    The following are thoughts about high blood pressure from a Well Experienced Pharma

    Fasting is a quick way to fix Hypertension.

    Every time you eat Carbs, your body produces Insulin to get your Glucose levels down.

    Insulin is a key factor in Salt retention.

    Low Glucose = Low Insulin

    Low Insulin = Low Salt Retention

    Low Salt Retention = Low Blood Pressure

    Fasting has worked alongside other dietary strategies as well, such as the Mediterranean:

    A study carried out in Germany with 71 volunteers, who had Metabolic Syndrome and
    High Systolic Blood Pressure.

    This study showed that dieting can have very positive results, but this change is
    preceded by Fasting, the effects are even greater.

    Volunteers were divided into two random groups.

    Both groups followed a dietetic approach to Hypertension in a Mediterranean style.

    One of the groups did not consume any solid Food for five days before starting the Diet.

    The researchers analyzed the stool samples to understand the effects of Fasting on the
    Gut Microbiome.

    They then noticed that the innate Immune System was stable during Fasting, while the
    adaptive Immune System was turned off.

    In the course of the process, the number of Pro-Inflammatory T Cells dropped, while the
    regulatory ones increased.

    Gut Bacteria worked alongside the Immune System.

    The Gut Bacteria ecosystem changed completely during Fasting.

    It's as if health-promoting Bacteria multiply to Lower Blood Pressure as well.

    The most interesting thing is that this change was maintained in the long term, even
    after starting the new Diet.

    So, we conclude that Fasting can help in this process.

    Hypertension can be easily fixed:

    - Fast

    - Eat Real Food

    - Eat Less Carbs
