I’m 30 years old, with high blood pressure detected one year ago, I had to start meds right away because it was so high; I’m also obese (starting weight 132kg), have PCOS, insulin resistance, high triglycerides and several allergies; but the HBP was my wake up call, I know the long term effects it can bring to the body, I have family history of several chronic diseases and don’t want to live depending on pills.
Since the diagnosis I tried to lose weight with several diets, but I was not successful. I read about Keto one day in an articule about PCOS, did research on the topic and decided to start 28 days ago.
On week 1 I had to stop taking my diuretic because going to the bathroom every hour was no fun, my BP didn’t increase, on week 3 I started having dizzy spells and really low BP readings when resting, on week 4 I told my doctor about this and he told me to stop taking my BP pill and monitor my BP three times a day during the weekend, if I had high readings I had to go back on losartan, but with a lower dose.
Today is my third day without BP medication and normal readings, I’m so so so happy I could cry! I can’t believe it! I’m amazed this happened so quickly, controlling my high BP without medication is the main reason I started this WOE, I hoped this would happen in a few months not a few days/weeks of doing this, I really can’t believe it!
Just one month!
