Was it for hypothyroidism? I'm a nurse. Anti pharma ever since my pre req chem class that was taught by professor who also sat on consulting board for Bayer. He said Apple pectin was the active ingredient in top cholesterol med.

Hubby had to go on thyroid and antihypertensive neither I'm thrilled about however his BP always ran high his entire life like 150s over 90s for years. I equated it to revving an engine, eventually it could crap out.

Unsalted almonds which is supposed to naturally lower bp didn't work. 7 flowers seemed to have years ago but he feels at his age its okay with 2 meds.

I'm on none and want to keep it that way. Have more anxiety and manage with l theanine. My faith in God is paramount but the uncertainty and the pressure of being in health care and anti vax are mounting.

Interesting further down you say night shades affect you. I was trialing that to see I it was causing weird symptoms for me. I just had a bunch of foods including avocado toast, kombuchu and other foods apparently high in histamines and I've felt like trash all day. There's a storm brewing here and that triggers migraines for me too. Would love to get hubby off his meds. He'd love the burger salad idea. He seems to do well with meat, i seem to do better with occasional meat.
