Heart disease is the number one killer in the West and is closely linked to high blood pressure, or hypertension. Many things can trigger high blood pressure, including the foods that we eat. In this guide, media doctor Sarah Brewer provides a nutritional plan to help sufferers control or avoid this dangerous condition by changing their eating habits. She also gives readers medically accurate information on high blood pressure, including: what causes high blood pressure; how you can control symptoms; and what orthodox and complementary treatments are available. The book also includes 60 easy-to-follow recipes from Michelle Berriedale-Johnson, which should allow sufferers to control their blood pressure and still enjoy their food.
