Therapies for High Blood Pressure

I remember the first time I read Dr. David G. Williams article on using EGGPLANT (!) to treat the symptoms of high blood pressure. It sounded so humorous that I remembered it well. Dr. Williams confidence level in its efficacy also affected me. Having a freind who suffered from high blood pressure, and remembering this remedy, I informed him of it, and he tried it, experiencing all the healing effects claimed, and that after 12 years of being chained to pharmeceutical drugs that wrecked his health in some VERY significant ways. He was not a little elated. I preface this relation of the remedy so as to gain the attention of those in like circumstances, hoping that if it helped my friend, it may well help them also.
Dr. Williams' remedy was this: Take an eggplant .....UNPEELED...... and dice it into half inch chunks. Place the chunks in a one gallon jar, and fill the jar with SPRING water. (Emphasis was placed on using only Spring water, not tap water, etc.) Let this sit in the refrigerator for about 4 days until the Eggplant chunks swell up, then remove them. Take 1 tablespoon of this mixture with meals. GREAT emphasis was placed upon the NECESSITY of taking your blood pressure at least once a day while on this protocol, as it can be so effective as to drive the blood pressure too LOW. I must insert my observation that this remedy would quickly spoil, and so I add my own personal advice to freeze this, and then thaw out as much as you would use in 3 days, max..

Other things people might consider would be as follows.

Supplements:
1. Grapefruit Pectin. I have read some reliable reports that this product is effective in removing arterial plaquing, thus relieving most heart disease complications. We don't presently carry this product, but may soon. As I may forget to update this page when we get it in, you may wish to look on the Supplements page to see if we have it yet.
2. I have heard reliable reports that Cal-Mag will also reduce high blood. Some one in the office here successfully tried this with their brother.
3. Niacin.... People take Niacin for Cholesterol problems, as it appears to be very effective. It is intentionally taken in large enough amounts to cause a flushing of the skin, (because it opens the peripheral capillaries). I know a man who was on a NO fat diet, who STILL had high cholesterol, but trying the Niacin lowered his cholesterol 90 points in 2-3 weeks time.
Herbs:
1. Hawthorn Berries
2. Mistletoe Herb
3. Linden Flower
