A member asked:
I got high blood pressure and i went to my doctor he say it might be high cause of salt so how do i bring it down?

Follow your Doctor: I would take the medication as prescribed by your physician. If you are overweight and/or are not exercising then both of those life style choices have to be changed for the better. Eat less sugar and less salt.
