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.

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.
