Between buying the perfect gift, attending holiday parties, and dealing with family dynamics, it's easy to let the holidays get the best of you. But it doesn't have to be that way! 

    Hi, I’m Donna Williams, Certified Holistic Health Coach, owner and creator of infoonhbp.com website. I run short, whole foods based group detox for beginners that focuses on whole grains, lean proteins, and lots of fresh produce. It has an easy-to-follow protocol, and it runs for just 5 days. 

    I work with people who have high blood pressure, and with women of color. The best part of working with my clients is that I get to help them shift their habits, so they are able to lower their blood pressure with results that impress even their doctors, all the while still eating food that tastes good.

    Hello, you’re listening to High Blood Pressure Wellness Lifestyle Podcast with Donna Williams. A healthy metabolism is essential for many aspects of our lives, from energy levels and moods to weight control and overall health. However, when your metabolism isn't working as it should, it can lead to fatigue, difficulty with weight loss or gain, and even poor digestion.

    Hi, I'm Donna Williams, and I run short, whole foods based detoxes for beginners. With my detox program, I help my community get back on track with their eating, so they feel better, have more energy, and even drop a few pounds. I love working with people who have high blood pressure, and I particularly enjoy working with women of color.

    Today’s Episode is on the Six Metabolism Insights You Should Know!

    Metabolism is the sum of all physical and chemical changes taking place in your living cells. It includes all the reactions by which the body obtains and spends the energy from food.  So, let me break it down.

    • Metabolism: Is The Grand Conductor of Your Body's Energy - Think of your metabolism as the grand conductor of an orchestra, directing the tempo, setting the pace, and ensuring everything runs in perfect harmony.
    • Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): Your Body's Idle Speed.
    • What Shapes Your Metabolic Rate? It's More Than Just Genes!
    • Boosters On The Horizon: Can We Turbocharge Our Metabolism?
    • Eating And Metabolism: The Thermic Effect.
    • A Balancing Act: Weight and Metabolism.

    Medically it said its “a cluster of biochemical and physiological abnormalities associated with the development of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes”

  • Top Plant Based Sources of Calcium That You’re Going Love!

    Send us a text

    Hello, you’re listening to High Blood Pressure Wellness Lifestyle Podcast with Donna Williams. Do you know calcium is the most abundant mineral in your body and is 2 percent of your total body weight? It helps to regulate the heartbeat and is required for healthy bones, strong teeth, muscle contractions, blood clothing, and the release of important neurotransmitters. Discover how important calcium, the connection it has to your blood pressure and the power of targeted nutritional supplements.

    I’m Donna Williams, Certified Holistic Health Coach. I teach the principles of clean eating by offering aShort Whole Foods Cleanse Program a process in transforming your health, life, and reset your eating habits before the holidays hit within a week.

    Plant-based sources are an excellent way to get your daily dose of calcium, and don’t underestimate the power of targeted nutritional supplements.

    I read about Joan and what a program of targeted nutritional supplements did for her. She was a patient of Dr. Julian Whittaker. She enrolled in his weeklong program and was placed on a comprehensive nutritional supplements program of vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, herbs and coenzyme Q10. She exercised, ate a diet designed to lower blood pressure,  just like my Overcome High Blood Pressure and Thrive Coaching Program.

    She left the program with recommendations to target nutritional supplements, and the continuation of what she was eating and doing for that week. She returned two years later for a follow-up - her circulation was great and her energy was better than before.

    Plant-based sources of calcium will help provide you with optimal health that’s necessary for normal sodium-potassium balance and best of all is instrumental in both blood pressure regulation and insulin utilization.  Let’s look at some of the best plant-based sources of calcium and why they are so important. 

     Almonds; Kale; Beans and Lentils; Tofu.

    Of extreme importance is the older you are, the more important it is for you to be taking nutritional

  • Eating Well To Protect Your Heart So You Can Live Well!

    Send us a text

    Hello, you’re listening to High Blood Pressure Wellness Lifestyle Podcast with Donna Williams. Elsie was a healthy looking 58-year-old woman with no apparent medical problems. She was one of those people who rarely got sick, so she didn’t see the need to see a doctor. But one day without warning Elsie suddenly began to feel weak and confused. The left-side of her body went numb, she suffered a stroke. That was her first sign of hypertension.

    Eating the right kinds of food is key to a healthy heart that can help keep your arteries clear.

    Fruits such as citrus fruits, berries, apples, and vegetables like spinach, kale, callaloo, collard greens, and sweet potatoes are also full of antioxidants and fiber, which can help improve circulation and lower blood pressure. Nuts such as almonds, walnuts, pecans, and pistachios provide benefits from essential fatty acids, which can promote better cardiac functioning.

    Eating healthy is one of the most important factors in living a long, healthy life.  I know its not always easy to make healthy eating choices, but here are some tips for making it easier to eat well:  Plan Ahead! Find Alternatives to Fast Food! Embrace Leftovers!


    Like Elsie, 4 out of 5 people are completely unaware that they have hypertension at all. Unlike chronic coughs that may signal a respiratory disorder, there are no warning signs of hypertension hammering away at your organs for many years.

    Your heart becomes overworked and begins to falter. Your blood vessels wear down under this relentless pounding that is high blood pressure with your heart, kidneys, brain and nervous system all suffering serious damage.

    How do you start eating healthy when you feel like it's an overwhelming task. The key is to start small by incorporating simple, healthy habits into your lifestyle. Or join my 5-day whole foods cleanse that starts the process of your transformation. Our liver and other organs are unable to really manage well the glut of toxin within the environment we live in.  This is where a whole food cleanse can be of great assistance. By providing  an e

    High Blood Pressure is a life-threatening condition that must be managed but it doesn't mean your life is over.

    Then your doctor will prescribe a medication that will be appropriate for your body type, more than likely your doctor will tell you to monitor your blood pressure, probably daily to start.
