"How to Lower Blood Pressure
Naturally with Lifestyle Changes" Fasting has been practiced
for thousands of years, but only recently have we
started to put it to the test. I did a previous video series
about the studies on using fasting for weight loss back in the ‘70s. Was it safe? Was it effective? But what about fasting for treating
and preventing other diseases? One of the side effects noticed
in the early weight loss studies was a consistent fall in blood pressure,
so much so you typically have to stop taking blood pressure
medications while fasting or else your pressures fall too low. Once you start eating again,
your pressures go back up, but remarkably, not as high
as they were before.

But, of course, it depends on
what you start eating again. For example, a case report
of a woman who used fasting to drive her rheumatoid
arthritis into remission. Systolic blood pressure
started up around 170 despite multiple blood
pressure medications was put on a whole food plant-
based diet for eight weeks. That dropped her down
from 170 down to 130, off of all medications
before starting the fast, and then normalizing down
to 110 after the fast. But is that just because
of all the weight loss? She lost 22 pounds on the fast,
and 27 pounds on the plant-based diet. So yeah, it’s extraordinary to drop
your pressures from 170 to 110, but that was after
losing about 50 pounds. We’ve known for decades
that any kind of weight loss can lower blood pressure. Even minor weight loss can lower
blood pressures in obese persons, even if they remain
significantly overweight. But most of the drop in blood pressures
with severe caloric restriction happens within the first two days,
before significant loss of body fat; so, it may also be a reduction in
the fight-or-flight stress hormones, like adrenaline and noradrenaline
both before… and after exercise, after just two weeks of just a
few hundred calories a day.

So, that may be one reason
why a very-low-calorie diets have been found useful in
lowering blood pressures even in those for whom blood
pressure medications fail: the changes in those hormones. But, low calorie diets also
tend to be more plant-based; so, there’s fiber and potassium-
rich foods, less saturated fat. Even just adding fruits and vegetables
to the diets of hypertensives can lower their systolic blood pressure—
the top number—by 7 points. That’s the kind of blood pressure
improvement you might get losing 10 pounds, just by eating
more fruits and vegetables.

And, if you combine that with
a drop in meat consumption, not only doubling fruit and
vegetable intake but combining that with trying to slash
saturated fat and cholesterol, you can cut pressures by 11 points. What else can we do? Restricting alcohol intake in regular
daily drinkers can drop you 5 points. So, let’s keep track here:
alcohol restriction can drop your systolic
blood pressure 5 points, losing ten pounds can drop you 7,
as can just eating the recommended 8 to 10 servings of
fruits and vegetables a day. Regular aerobic exercise for
at least 3 months can drop you 9…. So, let’s add that on to the chart. Combine the fruits and
vegetables with meat reduction and you can drop it 11. Blood pressure medications
can have side effects, but on their own can
drop pressures by 15 points.

What about cutting down on salt? Note in the other diet study they
kept the sodium levels the same. Cut sodium enough and it
can edge out drugs at 16: the drugs 15, sodium restriction 16. Is that the best we can do with diet? Put people on a purely plant-based
diet, even one moderate in sodium, and you can drop
hypertensives by 18 points even after 9 out of 10 reduced
their blood pressure medications or stopped them entirely,
all within just 7 days. That’s pretty impressive. Now, what if you took that
same diet, but added fasting? 37 points! We’ll review that study
and others like it, next..
