Certainly, less salt, more exercise and good rest does wonders too 🙂

The Chinese name for potassium is 钾.[/quote]
Thank u Miss Liew! I remember some of my Chinese-educated teachers telling us that they had to learn both the Chinese and English names for Bio and Chem, really kowtow to them.

Found this meme online (periodic table joke):

I found it so interesting that sodium (scientific elemental name Na) is called 钠 in Chinese. I didnt manage to catch the Chinese name for potassium (K) though.[/quote]

Currently we are using Pagoda brand’s low sodium salt, but happy to try the K-salt since statistics show we lack sufficient K intake.

[quote]Singaporeans are consuming too much salt and plans are in place to get people to cut their sodium intake by about 15 per cent over the next five years.

To do so, the Health Promotion Board (HPB) will urge Singaporeans to replace their regular salt with lower-sodium alternatives, which are considered healthier. It will work with retailers to make these substitutes more affordable.

The board will also ensure there is a greater variety of lower-sodium sauces and seasonings in shops and launch a public education campaign.

These details of the national strategy to cut sodium consumption were outlined by the board on Wednesday. The strategy was first announced during the Budget debate in March.

The diet of Singaporeans has become higher in salt over the years. In 2019, a Singaporean took on average 3,600mg of sodium a day, up from about 3,300mg in 2010. The amount is well above the World Health Organisation's recommended daily salt intake of not more than 2,000mg or about one teaspoon.

A 15 per cent reduction will see the daily sodium intake of Singaporeans fall to around 3,100mg.

Studies have found that excessive sodium consumption results in high blood pressure which can lead to heart attacks and strokes.[/quote][youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xR10vmvWdbA]

Hi.. my mum has high blood pressure and so I have looked into a variety of ways of dealing with it.


As some people have mentioned - reducing salt and sugar is great start. I have come across research which has found that blueberries help, and nitrogen rich foods such as beets. The other supporting factors are eating organic oily fish and reducing your stress levels.

Hello
Why don't you buy https://www.mightyape.co.nz/supplements-vitamins/supplements for your mother.

Your blood is your body’s transport system. It carries both nutrients and oxygen to the tissues of your body. It also carries waste products away from the tissues and helps maintain body temperature. To do these things, your blood must circulate continuously. If you are dehydrated your blood is thicker, what this means is your heart has to work harder to push that thick blood around, your blood is 95% water. If your blood is too thick it cannot circulate properly you will become acidic. Remember, degenerative diseases start in an acidic environment.
Acidification of the body starts in the blood. As mentioned before, the blood performs a balancing acts in order to maintain the blood pH within the safe range of 7.3 to 7.45. The blood has a buffer pool of sodium bicarbonate made to neutralize strong acid compounds coming out of the cells as waste products of metabolism. When this buffer level is too low, acidosis is developed.

Acidosis and high blood pressure

Dr. Kancho Kuninaka, one of the pioneers of the ionized alkaline water treatment in Japan, states that virtually without exception, the patients with high blood pressure have an acidosis condition. He has many successful clinical cases where the acid free high pH ionized alkaline water lowered blood pressure.

There are several plausible explanations for this phenomenon. Since the higher pH blood contains excess oxygen, the heart does not have to work as hard. Another factor may be that the viscosity of higher pH blood is low so that the heart does not need to pump as hard. A further reason may be that the calcium ions ( ionic minerals) in ionized alkaline water may be dissolving plaque and cholesterol build-up in the artery walls, thus opening up the passage.
You need to understand how important the structure of the water molecule is at the cellular level. Bottle water, tap water, sodas, sports drinks molecules are in large clusters from 30-100, the cell will not recognized this as water, the water will then go around the cell and out the door.

Ionized alkaline water is in small clusters of 3-5 molecules, the cell then will recognize this as water, and the cell will then absorb the water molecules and hydrate the blood, causing the blood to be thinner, lowering your blood pressure. You see the structure of the water is more important then the chemical compound.
Be sides thinning the blood you are also flushing out the acidic build up in your cells, which also cause high blood pressure. You cannot do that with bottle water or tap water.
The medications the doctors give you to thin your blood has major side affects, ionized alkaline water has no side affects, it’s your choice.

Doctors know that if you take several deep breaths right before the blood pressure measurement, you can get a lower reading. You have temporarily elevated the pH of the blood by breathing out more CO2 and by breathing in more O2. If you can lower your blood pressure by using this trick, your blood pressure is caused by the first two reasons in the above paragraph and you should be able to lower your blood pressure within a few months of drinking the alkaline water.

I have been blessed by receiving free kangen water, if anyone wants to try water, I will pay it forward too. Please let me know and pm me. otherwise you can visit http://2306584.yourbodyiswater.info/

CJS:
I have not seen anyone whose BP come down after taking Hawthorn Berries yet. My husband and I have just started this drink for about 2 weeks. Will update you later.

Forgotten about this update that I was supposed to give. After many months (I think more than 9 months) of consuming hawthorn berries as tea, my dh bp medication has been cut by half and it has remained like that since. However, the good thing is that now he no longer gets spikes in bp on and off which he used to get despite being on medication. You may try this cheap method but you have have patience cos this works very slowly.
