Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

10 ways to control high blood pressure without medication

Even the Mayo Clinic doesn't seem to have the ability to create a diet that could reduce your high blood pressure. Who the hell out there can do that? All it would take is some additional research proving amounts needed.

Go to the link to see the complete listing from Mayo.  My links were added in here because Mayo was totally incomplete.
Here are 10 lifestyle changes you can make to lower your blood pressure and keep it down.

1. Lose extra pounds and watch your waistline

2. Exercise regularly

3. Eat a healthy diet.

Nothing here is clinically proven, don't do it. These are my findings of research  in the literature.

Antihypertensive Effect of Fermented Milk Products Under the Microscope

Melatonin reduces blood pressure and tunes up disrupted circadian rhythms in the elderly

Study: Aged Cheese Lowers Blood Pressure

Must-Have Foods That Can Help Lower Blood Pressure Naturally

Dietary nitrate lowers blood pressure

8 Produce Picks For Better Blood Pressure

UEA research shows high protein foods boost cardiovascular health

The Acute Electrocortical and Blood Pressure Effects of Chocolate

Daily Consumption of Blueberries May Lower Blood Pressure

Reduce High Blood Pressure with Beet Juice

New research shows almonds reduce the risk of heart disease

Regular pomegranate juice administered to hypertensive patients causeda significant drop in blood pressure [26], a reduction in carotid plaque development [27] 


4. Reduce sodium in your diet

Low-Salt Diet Ineffective, Study Finds. Disagreement Abounds.

 

5. Limit the amount of alcohol you drink

1.  Red Wine: Heart-Healthy? 

2. Acute effects of beer on endothelial function and hemodynamics: A single-blind, crossover study in healthy volunteers 

3. Dark beer is good for you, in moderation

 

6. Quit smoking


7. Cut back on caffeine

This one has this statement in it:

They performed the most rigorous investigation to date, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study that found that caffeine significantly improved endothelial function.  I'm assuming that improved function would actually reduce blood pressure, but don't listen to me.

Effect of coffee on endothelial function in healthy subjects: the role of caffeine

 

But did they consider those studies that have identified a single nugget of our DNA that seems to determine whether we process caffeine quickly or slowly? That, in turn, appears to have a large effect on whether coffee is good for your health.  

 8. Reduce your stress

9. Monitor your blood pressure at home and see your doctor regularly

10. Get support

Sometimes I wonder if there is anyone in the world that understands what needs to be done to prevent and solve strokes. Mayo Clinic obviously does not.
