Dear Kirsten and others,
This lovely Christian mum is a nature lover and
has never been ill, ever, until now. She homes schools all of her 6 children,
aged 5 -13 and they live in a beautiful isolated spot. She is not overweight, fit and doesn't smoke or drink
alcohol.
The doctor told her that once she started on
antihypertensives, that she would never get off them. Her father has been on
them for some years. She is concerned about the long term effects of
antihypertensive medication, but seems to have little concept of the effect of
long term hypertension.
Thanks to those who offered some information - I
will pass it on.
Mary Doyle
Bright.

To All,
Can anyone enlighten me about whether any
naturopathic treatments can help with hypertension?
My client, 35yrs, and a wonderful mother
of 6 kids sadly had a fetal death in utero at term, for no obvious
reason except for her hypertension, which has persisted.
She would love to have more babies but not
willing to have antihypertensive medication. and wondering about the
alternatives.
Any references would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks
Mary Doyle,
Bright
