My Journey to Healthy Living
I started taking natural herbs and vitamins to get my high blood pressure under control. I am at stroke range. I didn’t want to have to depend on prescription pills. I don’t take them all at one time. I buy what is on the shelf at the time. They are not expensive, $3-$7. Right now I have 5 of the vitamins, but when I go to the store, I add. I always have at least 5 at a time. I can say that my blood pressure, knees, skin, and weight have improved. I am down 72 pounds and 4 pants sizes.
