I heard a guy in the next booth say sadly to his friend “I wish I had just enjoyed myself instead of being self-disciplined. I missed all the fun of eating what I wanted because they said if you avoid these foods you will not have to take blood pressure medication when you get to be in your late 40s. Well, I sacrificed but I just heard from the doctor he’s putting me on medication for it now anyway. I gave up high salt and all that for those years when I wish I had just been happy and carefree back then.

I have jogged and lifted weights most of my life. Ate Atkins diet pretty consistently for years. Came within minutes of dying of a heart attack at 59 (my father died of a heart attack at 58) and always borderline diabetes. Genetics is everything.
No thanks from my point of view. Lisinopril is derived from the venom of a pit viper - how it thins the blood.
Synthetic is not any better when you mimic poison. Lost my Uncle John (Korean war vet) when the VA 1st prescribed Lisinopril and then added more scripts from additional ‘check ups’. Did you also know they never cross test effects of multiple drugs? Who are the snake oil salesmen?
Last Rockefeller (George Soros of his day) is why doctors and AMA switched from plant-based medicines to petrol-based in the 1930’s. RFK Jr. knows what he is talking about, there has been no additional research / advancements for HBP since the ‘science’ of the 1930’s as I understand it.
