Oh please be wrong, i eat at least one a day, its my favorite snack.

Not to worry. There is only about 1mEq of potassium per each inch of banana and the normal daily requirement for an adult is 40-50mEq. That is a lot of bananas unless you eat one 2 feet long.
Bananas are also good if you are on a diuretic for high blood pressure or a combination drug that contains one. Potassium is lost while taking this type of medication, so replenishment is often needed.

we have all in thailand forgot to mention the bigest cause,thai builders and being sat in the front seat of thai driving a car,try to aviode,o fnuk i always fly thai.

If you are taking potassium substitutes for salt then you do need at adjust the weights and volumes a bit

for a 40% sodium, 60% potassium mix

by weight, you need to use about 20% more because kcl is heavier than salt
by volume you need to use about 40% more because kcl is less dense and heavier than salt

if you are using potassium bicarbonate for baking:

by weight and volume you need to use about 20% more

BTW potassium is just a little radioactive (:

Nice info , thank you

Hey Dick, I see a lot of confusion here,your problem is SO, SO simple to overcome.

1- Forget about treating symptoms as drug companies do!! (unless you have a life threatening situation now),,, You must treat the CAUSE.

2- Educate yourself, I'm sure you are trying. Google ''ross horne 5th edition'' Read the book 'the health revolution' on line -free. Read it at least twice..!!!

3- Immediately eliminate ALL -YES ALL, fats and oils from your diet, Right down to the last speck. Be fanatical about it . You won't be deficient Because All foods contain some oil/fat,, even the humble lettuce.

4- Eliminate ALL salt, be tough, ALL salt.. (most veges have sodium so you will not be deficient).

5- Drink water not alcohol

6- Excercise, slowly,but lots of it, Hours of walking each day, walking till you sweat if you can without straining your heart- see book.

Good luck, Z one

Hi Dick

Yes the Information is partly quite good. But the advice to eliminate ALL fats from your diet is major bullshit. An unbalanced diet cannot be the way to health.

Also it is not at all related to your situation. Severe sleep apnoe is a very dangerous condition and needs treatment.

It may be partly caused by severe overweight and in that case the advie by Zone could help you reduce that weight. But don't neglect the doctors advice on handling the apnoe.

Hi,

I am also searching for an alternative meds for hypertension for my grandmother and I saw an ad about a transdermal device. Have you heard about Doxyva? They say it is effective.

Hi,

It seems though however if we will check how it works and its benefits it is impressive. what I love about it is the way how you will be treated. most of us right now are takings meds that can affect our kidneys and that is the reason why I would love to know more about this device. I hope we can talk to someone who have tried it.

Can you stick it up your Nong Noy? By the way, I see they 'closed' the thread you started over there on the other forum.

Indeed, this is a valuable tool in reducing blood pressure but it only works if you are a naive, credulous fuckwit with a borderline IQ verging on imbecility or an American.
