Hello, you’re listening to High Blood Pressure Wellness Lifestyle Podcast with Donna Williams.  Living a heart healthy lifestyle for better cardiovascular health is important and possible now more than ever. Cardiologist typically prescribe medications instead of exploring preventive measures you can commit to. 

I am Donna Williams, Certified Holistic Health Coach, owner and creator of info-on-high-blood-pressure.com website.

Today’s topic is on Living A Heart Healthy Lifestyle For Better Cardiovascular Health!

High blood pressure affects nearly half of the world's population, with all its risk factors and consequences increasing. Even with the medical advances that repairs clogged arteries, and to even replacing the entire failing heart, it is still the number #1 killer.

The first major line of defense for living a heart healthy lifestyle is the monitoring of what you put into your mouth every day. It's all about gradual, incremental changes. 

So how do you go about being more heart-healthy? It's simple, in short you eat well, stress less, move more and love more.

Some of the ways you can lower your blood pressure is consuming an optimal diet for the heart that includes a healthy balance of good fats, lean protein and complex carbs that are important sources of fiber.

People becomes very reluctant when it comes to making changes. I’ll mention that cardiovascular disease complications are so prevalent the odds are you'll die from some form of it, be it heart attack, high blood pressure, stroke, or other diseases of the heart and blood vessels.   I started eating mindfully and you can too, starting right now.

The cardiovascular system carries: Your food. Oxygen. Waste matter. The good news is lifestyle modifications provides a powerful measure of protection against diseases of the heart and blood vessels.

My first alternatives treatment to Lower Blood Pressure was acupressure.
Herbal healing is the first system of healing to treat disease.
Natural Herbs I’m recommending that relaxes the heart muscles are:  Hawthorn Berries.
