I occasionally have to drink a glass of salt water to bring my blood pressure UP.
If I stop the keto diet, within a few weeks my blood pressure jumps back up into the high range.
Keto may not be for everyone, but it is worth considering if you have a salt problem, high blood pressure, obesity, or high cholesterol.
Carbs are sugar and sugar is a killer.
As I’ve found out too recently.
Sugar can raise BP just as much as, if not more than, salt.
Indeed, lower salt to tiny amounts, and can still have high BP. Reduce sugar, aka Keto/Atkins, and BP goes to 120/80 like levels.
