A buddy of mine I deer hunt with asked what my options were on prescription blood pressure meds and which were better and if there were any other options. I know some of you guys take them and have been through several with different results and side effects so I figured I'd as your personal preference on the.
he is 48 years old , retired from the only job he ever had. May of 2020 he was 328lb and didn't work out AT ALL had a very seditary job and his blood pressure was 150/95 and high cholesterol (268-LDL , 32-HDL , 279 Triglyceride) , so he started eating better and walking 30 min a day.
currently his is at 210lbs eating a 33%/33%/33% macro split diet at 2300 calories and has basically plateaued but he is happy here. He walks 20 min after breakfast , 20 after lunch and 20 in the evening after dinner , he is on 15mg/ED test cyp , 2iu/EDHGH , 10mg/ED Cialis. Now his cholesterol is down to 136-LDL , 39-HDL , 86-Triglycerides but his blood pressure is still high at 142/88 and 91bpm , his cardiologist is concerned that it hasn't come down more and wants to put him on low fat very low sodium diet and BP meds. His diet while reasonably higher in fats is very clean , he has a farm so 95% of his meat (chicken/eggs/beef) is true grass fed free range and added fats are from avocado and grass fed butter and olive oil , carbs are mostly fruit and veggies and a little oats and rice.
he can't do and HIIT cardio due to two bad knees from a car accident (walking the 30 min is tuff)
so if he does need a blood pressure med what would you guys suggest , or what sups can he try before?? I reall want to help the guy because he has honestly busted his ass to lose the weight and wants to keep improving his life , he's excited to have a double knee replacement schedule when he turns 50 so he can be more active.
