A year ago I started on a WFPB diet and got grief from everyone including my husband. After a few months I relented and went back to meat just to shut everyone up. Two days ago my doctor visit BP was 186/108. She put me on BP medicine. I am determined to go back to eating plant based.
Don't let people talk you out of eating healthy. I've been around bullies all my life who made fun of me. I'm physically & mentally healthier than any of them. Love my life! I terminated association w/ most of them.
Thanks for specifically covering Blood Pressure.
yeah...my parents used to say I was "high-strung and nervous"....and I admit that I WORRY--my 3 sons all say that I worry too much.....*BUT* I quit adding salt to my food YEARS ago...went plant-strong in 2012. I DO donate blood every 65 days here in Naples FL and they screen all donors for bp ....I've never been turned away and I TRY to use the "4-7-8" breathing technique to calm me down before donating....SO FAR SO GOOD! THANK YOU for this video !

Am joining THIS FOR the first time.
I do all of that and have very high BP.. Diet is not the only cause. Stress is a major cause..

Are you sleeping enough? Exercising every day?
Try cutting out coffee
My husband SCREAMED at me for putting a dash of salt in foods. He drank several sodas a day, ate pizza, greasy hamburgers, bacon, eggs, cheese, ice cream, drank lots of alcohol. Killed over dead at 48 years of age!
I am sorry for your losing your husband
I used to hate chopping vegetables for meals. Now I do it when I'm tired of studying or can't sleep or am bored. It isn't so bad now & I always have whole plant based food to eat in my refridgerator.
Nearly six years now on a plant based diet, but it took nearly a year to get my BP from 140 down to 120, and it was a five day fast that finally did the trick.
Good work, Owen. It took time in my case, too. Maybe a little longer than in yours. But it was so satisfying when the changes finally started registering.
Hello, what fast did you do?
@@justgigi2u Five days water only (with some green tea a couple times each day just for variety). Maybe not good to do this without medical supervision if you have other health problems beyond the slightly raised BP. Hunger went away after the first day! BP has stayed in the 120/70 range since then.

Really i have high blood pressure
I am Jannette and I am on for the very first time. Checking in from Jamaica. How often do you have this presentation. It is very informative and interesting.
Quinoa and lentils with a turmeric mix and a mixed veggie pack. And water. Sometimes I add pepper hot sauce,peanut sauce, sometimes mushrooms onions garlic. I love this meal and a instapot it cooks so fast
Could you PLEASE give step by step recipe? Sounds great
@@cindyleastorch194 yes a direction would help
What's a turmeric mix?

Add enough sugar, salt and fat and you can make a bucket of sand taste good. Hence, I shop almost entirely in the produce aisle.
Controlling your weight takes out 50%of the problem;recently i experimented with beet root&is working wonders.
Mmmmm, oatmeal. Currently eating steel-cut oats every day. Add flaxmeal and walnuts and cinnamon, nutmeg, and cocoa powder with a drizzle of maple syrup. Along with a bowl of fruit and a hand full of Organic Girl super greens (spinach, arugula, baby bok choy, and baby chard), it's the best.
Wow that’s a lot . Are you able to eat anything else throughout the day?
I live in Baltimore MD
@@annejames890 Haha, I do exercise, and I struggle to get enough calories to keep from going into a deficit on the mostly whole-food plant-based diet. I eat two more meals and two substantially-sized snacks.
That's sounds amazing.
Sounds like a kidney stone formula to those of us who have the curse of that! Need to be careful of oxalates content… spinach, almonds, beet tops, etc… what works for one? Doesn’t work for others… please do your homework…
Oh Chuck, you are just the best. What a great interview with such great information. Love you and PCRM.

Thanks for sharing this,I need to lower my. Blood pressure,I will try to eat better and stay away from ,salt and coffee.and less stress.❤
Stay also away from animal flesh and secretions (eggs dairy)
I can definitely agree with drinking hibiscus tea ...it always works for me
Sandra , how much tea do you need to drink during the day to lower the bp ?
@@carmenliedke8659 I drink 2 teacups per day 1 am and 1pm
Thank you
Good day from Bermuda. I've started the Whole Food Plant based lifestyle, primarily to get of HP meds. I thoroughly enjoyed this video and am encouraged in my quest to be ... 'Whole"; BP controlled med free; HEALTHY. Thank you, Chuck and Dr. Yami. God Bless you🙏🏽♥ and Chuck, I'm with you on upgrading my eyeglasses🤓😎
Excellent presentation. Thank you for direct answers to questions.

Ketura from Grenada. Thanks for sharing this very valuable information. We need to get back to our natural herbs/foods.
Am enjoying the program now live.
I actually checked my BP yesterday and my pressure was 110/60 cause i do a lot of walkout and watch my diet.
If blood pressure Is 139/86/78 are u in bad label or in border
@@milangeberdong7351 everyone is different

Great podcast. Very informative.
I am happy to be listening to your forum on High Blood Pressure. Great topic.
African herbs are believed to be most effective to lower or controlling blood pressure.........African potato is good in keeping food cravings at bay "Peel the potato or scrape the skin to clean it ,then chop into chippie chunks and put in a pot .Add water to fill pot take to boiling point and cool the contents pour in a container put in the chiller and drink as ice tea instead of water from the tap .Keeps your tummy sort of bloutedlike and you won't crave for food quicker and you'll get used in drinking the mixture full cup early daily no need to starve your self by fasting days or weeks you get used mixture have medicinal effects in purifying you blood and kidney functionality filtering and cleansing .........
I'm watching from Jamaica, I love this video, it is very interesting,
This was awesome! Thank you Dr. Yami
I do my best to stay plant base and happy to feel good. I have a question about flaxseed, does anyone have a problem with it being too fibre rich to the point being a problem. I made a muffin that uses at the most 2 tablespoons and it seem to work too good for my liking.
Judy from Antigua in the Caribbean, Great information, will try savory oats
Aloha from Big Island Hawai'i ---Violette 💜💙💚💛🧡❤ "where I live there are rainbows"
Great information. My upper blood pressure numbers is always high while the lower one is ok. (145/70)
Me too, Betty. Hopefully we rock the numbers going forward.
Very, very good . Thanks
salt is in canned foods. Tomato sauce, tomato paste, things I like to cook with for convenience, canned mushrooms.
Salt isn't just about high blood pressure. Dr. Greger's video doesn't recommend fermented foods because of stomach cancer. Salt also interferes with calcium absorption according to Dr Greger too.
Curry oatmeal and veggies! make them quick
thick rolled oats
chia seeds
boiling water
garlic
onion
ginger
curry powder
mustard seeds
kolongi seeds
cumin seeds
sweet peppers
ANY VEGGIES SUCH AS THE FOLLOWING:
grated carrots
chopped cabbage
riced cauliflower
artichoke hearts chopped
asparagus chopped
green beans
corn
okra sliced or chopped
zucchini
butter nut squash cubed
etc.
in a pot that corresponds to how much you want to make, add whatever veggies and spices you want to use, with a little boiling water to water sauté until tender. mix the rolled oats, chia seeds and some more of the seasonings and add to the veggies with twice the boiling water in volume to the oats and chia and mix everything together and simmer around 5-8 minutes, until it's thick. add more boiling water to your preferred thickness.
I love your recipes! Thank you! Do you have a something where I can follow you? Thank you!
Thank you, this is excellent information.
I love that Dr. Yani has cooking classes. It's true that vegan cooking can be fast and simple. I am vegan and often cook quick ... just saute some veggies and tofu together.
And don't spare the herbs and spices! Delicious!
Agreed, the eye glasses are great!
Do I need to decrease soy sauce and tamari to bring down my BP?
Savory oats… pepper, braggs, nutritional yeast & yes… hot sauce. I eat this very frequently
What about isha potato
What about a protein drink
What kind of meat do I eat
Hi Chuck do you have a video on Foods to lower Glucose Naturally? Thanks
Thank you for the information about food we should eat to control blood pressure
Love Dr Yami ❤ Always excellent advice.
I'm vegan and my blood pressure has been low for years. But yesterday it was randomly high. 164 over 109. I have no idea how it got so high. The only difference in my diet is that for the last few days I ate a lot more potatos, mung bean and tofu with black salt than usual. And that day I did drink a large coffee in the morning. Other than the last few days I generally eat a ton of cooked veggies and legumes.
But I'm extremely nervous about this sudden increase. It's been under control and out of nowhere it just massively spiked. Idk if it was the short term mung bean tofu and eggs...but I'm hoping to get it down asap
You can always lower your BP by breathing deeply and slowly in and out. What I have found is I don’t breathe, I just inhale. I have to stop when I remember and just take deep breaths.
You could be dehydrated, low end magnesium and maybe experiencing some stress.
I am really caffeine sensitive and I had a double espresso one day and my BP recorded 220/112, yet when I had flu a couple of years back, I went off coffee and didn't have it for three weeks, my BP went down to 120/64. Sadly, I need coffee for my night shifts and yes, I do enjoy it. But that may be your problem - caffeine sensitivity.
@nyxs60 wow I've been drinking more coffee than normal for the past couple of years - perhaps that's why my blood pressure went up! It was always at a normal level until recently... going to experiment taking salt and caffeine out of my diet 😢 hopefully I can reintroduce occasional coffee later
@@nyxs60Chocolate has similar effects as caffeine! It is a stimulant. I personally LOVE DR. Bronners chocolate bars… uuuuuuf, yum, yum! Just thinking about it, makes my brain happy. LOL. My brother works night shifts and does not drink coffee. I noticed he started taking mushroom supplements - I will ask him about it later today!
I put about a tbsp of balsamic vinegar on my oatmeal, stir in, and also sprinkle cinnamon, add banana, strawberry, blueberries, couple crumbled walnuts or pecans, finished with a few ounces of soy or almond milk.
Good program. My blood pressure averages 145 over 82over, is that in the safe zone for a 74 year old granddad?
yes, but if you drink more water, it will go lower.
Don’t forget please: there are LOTS of plant based foods that have super high levels of oxalates that contribute to kidney stones… you have to check out stuff before you just start eating certain things… spinach, beet tops, etc… thanks❣️🤔
Thank you for reminding me. I suffer with kidney and gall stones.
I’m 70 years old…. And my blood pressure is always low….. 97/63… 88/62…. 90/62….. I eat whole plant foods for 5 years and vegetarian since 1982…. And I exercise everyday specifically walking…. I would like if is normal…. I only feel a light head when I put my head to the back…. Please if you have some information I appreciate… thank you for good videos
Pomegranate eat
You don’t need to be too low. Your prone to fall. Is about balance
I found out my HBP was causing my minor hearing loss. My ENT said to strictly monitor my salt intake. Some people are very sensitive to sodium. I also have to remove caffeine and sugars. I was doing a vegan diet, but needed to do more.
Don't be discouraged. Giving up processed foods made a big difference for me. I can no longer tolerate the salty foods that others assume are "normal." My tongue shrinks and hardens. It's disgusting. Give me an apple, give me celery, give me bananas or beans. Foods that are their own ingredients, not foods whose ingredients have been assembled from various regions and labs and massed produced for the sake of some distant figure's self-enrichment.
@@fanniterrette Yes. I agree. Just cutting out the salt brought my BP from Stage 2 to Elevated in 3 weeks. I need to lose some weight to get it to normal. It's the food, as Dr. McDougal says.
I have tinnitus that has not gone away after 4years of being vegan. Any tips?
Wow thanks for sharing
@@melindabaker6251 plant-based vegan, no salt, no sugar, no dairy or gluten worked for me in 3 weeks. From stage 2 to normal. My bp was very high on a vegan only diet.
how bad are noodles if you are trying to lower blood pressure
My B/P is always up 140/90 when I’m in doctor’ s office but when I take at home is normal 130/78. I am 74 years old
That's called white coat hypertension.. Ur fine
Raw onions, and garlic is very healthy, whether or not you like it. You will get used to it. You will acquire a taste for it. I got used to eating raw ginger. I don't like it, but MUST eat it anyway.
Can we use the hibiscus leaf to make tea
Thank you so much for your explanations. Pls. I am on half tablet of lisinoprilhctz for bp which needs low potassium intake but cholesterol which needs lots of potassium; what foods and fruits can I eat to balance the two. At the moment I am on low sodium diet. I have a feeling that Lisinoprilhctz is not good for me because it makes me have very low bp like 88/56 sometimes. Is there any bp medication that will allow me eat potassium etc without fair. I have lost too much weight because I don't know what to eat. Pls. help me.
Wow! I thought I was the only person who put hot sauce or black pepper on my oats 🤣! I love savory oats.
Amazing thanks a lot
Savory oats are a favorite in my house hold and hot sauce goes great with them!
Hello from NZ I have hypertension . I do not eat processed food. We live on fresh vegetables from the garden. I have a low carb diet & only eat 2 meals per day. Usually 2 poached eggs on 1 slice of wholemeal toast with natural butter & diner consists of vegetables with a small amount of lean meat or chicken . We have a garden with lettuce celery onions, spinach, herbs beans tomatoes etc I use pink Himalayan salt which I believe is higher in K I have peripheral vascular disease. . I am at a loss as to what else I can do.
Is there a genetic link? Does it run in your family.? All my siblings have hypertension, as did mum. I we are all on meds, despite good food choices. Don’t risk a stroke if trying to do it naturally isn’t getting you to a safe level. Talk to a medical professional you trust, not just some Dr (?) from another country posting you-tube videos.
Resistant hypertension is not always controlled by having a good diet and staying fit. Get your healthcare team to do some tests.
.my wife is in seriously severe headache now because of high blood pressure what can I do now to Be Nomal? From Abuja Nigeria
Thank very much, for the advice
Just started plant base diet now that I heard it work I will stick with it thanks
I would like to hear someone talk about the sugar connection
Excess sugar converts to fat which gradually builds up in the blood vessels to harden the vessels. Non- elastic blood vessels also cause raised blood pressure
I have been diagnosed with blood pressure since 22 years. I eat a plant base . My bp is still high and taking meds . I don’t eat meat dairy and cheese and lots of other food. I eat the green beans and all the good food you are talking about. Exercise and so on, but I have a sleep problem and maybe stress. I need lots of help . Can anyone please help me.
Stress can be the killer secret for you that you need to work on. Praying more and/or some meditation finding solutions to reduce your stress or who makes you stress. Sleep is another powerful punch in either way. Meaning sleep plays its part 100% so not getting atleast minimal 6.5 to 7hra can be major for your situation. Everyone issue with BP is different.
Me too Ms Karen that is my problem as well,I do all of the good things but if I could get my sleep habits under control I believe I would even be better
Resistant hypertension = consult health-care team and get tests done
Try cutting coffee out of your diet and go to sleep early. Go fir brisk walks every day for at least 30 mins
Good morning I was watching from Grenada I have jight blood presure and m on medicao I want to know what food today to bring down my blood pressure
Grapefruit if you are not on bp meds
Watch Patrick delves videos he’s amazing and a Grenadian too.
I still have high blood pressure, and I eat whole foods plant based , probably stress and probably need to cut out coffee and salt too
Exercise regularly. An hour or more of "brisk" walking if you can't run or do anything more vigorous.
How about exercise like walking and plenty of sunshine and water? Please don't be discouraged. And your gut microbiome?
@ hazel coate…….reduce carbs, healthy Keto helped me, plenty of veggies too, it’s due to inflammation, cereals and bread which are grains aren’t good and stick with healthy oils. We shouldn’t be afraid of a bit of fish and meat in moderation and don’t be scared of fat, our brains and every cell in our body needs it. Also sea salt is good for us. I feel so unwell without a bit of fish or meat, I don’t get all my B’s etc and amino acids otherwise. I feel home made non processed foods are the best. By the way plant milks have been proven to be less healthy than dairy….they just pour water over the oats for example and add vitamins which aren’t natural…..it’s really difficult as I’m dairy intolerant. To get calcium, leafy greens are good and B’s are in brewers yeast. I eat tinned fish for calcium as you can eat the small bones for the calcium. I also take d3 with k2.
@@angelataylor2049 keto dieters are morons. Carbs have nothing to do with high blood pressure. They also have no more impact on weight gain than any other food. You gain weight depending on how many calories you eat. It does not matter if the source of calories is sugar or fat. Anti carb zealots are twits. Almost everything they say is bogus.
@@donwinston I lost 50 lbs on the healthy Keto diet, I was insulin resistant and I came off blood pressure tablets,,,,,,,not everyone can tolerate a high carb diet, with me I think it was the processed stuff especially and the cereals, pasta and bread, fries etc. when I say Keto I don’t mean just meat….healthy Keto isn’t just meat…I know it’s important to have a varied diet and vegetarianism isn’t the answer! Do your research!
I went plant base five years ago and got my blood pressure from under control but I do heart burn these.
Please let me know for myself. My. Blood pressure Some time. Low. Some time he. Too high. Please. With. Best. Food. To Eat. To lower my Blood pressure. Thank you 🙏. I’m. Waiting. For the answer. Thank you ❤❤
Plant protein sources: beans, whole grains, nuts & seeds.
Can eating avocado every day lower BP or increase pb?
When one caller said 106/70 you said excellent, why the pulse rate was not asked. If on the Blood pressure measurement if pulse rate is 50 for elder is it ok or not. If not how we can increase pulse rate. Does blood pressure medicine decrease pulse rate too. Awaiting eagerly a reply
Yes, most blood pressure medicine does slow your heart down
Is pink salt better than ordinary salt
It was a miracle when the doctor told me that my Genital Herpes virus result is negative.I went to different places to get the cure but there was none. am still in shock thanks Dr Igudia.
Make your own fermented foods then you can control the sodium. Avoid pickled foods until under control.
What about taking fish oil capsules?
12:29 could you ask Dr Berg or any DO if someone with Fibromyalgia should stay away from eggs. HAPPY HOLIDAYS. Thank you for all you do for this community.
Dose eating eggs affect your blood pressure
I cannot eat oats, fish, penutbutter so give me some suggestions. I am from Jamaica ny.
Less oils, butter (even if vegan). Try more raw foods. Just my two cents lol

Hi doc, my BP is always 160/90 always I take it I do not want to take medication that lowers it, can daily excersise save my life without medication? Kindly help
Try cutting oil/salt/sugar/caffeine/animal products from your diet as well as exercise
Places like Mezeh, Panera, and CAVA are also places that are fast and healthy and you can order ahead.

Are Dulse flakes considered like salt and does that contribute to high blood pressure?
yes
I like to know of all those people who died, how many were on blood pressure medications, you need to specify.
Probably slot of them, my mom was on blood pressure meds to 40 years, destroyed her kidneys and caused dementia....
Hi from Namibia, have a query can hypertension be healed completely
Off my high blood pressure meds after staying on Moringa for 6 months.
Thank you
Could you please elaborate it? How do you intake it?
Thank Janice Kajan
How about sea salt or celtic salt
So is there Any cheese that we can eat that is low sodium
Chili (not hot sauce) pairs well with sweet (fruit, breakfast oatmeal) dishes. Try it, ground ginger, and/or cinnamon on these.
Was told pure chilli powder if you are having a heart problem ,,half tsp heaped
I am absolutely willing to try hot sauce on my oatmeal.
What is the normal blood pressure for a person age 88
Wow! I really need to buckle down on my BP I am 60 and my BP is elevated but my doctor said that it’s not high enough to be put on meds
Thanks for sharing
Watching from Trinidad
EXERCISE!!!! If BP stays high even on WFPB low sodium diet, just add some aerobic exercise. If I don't do this 3 times per week for at least a half hour, and really get my HR up for 20 minutes of that, my BP creeps right back up, even on WFPB. It's not 100% diet. Mostly, but you need to get that heart rate up regularly and keep it up for 20 min.
Does super food green blend works if u can get a hold of leafy greens?
I agree a plant basic diet and exercise to to start
