Examples of a blood pressure lowering diet

Examples of my new diet

3 AUGUST, 2016 ~ LEAVE A COMMENT ~ EDIT

Today I have been on my new diet for two weeks. The first week I lost 4 kilos and the second week another kilo. I think the first weeks big loss in weight must be due to that I halved my dose of Metoprolol.

So, some examples of my diet:

• For breakfast I eat low fat plain yogurt with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, flax seeds and sometimes berries. One small cuo of coffee. And sometimes one egg.
• Lunch: Lots of vegetables and protein in form of fish or egg (occasionally meat).
• Dinner: Same as lunch, but different kinds of vegetables and protein.

I eat fruits also. I have minimized salt and sugar as much as I can, and I have also minimized carbohydrates. I cook everything with no salt, I use other spices and herbs instead.

I will continue with 25 mg Metoprolol for at least another week, and after that I will half that into 12.5 mg. I felt a big difference already when changing from 50 mg to 25 mg.

To be continued…
