I am grateful for having regulated blood pressure!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I NEVER had trouble with my blood pressure until I did.

Despite being active and at a healthy weight, I was diagnosed with hypertension and autoimmune disease in 2018. 😔

The doctors were convinced that my genetics, age, and the luck of the draw, left me no other options, so I was put on medication.💊

I reluctantly took it, but I did because I know the impact of hypertension. It can destroy your kidneys and is a gateway to many other complications. 🚑

I also know the side effects of medication and that when we can do something to avoid medication or reduce medications, we should pursue it.💯

After a couple of years, the doses needed to be increased and there was talk of trying other meds because the low doses I was on no longer worked. 😭

I decided to responsibly try some other alternatives.

I am no longer on any medications and have not been since Dec 2021!!!

Hallelujah!!

What did I do?

🔸️Continued to believe God has the final say

🔸️Converted to a vegan diet

🔸️Changed my supplement regimen

🔸️ Upped my daily meditation practice

🔸️ Continued yoga and cardio

🔸️Check and record my blood pressure regularly

To be honest, I’m still amazed every day when I take my blood pressure. I am especially relieved when I go to the doctor and it is a normal range. I just thank God for his grace. I thank Him for giving me the discipline, the knowledge, the tools, and the desire to pursue Him and not give up. 💃🏿🎊✝️🦋🌈🙏🏾
