Motivating Format
18 Mar 2002
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book has a motivating format for controlling high blood pressure and maintaining weight. The DASH diet information is wonderful---the food is delicious and healthful. I can honestly see myself eating this way the rest of my life. The information on stress relief and exercise is also very well-written.

Excellent Information on High Blood Pressure
15 Oct 2010
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is an excellent book on natural ways to deal with high blood pressure. I picked up this book and 5 other books at my local library after I went to the dentist and found that I was running high. 2 out of the 7 books really pushed for seeking natural means to mild hypertention while the others advocated the pharmacudical companies. I am a african american nurse and I was so fascinated with the information that fruits and vegetables high in potassium decrease the sodium, thus decreasing high blood pressure in salt sensitive subjects (most blacks). This in turn decreases glaucoma, kidney disease, stroke. A lot of studies showed proof that the medical society was and is aware of this. I remember a few years ago when I was being tested for glaucoma that I asked the opthamologist if hypertension was linked and he said he didn't know. Period, end of discussion. He wanted to finish his expensive field test and prescribe expensive eye drops and make numerous appointments. Likewise the primary doctor only wanted to immediately prescibe medications that would in turn create other health conditions that would need more prescription for life. I didn't want to travel that way and retire with medication bills over my head. I learnt that just ommitting sodium is not enough and I need to buy low-sodium products in the grocery aisle. I even printed 4 pages and made a poster for my school staff. I will order 10 books and give to relatives. Great 30-Day Hypertensive Diet Plan. I want to keep this book on my nightstand! Excellent and easy to read and to the point.

not enough information
5 Mar 2003
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I found this book to be a summary of all the collective knowledge I have previously obtained on the subject of high blood pressure. I purchased the book looking forward to following their suggested eating plan, however, the receipes do not contain any information with respect to number of servings, calories, sodium content, fat content, etc. You never quite know if that Spinach Pie you just wolfed down was meant to be shared amongst 2 or 6 people. Because of this, I had to give up as I just don't have the time to calculate appropriate servings size, etc.
