal.rocknroll81 Thanks this. -
Shoot me for changing topic, but I haven't really found a updated post on this. But how is the DOT hearing test now-a-days? I have had 3 sets of tubes put in my ear due to hearing loss and unfort. I do suffer from minor hearing loss (not enough for hearing aids). Do they still stand 5 feet behind you and whisper?
