I was consuming sugar through a lemonade product I didnt know hsd so much sugar. My BP dropped 30 points in less than a week. My studies of all the drugs they offered led me to the conclusion that the medical/pharmacutical industry is more interested in addressing symptoms than causes. The side affects of most "blood thinners" many times lead to more drugs to counter newer issues.
