Editorial Review:

"The book is exceptional in its clarity and depth. I would recommend it to anyone with a tendency to hypertension."
--Charles Keenan Jr., M.D., Associate Professor of Family Practice, UCLA

"Hypertension is an important member of the quartet of risk factors for cardiovascular disease--the other three are elevated cholesterol levels, diabetes, and cigarette smoking. Robert Kowalski endeavors to bring all these risk factors under control without resorting to medications. This book presents simple answers to the questions that arise when people take charge of their own health in partnership with their physician."
--Calvin Ezrin, M.D., author of Your Fat Can Make You Thin

"The Blood Pressure Cure offers a comprehensive, nutritionally sound, and easily accessible guide to lowering one's blood pressure safely and effectively."
--Kristen Caron, M.A., M.F.T., author of The Everyday Meal Planner for Type 2 Diabetes

This well-written, concise book is a must-read for every person suffering from or treating high blood pressure."
--Paul Dougherty, M.D., Professor of Medicine, UCLA

Heart health:

Even being a person that exercises 6 days a week, having low fat in my body and eating healthy food I had my blood pressure around 130/70 easily going to 140 if I ate something with too much sodium, like Japanese food.

Then I read this book and start taking the suplements the author mentioned, the four all of them. Now, after... more info

Sound Non-Prescription Steps for Battling Hypertension:

The book is intriguing, in that it is written by a medical journalist, not a physician. You even wonder how he ever found a publisher to publish the book.
