The High Blood Pressure Solution by Richard D.

Updated with recent Finnish studies showing a 60% decline in deaths from strokes and heart attacks after replacing sodium chloride nationwide, this book outlines a comprehensive, drug-free programme to balance body chemistry at the cellular level. Dr. Moore emphasises nutrition, weight loss, and exercise, and includes guidance on safely reducing blood pressure medications under medical supervision.

The High Blood Pressure Solution proves that the majority of cases of stroke, heart attack, and hypertension could easily be prevented by maintaining the proper ratio of potassium to sodium in the diet.

Updated with scientific evidence from a recent Finnish study, the book shows a 60 percent decline in deaths attributed to strokes and heart attacks.

This book provides a comprehensive program for balancing body chemistry at the cellular level. High blood pressure is entirely preventable, without reliance on synthetic drugs. Dr. Moore's approach is simple: by maintaining the proper ratio of potassium to sodium in the diet, blood pressure can be regulated at the cellular level, preventing the development of hypertension and the high incidence of strokes and heart attacks associated with it.

Dr. Moore updates this edition with a new preface reporting on the latest scientific research in support of his program. The most striking results come from Finland, where for several decades sodium chloride has been replaced nationwide with a commercial sodium/potassium mixture, resulting in a 60 percent decline nationwide in deaths attributed to strokes and heart attacks.

Extrapolated to America, the Finnish statistics would mean 360,000 strokes prevented and 96,000 lives saved every year.

Dr. Moore makes it clear that high blood pressure is only one symptom of an entire systemic imbalance. He outlines a safe, effective program that focuses on nutrition, weight loss, and exercise to bring the entire body chemistry into balance.

For those currently taking blood pressure medications, he includes a chapter on working with your physician to ensure that any reduction in hypertension drugs can be effected gradually and safely.
