I was busy over the weekend editing clips from a recent nutrition course I taught. I’ve uploaded 8 new nutrition/diet videos. The are all less than 2 minutes so I get to the point quick. Here they are:
How To Calculate Calorie Needs Pt 1
Fat Loss Diets We Like – Low Glycemic Load Diets




Mike,
I am a 41 yo M, that is 5’9″ tall. weight currently at 220.
My Main issue is VERY high blood pressure.
I am in a quandary the 5 different blood pressure meds I am on lower my blood pressure to 150/100. But also make me very tired and weak. Turning a screwdriver makes my arms burn, walking up a flight of stairs feels like I have walked 5 miles. etc.
That said, I want to work to get off the drugs, they make me dizzy and besides the other side effects.
So the questions I have. How do you rate the DASH diet from a weight lost perspective. It seems to be highly loaded in grains which I would think would be a Insulin issue.
I have been reading A Lot about inflammatory type foods causing heart disease. Have you seen or heard anything in that regards??
One of these days I am going to be able to do the Warp Speed Fat Loss exercises. right now when I attempt to do them my heart rate goes through the roof. (almost 220 bpm)
sorry for jumping all over the place just the way my brain works.
Hey DouglasH
You need to go see your doctor pronto to get your meds adjusted – 5 diff meds? no wonder you are exhausted, they are probably all fighting with each other. I have gone from one bp med to another – some are depressing, some exhausting.. look up side effects of each one you are taking – write them down and take them to your doctor – Complain!!! i did, it makes such a huge difference to then be able to start exercising little by little and have it work. p.s there’s lots of info on amazon and linus pauling’s stuff (the vit C doctor) that’s very beneficial and cutting edge for heart (that’s where i am at at the moment) – i’m taking my life (and heart) back!! Good luck…
