Controlling High Blood Pressure the Natural Way by David Carroll, Wahida S. Karmally Amazon Price: $6.99
Customer Review: 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.
Genocide: How Your Doctor's Dietary Ignorance Will Kill You!!!! by James Carlson Amazon Price: $16.72
Customer Review: This is an excellent book written by a medical doctor who uses low carbohydrate diets in his practice to lower blood pressure, enable patients to lose weight, control blood sugar in diabetics, raise HDL cholesterol, and help with the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome and coronary artery disease. He explains through biochemistry how lowering your carb intake reduces the levels of insulin in your blood stream and it is the high levels of insulin that cause negative biochemical reactions at the cellular level.He also explains why the maistream medical establishment rejects low carb diets and tows the party line of low fat and low cholesterol diets even though there are no studies that conclusively prove this diet does anything positive for your weight loss or health. Doctors prescribe drugs they are not dieticians.
This book is written in a friendly conversation format and is an easy read. The author's positive experiences with low carbs in his practice are nothing new. The same principles were written about years ago by other doctors in "Protein Power", "The Atkins diet revolution", "The Carbohydate Addicts Diet" and "The Zone" this last one was written by an endrocrinologist.
I myself lost 60 pounds in 3 months following a moderate low carb diet of about 100 carbs a day balancing the carbs with protein. The book is about explaining why low carb diets work with little to no dietary advice provided, I sugggest reading any of the above books to learn how to implement the doctors advice into a real diet. I also highly suggest that you get 20 or more grams of fiber a day and drink plenty of water if you do try out a very low carb diet. But do not go to extremes, a low carb diet is really just balancing out you carb/protein intake which should be about equal, the standard American diet currently is about 4 times as many carbs or more than protein. Buy this book it could literally save your life, the current American diet is very dangerous and your doctors advice could literally kill you.
The High Blood Pressure Solution: A Scientifically Proven Program for Prevent... by Richard D. Moore, Ph.D., Richard, D. Moore M.D. Amazon Price: $11.53
Customer Review: I am a kidney donor who became increasingly concerned about my remaining kidney when my blood pressure became elevated and my physician put me on medication. After I read this book, I decided to simply increase my potassium and reduce my sodium to comply with the author's low sodum/high potassium ratio. In real terms, this meant adding orange juice, bananas, potatoes, fruits, fresh vegetables and eliminating canned and processed foods and table salt. I monitored my blood pressure and the change was dramatic within days. My blood pressure is averaging 104/72. My goal is to come off of medication altogether. I highly recommend this book. It has made the difference for me.

The High Blood Pressure Solution: Natural Prevention and Cure With the K Factor Amazon Price: Customer Review: I had a b/p of 130/90 -145/94 I am 55. I was suppose to go on lisinopril but every time I started to get the prescrip. I couldn't do it--it just felt wrong.So, I started researching high b/p and signed up for google alerts(on H/P) and one thing lead to another and to this book. I decided to get the book and follow it. I was never a salt-lover, just the opposite but when I started reading the labels of how much salt is in everything you buy--I was shocked.I would have been considered a "health nut"so, realizing that even by those standards, too much "salt" exsist even in Health Foods! I raised my potassium foods per day and added 300mg of Magnesium/potassium supplement by Country life. The drop in my b/p was amazing. It dropped to 115/72 to 117/75. BUT if I stray-- it goes right back up to the 130/90+ b/p. I am genetically thin-I only weight 100lbs. so being told I have high blood pressure was a shock. AND no one addressess H/P in thin people. Dr. Moore talks about "balance" and he is right-- for many people it does take maintaining a balance in your diet. If I eat out at restaurants all weekend--the b/p goes back up. That has been a real eye-opener to how sensitive someone's body can be to what you eat. I wish he had a website. There is so much about high B/P in the news lately and since he wrote this book in 1993 it would be good to have his current prof. opinion. He wrote this book before 120/80 was considered High! So, Dr. Moore if you ever read your reviews--please set up a website!
