Calcium Depleted Diets Known To Be A Major Cause Of Hypertension
From the Book entitled “Lets Play Doctor” by Dr. Joel Wallach:
Hypertension (high blood pressure):represents an elevation of the blood pressure above 140/90 mm Hg (the upper limits of normal); either the systolic or diastolic numbers alone or both may be elevated.
Whenever a person is diagnosed with high blood pressure, get a hair analysis to check for excessive heavy metals (i.e. lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury). Don’t forget the baseline nutritional supplements. Calcium deficient diets are known to be a major cause of hypertension. Symptoms of hypertension include dizziness, red face, nose bleeds, fatigue, nervousness, memory loss, edema of the optic nerve disc, strokes, etc. While not a symptom, obesity is a serious predisposing factor of hypertension. Treatment of hypertension includes calcium (particularly useful is the plant derived colloidal minerals which are 98% absorb able), high fiber diets, rotation/avoidance diets, leaning towards a vegetarian diets, low fat diets, avoid sugar and refined flour. Avoid caffeinated coffee or tea, chelation with EDTA, infusions with hydrogen peroxide, flax seed oil at 5gm t.i.d., garlic, reduce red meat intake, consume 4-6 cups of vegetables a day, lecithin at 2,500 mg t.i.d., herbs including European hawthorn(Cra-taegus oxyacantha), rauwolfia (Rauwolfia serpentina), olive (Olea europea). Weight loss can drop elevated blood pressure dramatically.
This is what Dr. Joel Wallach had to say about hypertension in one of his essays…
“Then there is hypertension. This is one of my favorites, so I’ll put a star over here. Hypertension is high blood pressure. What’s the first nutritional thing your doctor will tell you to give up when you get high blood pressure? Salt. Everybody knows that one, it has been ingrained in our heads. Well, they must think we are dumber than cows, because what is the first thing you put out for your cows, and it’s about that big? A salt block. No farmer is going to be economically viable if you don’t put a salt block out for your livestock. They’re going to die. They’re going to get their veterinary bill and they are going to go crazy. Now we’re supposed to believe that we don’t need salt, that we can get everything we need out of your lettuce and your whole wheat bread, and stuff like that. Well don’t believe that one either. If you believe that, I’ve got some more ocean front property in Montana. Remember, those long-lived people put a big chunk of rock salt the size of a big black Concorde grape in every cup of tea, and they drink about 40 cups of tea a day cause they live at high altitudes where it is very dry, and they have to keep hydrated. And they put butter in their tea. They put two pats of butter and chunks of rock salt. They don’t put the pink stuff or the blue stuff, or skim milk, or Creamora, or whatever it is. Guess what? The doctors who lived to be 58 tell you, “No salt, no butter”. The people who live to be 120, they put in butter and salt. You have got to make some choices.
They took 30 million dollars of your tax money, and two years ago, after a 20 year study, they came out and said that they took 5,000 people with high blood pressure. They took them off their medication, and put them on a reduced salt diet, a restricted salt diet, and they all died. No big surprise. But somebody got a PH.D. degree and everybody was happy, right? But when they looked at this result, they said, “Oh, only 99.7% of the people didn’t get any results from that before they died. 0.3% did get some results, dropped their blood pressure 1 point before they died, by restricting their salt.” So the referees said, “Oh, doesn’t matter. You might as well let high blood pressure patients eat salted peanuts, and dill pickles, and salt to their food to taste, cause it doesn’t matter. In fact, worrying about the salt is more stress than taking the salt.
Then they had a controlled group with 5,000 people with high blood pressure and they doubled their RDA of calcium and they stopped their experiment in 6 weeks. Cause 85% of them were cured of their high blood pressure, just by doubling their calcium intake.
Now they didn’t, cold turkey, stop their high blood pressure medication, what they did was, they went to the doctor and he said, “You don’t need this medication anymore. What are you doing?” This disease is preventable and reversable.
