Brenda takes control of her health with Eat to Live!

In October of 2007, I was admitted to the hospital with an irregular heart beat and high blood pressure, 195/92. I had been experiencing both ailments for several months, but it finally got severe enough that the doctor wanted to run some tests. $7,000 later, I was put on Toprol with the hopes of eliminating the problem. It didn't. My dosage was increased and Hydrochlorothiazide added.

With a family history of high blood pressure and heart disease, I decided to try the Eat To Live program. Amazingly within 4 days my blood pressure dropped, and within a week I was off all medications and doing fine. I have lost 10 pounds (138 down to 128) and have even convinced my sister to try the diet. She has lost 13 pounds.

I have been a member of Curves exercise gym almost 3 years now, but exercise just wasn't enough to solve my problem. I had to follow the Eat to Live way of eating to solve my health problem.
