When it comes to lowering your blood pressure naturally, one of the key areas you must be concerned with is your brain.

Brain?… Yes!

You see, all your cravings start with receptors in the brain and send signals that cause your cravings for certain foods to get another "dopamine hit" to make you feel happy and satisfied.

And YES, it is an addiction, yet no one talks about this.

That's why you want to become aware of what receptors these are and how to downregulate them to homeostasis.

And most foods today are scientifically studied to make sure your food is giving you that next "dopamine hit" to have you coming back for more highly processed, man made food-like items!

Highly processed, packaged foods and ingredients are filled with ingredients you can't even pronounce that are making us sick as a society... with chronic conditions like hypertension, high LDL cholesterol (and low HDL cholesterol), obesity, dementia, cancer, and immune disorders (which all start in the gut).

To prevent and even reverse conditions like these all starts with finding the root cause and awareness of your behavior around food...and that root cause is the sensitivity of the sugar, salt, and fat receptors in the brain.

When I lowered my blood pressure after having high blood pressure for 15 years (stage 2 hypertension) with readings averaging between 158-180/98-105. I was taking two blood pressure medications at the time. When I decided to take matters into my own hands I delved into the research on how to lower blood pressure naturally. After that, I was able to get off both medications in 2 months, and actually lowered my blood pressure to normal levels in 10 days.

I took on all the information from not just a couple studies but from over one hundred studies, and applied what I learned to my daily life.

I also didn’t make excuses as to why I didn’t want to eat the foods that were proven to heal the inner lining of the blood vessel walls called the endothelium. The endothelium is the lifeline to our cardiovascular health. It is made up of endothelial cells that produce nitric oxide for smooth blood flow that allows you to maintain a healthy blood pressure.

Once these endothelial cells are damaged, blood gets sticky, scar tissue builds up around the damaged cells, and blood vessels start to stiffen. This is due to the lack of sufficient nitric oxide that causes blood pressure to rise.

The Compound Effect

A compound effect happens when you take multiple strategies to lower blood pressure, creating desired results. Eating in a way to heal the endothelium causes receptors in the brain to become more sensitized to natural foods.You get the same dopamine hit when you eat to heal as you would when you eat a big piece of cake or chips. It just takes a reset for this to happen.

Why a Reset?

Doing a Reset is the best way to get these receptors' sensitivity back to normal which also allows you to absolutely LOVE real whole food meals.

This is exactly what I work with you on in the 15-Day Blood Pressure Reset. In Phase 1, I teach you how to desensitize these receptors in the brain so that when you eat healing real foods you can actually TASTE the already natural flavors in the food along with the natural sodium, sugar, and healthy fats without the added calories from highly processed foods, chemicals, and preservatives in packaged foods.

In Phase 1, you also trigger your body’s natural mechanism of clean and repair. This 2016 Nobel Prize in Science winning discovery is what Phase 1 is based on where you heal and repair damaged and old cells, plus get rid of toxins, cellular waste, and excess fluids in the body. This all aids in naturally lowering your blood pressure

By Phase 2 of the Reset, your sugar, salt, and fat receptors are actually "reset". Now you begin to love and look forward to eating in a way that heals your heart, gut, and brain.

By the end of the 15-Day Blood Pressure Reset, you will start to see (in your blood pressure and excess weight goals) and feel (less inflammation, less stiff joints, mental clarity...) all the health benefits.

One of the greatest challenges we face as someone suffering from high blood pressure or is prone to high blood pressure is maintaining a heart healthy diet and lifestyle.

Finding ourselves eating healthy during the week and then falling off the wagon over the weekend... and then going back to old habits is a vicious cycle that's hard to break.

However, with the 15-Day Blood Pressure Reset, you're not only learning to eat in a heart healthy way, but you're also setting in place new, long lasting habits that will keep you healthy and vibrant.

It's a win - win!
